BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Blaze a Path of Discovery - for beginners to experienced - no horse experience required. We meet each young person right at their level and support them to break through to their next level of learningi. The Equine-Guided Education approach is a one-of-a-kind way to connect with horses and nature. Each of our 3 camps (April Adventures and Pioneering, Youth Leadership & Horsemanship, and Teen Camping Summit) is designed to challenge youth to bring out their best, focus, and connect with horses, nature, and each other in a deeper way.
CAMP INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES OFFERED:
Horses/Equestrian, Swimming, Adventure, Wilderness/Nature, and more.
CAMP LOCATION: We are located 30 minutes from Burlington, 20 minutes from Stowe and 10 minutes from Montpelier
CAMP FACILITIES: We have beautiful architecturally-designed horse stablesfor our 4 horses that sit on a knoll overlooking the confluence of the Winooski and Mad Rivers. For lunchtime and other activities, we use one of our campsite facilities with an outhouse, running water and wood benches circling the fireplace. We also have a beautiful, private sandy beach on a slow-moving and refreshing swimming hole. Paradise!
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: We have team-building exercises, fire-building contests, horsemanship and riding (without bits or hard saddles) and much more. These camps are chock full of learning many new things. It's an experiential camp that's talked about for months afterward.
Strengthening youth leadership through horsemanship, natural outdoor challenge and playing team, we coach a positive “can-do” mindset with confidence and a spirit of achievement and connection that is fun, contagious and fulfilling. Programs aim to build good character and nurture leadership and team skills in every young person and young adult so they can make a better world tomorrow!
“Thank you for offering such a great leadership program. My daughter’s confidence has increased and she has identified her strengths as a leader – and recognized areas she can improve. All this presented in a positive way, with no judgement. Thanks for the positive program you have developed and for presenting in such a confident, loving way.” Vic G. Montpelier, VT
