Discovery Camps &
Camp Giddy Up

Openings are still available for this summer's Discovery Camps and Camp Giddy Up! Discovery Camps are back and ready for your child to come up and have a good time. If you do not know if your child is ready for a full week of camp, no worries; we are offering a 3-day intro to camp for those 6-9 yrs old. We are also offering a Crusaders (cognitive) overnight camp, as well as Camp Xtreme for campers with physical disabilities.
At Camp Giddy Up, each camp is themed to provide a more successful experience to each participant. Smaller camper numbers allow for more one-on-one attention and increased horse interaction time. For full camp information, visit us ONLINE!

The pining of the Purple Heart was performed by SSG Hines's father, himself a 3 time recipient of the Purple Heart for his own service to our country during the Vietnam War. Check out some PHOTOS from the event on our Facebook page. |
