Camps
Summer camps at H&G provide a fun, safe, educational week of horse-riding and horse-related activities
for beginners through intermediate riders ages 6 and older. Held weekly during the summer in our three
outdoor riding rings, camps are taught by highly qualified, enthusiastic instructors, who along with
assistant instructors and great school horses, provide small group instruction in all aspects of
horsemanship. Campers learn quickly, get personal attention and gain confidence in their riding skills.
H&G offers three unique camps: Beginner Horsemasters, Intermediate Travel Camp, and Advanced Horse Management
and Training. Click here to see our 2010 brochure.
