Riding

Beginning at 9:00 am, the first activity is a one-hour riding lesson. This is followed by an instructional clinic covering all aspects of horsemanship. Stables and horse management, horse health care, tack maintenance and grooming will be covered thoroughly by our staff. A second one-hour riding lesson is included in the afternoon activities. Students are required to be at a level of being able to walk and trot in a group before attending camp; this could take as many as 10 lessons for the novice student. An evaluation is required if you are not already an RHS student.

RHS offers a one-week session for the Intermediate and Advanced Riders. This session covers more technical work both on horseback and on the ground. An introduction to teaching will also be included.

RHS also offers a horse camp for beginner riders, this is held during the third week of July. No experience is required, and is open to anyone 5 years old and up. This includes 1 riding lesson daily, arts & crafts, and hands on horse care. There will be a pizza party on the last day of camp. This session will run from 9 am to 1 pm.

Lunch
