Riders will work towards earning their Green Ribbon from the American Association of Riding Schools (AARS) during this fun and activity-filled week camp. Riders will learn to stop and steer a horse, at a walk, while riding with both an english and western saddle, and while riding bareback. Trotting is introduced on a lunge line (long lead rope). Horseback riding skills, games, crafts, and other activities are planned for each daily session. Riders can advance on to Camp 2 after completion of Camp 1.

Camp 3
"Advanced Trotters"
This camp is for riders who have completed both the Green and Pink Ribbons in the AARS Junior Rider Program.

Adult Rider Camps
Adult Rider camps will occur over a weekend, and will have longer sessions than the Junior Rider Camps. Riders of all levels can use a lesson horse, or bring their own. Camp will last 6 hours for the Saturday part of the session. Saturday sessions will start at noon and last until 6pm. The Sunday session will last for 4 hours, starting at noon, and ending at 4:00 pm. Riders will learn (possibly different) material at their own pace, and individualized instruction will be given to each rider. Riders will develop riding skills, participate in discussion sessions, and learn some natural horsemanship techniques. Weekends will be set aside for adult rider camps based upon demand. Riders must be 16 or older to participate.
