JPEC Hit The Trails - Intermediate Summer Camp

July 11-15, 2016 || 9am-2pm - Ages 10-14
REGISTRATION CLOSES July 1, 2016

For the more experienced rider - Campers must be able to tack their own horse, ride independently, and trot comfortably on a loose rein before attending this camp. Students will learn riding skills based on safe horsemanship, horse care, responsibility and multiple riding styles in a fun and energetic environment. All of our equestrian instruction is cumulative and applicable to each specific student. Our campers are in groups of like-minded individuals throughout the day. However, on the horse, their time and experiences are very much their own. We'll take multiple trail rides through out the week and tackle common trail obstacles in the arena.

This is a working camp - Campers are expected to participate in the daily chores and activities involved in horse care and responsibility. We instill a positive work ethic and sense of responsibility and accountability in our young riders that provides a direct gain in self esteem and confidence in overcoming obstacles, mastering communication skills and developing a great sense of teamwork.

Horse and equipment are provided. Campers should wear jeans and sturdy shoes as well as bring a packed lunch and water bottle for the day. Lunches that need refrigeration can be kept in our concession area.

Cost for 5 day summer camp is $250 per child.
