Big Bear Horse Camps
Spring Day Camp at Bear Valley Farms
April 2-5, 2018 9am-4pm
This Day Camp will be a fun all-things-horse program that will take our campers through classroom, tack rooms, stalls, barns, arenas, pastures and trails.
Campers will be evaluated and divided into groups by the instructors. All will participate in fun activities that include learning the basics (terminology, different styles of tack/riding), developing safe habits and learning emergency procedures, practicing riding through transitions in the arena, and finally exploring our trails on horseback.
Riders will earn certifications at the end of the camp for skills accomplished that can be brought back to future camps or lessons at Bear Valley Farms. These certifications will help document the riders progress so everyone can advance their riding skills.
Each day of the camp runs from 9am-4pm.
