Our Summer Camp Horse Experience offers a safe and integrated horse and ranch experience for children ages 6-10. Please note that Summer Camp is NOT a part of our therapeutic riding program and we do not provide therapeutic riding staff or support during our summer camp sessions. If you are interested in therapeutic riding or are unsure if this camp is suitable for your child, please contact  summercamp@heartsriding.org

This unique summer learning experience includes:

  • Horsemanship skills
  • How to take care of your horse
  • Horse science learning - learn the parts of a horse and what makes each horse unique
  • Horse art projects
  • Unmounted horse activities - get to know your horse and the power of non-verbal communication
  • Horse herd observation - learn how it relates to peer development
  • Three 1-hour riding lessons with a certified riding instructor
