Our spots are limited, and we will run with enhanced health procedures to protect everyone! We will adhere to all regulations and guidelines including masks, social distancing, hand washing, and sanitizing of tack & equipment and heavy use areas. Please check with Jen PRIOR to sending registration to ensure there is a spot(s) open.
We offer horse camps for ages 5 & up.
At Vandermere Farm, we offer half day and full day horse camps in the spring and summer. Campers ages 5 & up will learn all about horses, horsemanship, and how to groom, tack & ride. We also incorporate arts & crafts, fun games & activities. Children will have daily riding lessons (weather permitting) and have the opportunity to learn more about horses, proper grooming & , tacking, participate in horse related activities, create horse crafts & tie dye t-shirts! We also take nature walks and have a water play day. We have Western Wednesdays and Fun Fridays! Each day & week is different!
