This week-long camp is a leveled horsemanship program geared for ages 12 and above. Passing each level requires the rider to pass both a written test and a riding test. The written test might include topics such as horse anatomy, whereas the riding test might include a demonstration of successful flying lead changes, depending on the level of the rider. Interspersed with the learning sessions are games and activities suited to the abilities of the riders. A certificate is given after a rider has passed each level. One-on-one, as well as group, instruction is provided by qualified instructors. Campers are paired with a 777 Ranch horse that is appropriate for their riding skill level. At the completion of the program, graduates are awarded with a silver buckle. They will also learn how to rope with a lariat rope and have a roping competition at the end of the week. Activity time is also scheduled each day with a variety of activities such as kayaking, swimming, crafts, games, and marksmanship. There are also chapel times each day with great speakers that teach the Bible. Whether your child is a beginner or advanced in the area of horsemanship, they will have a great time and learn a lot!
