The camp will begin at 8:00 a.m. and will finish on 5:00 p.m. each day. Campers must be dropped off daily at the P. Whitaker Arena at 8:00 a. m. by a parent or designated adult (if camper is to be picked up by other than parent, permission and picture ID required prior to the start of camp) and picked up between 5 and 5:30 p.m. A limit of 60 campers will be accepted on a first-come first-serve basis. Campers will be grouped into 'classes' of approximately 15, and will participate in each activity in these small groups. There will be daily handling and riding of horses as well as other 'class room' activities. Lunch and 2 break periods will be incorporated into each day of camp. Campers will be assigned to horses based on experience level. Time for recreational activities and tours of campus will be arranged.
