Horsemanship Summer Camp:
If you like horses and want to learn more about them, then the Spring Valley Horsemanship Camp is for you! We offer full and half-day sessions throughout the summer. Our highly qualified instructors teach a wide variety of horse care and horsemanship topics. Sessions are small so please register early.
For those who choose our full day session, a Student Horse Show will be held on the last day (Friday) of that session week. Parents, friends and relatives are encouraged to attend and watch the skills that the students have mastered. Various awards are given to the riders acknowledging their progress and participation. Our half-day students end the session with a scenic full hour trail ride.
