EQUESTRIAN DAY CAMP ALL LEVELS (Rising 3rd - Rising 9th Grades)
Campers must be 8 years old before the first day of camp Week long Equestrian Day Camps are offered on the Greenway Campers of all levels will improve their horsemanship and riding skills while making new friends who share their passion for horses. Camp meets at the Greenway Stables each day and each week of camp offers an optional Thursday overnight at the barn.
A brief evaluation will be given to each rider on the first day of camp and the Camp Director will place campers in the group that best fits their riding level. We will do our best to place campers in the group where they will be able to learn and improve the most, however, campers may be moved to a more suitable group at the discretion of the Camp Director. All groups will play games, learn parts of a horse, saddles and bridles and will have a snack each day. As opportunities arise, campers will be able to help with farm chores, watch a horse get new shoes or see the veterinarian in action! Below are examples of camp riding groups offered (subject to change based on camp attendance and rider skill level):
