Trail & Off Site Camps

3 or 5 day Camps

Each day begins with breakfast, then horses are assigned to each rider. Lunches will be packed, horses and tack will be loaded in the horse trailers and we will travel to "Why Not Ranch" for trail riding through the forest, up and down hills and through creeks. We will eat lunch on the trail and enjoy every new discovery around each bend and on top of each hill on every trail we travel. "Why Not Ranch" is 30 minutes away from the center and covers 900 acres with well groomed and very safe trails. At the end of the day we travel back to Equine Training Center where we will swim, eat and do horse related crafts. Each day will end with fellowship and a bonfire (weather pending.) Meals, drinks and snacks will be provided.

All riders and myself will bunk in the activity center for the night.

All off site camps will have a maximum of 6 riders with 3 adult riders supervising.

Riders that sign up for the off site camps must demonstrate basic horsemanship and horse handling skills before the 1st day of camp (walk, trot, canter or gate, stop and back.)

Contact Jan Stroup to set up a time to demonstrate rider abilities.
