what makes camp special

Professional Guidance

All camp activities are designed and supervised by a team of Camp Leaders, including a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with specialized training in equine-assisted learning and and an Early Childhood Educator who both have decades of personal experience working with horses.

Small Group Focus

With a maximum of 12 children per session and a 1 : 4 adult-to-child ratio, each camper receives personalized attention and guidance.

Safety First

Safety protocols are our priority. All horses have personally worked with Camp Leaders. First Aid and Fire Extinguishers on-site, as well as CPR certified adults.

Developmentally Appropriate

Activities are tailored to the ages and developmental needs of our campers, ensuring everyone can participate successfully regardless of previous horse experience.
