Summer Fun: Deer Antler Riding Camps

Learn to Ride

Riding a horse is a fun thing to do and kids have that opportunity daily at Deer Antler Riding Camps. Each child or teen receives lessons individualized to his/her riding level, plus a whole lot more.

Camp not only introduces beginning riders to horses and horsemanship but it also enhances the riding skills of intermediate riders with experiences beyond their weekly lessons. At the end of each camp week, riders give a little horse show for their families.

Single RiderLove a Horse

Horses are fascinating animals. Campers learn all about their characteristics, behavior, personality traits, health and nutrition needs, and they learn how to use and care for equine equipment. Caring for an assigned horse provides them with hands-on learning

Sessions for girls and boys, ages 6 to 15, run from 9am to 2pm, Monday through Friday. Extended care can be arranged. The weekly fee is $240.00. A $50.00 deposit is required at time of registration. A $20.00 discount applies to summer registrations made before June 1st. Click here to download an application.

Field RiderFun and Safety

The camp environment emphasizes safety procedures and respect for the size and strength of the horses. Age appropriate games, crafts and activities (some water play) ensure that it’s not all work and no play!

Riding Apparel

Long pants, hard-soled shoes with a heel (no sneakers), and an approved riding helmet are required. Beginners may borrow a helmet. Bring lighter clothes to change into after riding, if you wish. Bring a bag lunch. Beverages are available from a soda/juice machine or bring your own.
