Children's Summer Riding Camp

We have been offering camps at Aspengrove for 18 years and we are now going to have camps for students with their own horses only, with a maximum of 15 students instead of 30.

From the program's start, students learn how to handle themselves around horses and how to keep themselves and their horses safe. Students learn how to catch, halter, lead, groom, saddle and bridle.

All campers will receive two classes of riding each day (approximately 4 hours including grooming and tacking). Time is allowed for students to enjoy other activities both indoors and out.

Periodic evaluations are made so that each student has the opportunity to advance as their ability increases. We encourage campers to stay for more than one session, as progress tends to compound with each successive week.

Our highly structured program provides excellent training by certified instructors for those just learning to ride, while teaching the finer points of equitation and jumping to the experienced rider. All students learn how to handle themselves around horses and how to keep themselves and their mounts safe.
