Did your kids like the pony ride today? Send them to Riding Day Camp OR if they are 4th grade and above, sign them up for the ultimate experience: a week at Herman’s Ranch Camp. Spend quality time at the barn each day and then join in on all of the resident camp fun too! At the end of the week, you can participate in a horse show to show off the skills you’ve gained during the week! Campers who participate at Herman’s may learn how to trot, canter, jump or even learn dressage riding…The possibilities are endless!

 

Horseback Outpost Trip = Incredible Experience!

We had 7 campers join our horseback outpost trip this year. The campers, joined by my Ms. Skittles, Ms. Seal, and Ms. Tiny took our horses and ponies out to Brushy Creek Park for a week-long adventure. The girls covered over 20 miles of trails. In-between riding and caring for the horses, campers learned camp craft skills, went swimming, and formed life-long bonds. Check out the great pictures from Ms. Skittles!

Prepping a delicious trail meal.

Tent Camping

Swimming at the lake.

The girls prepared a trip song to sing at council fire. Filled with jokes and memories from the adventure, the girls couldn't help but double over in laughter as they sang.

Two campers earned their Gypsy Honors at Council Fire.

One Camper earned her Voyager tie along with Mr. AC.

Check back next year to see what outpost trip offerings we have! It’s a great time to adventure, push yourself,  and gain skills and confidence in the outdoors with camp friends.
