Girls Horse Equestrian Camp

Toward the end of each session at camp, we have a day of “barn games.” It’s when we come up with fun activities a little different from the regular summer camp riding lessons. For example, we’ll decorate a horse or two with colorful (and washable!) paint, and maybe play “red light, green light,” but one of the most popular is the “Apple Hunt.” This is when the riding instructors hide several apples out in the fields, and the girls are challenged to ride around and find the apples. One apple is marked, and the rider who finds it gets a special prize. They’re all great fun!

Be sure to check out the comments for this post… More than 300! Wow!

Cara writes from Laurinburg, “Annie, whom Rockbrook has owned for about 14 years, is loving her life as a school pony at St. Andrews. She is our ONLY pony at the lesson barn where 90% of our lessons are held, and so is very popular. She got all her hair buzzed off for a show back in February.”

Here she is!

Our Equestrian Director, Cara, writes that “all is well in Laurinburg, North Carolina with the Rockbrook horses. We hosted a horse show on February 4th. Annie was body clipped and got to be in the show! Danny and Pistol are fat and happy and Zee Slew is enjoying life just being Cara’s favorite horse!”

That’s Cara on Zee in the photo.
