ADULT HORSE CAMP

Adult Horse Camp — Because You Were a Horse-Crazy Kid Too

Remember when you were nine years old, obsessed with horses, and would've given anything to spend a week at horse camp? This is that camp — just built for grown-ups.

Same great curriculum we run for our kids: grooming, groundwork, riding at the walk and trot, and yes — silly games like follow-the-leader on horseback.

No pressure, no judgment, no "keeping up" with anyone. Just horses, learning, and the kind of fun most adults forgot they were allowed to have.

Perfect for beginners, returning riders, or anyone finally checking "horse camp" off the childhood bucket list.

JULY 23rd 11 AM - 2 PM

AUGUST 8th 11 AM - 2 PM

Meet The Horses

  • Indy

    Hi, I'm Indy! Kristina has known me longer than most people in her life — I'm a 28-year-old Morgan, and I've been hers since I was two. I love being the center of attention and grooming is my happy place! You can brush me, braid my mane, ask me a hundred questions, and I'll just stand there happily soaking it up. In the arena, I'll trot all day if you ask. I promise I'll take good care of you on your first ride.

  • Tiki

    Hi, I'm Tiki! I'm a 25-year-old pony from the Owyhee reservation, and I've been just about everything in my life — trail pony, jumper, cross country runner, and (rumor has it) a cart pony too. Now I teach kids to walk, trot, and canter, and I love every minute of it. I'll be honest — I still love to gallop. When my best friend Angel and I are turned out together, we run as fast as our legs will go. But when it's your turn to ride me, I'll take care of you. Grooming and grazing around the property are my favorite ways to spend a quiet afternoon.

  • Nick

    Hi, I'm Nick! I'm an Oldenburg warmblood and a retired Hunter/Jumper champion. These days I'm passing on what I know to kids and adults learning to canter and jump. I won't lie, I will never go any faster than I absolutely have to. But ask me nicely, and I'll give you the smoothest, most rolling canter you've ever sat on. I'm on lease from my owner in Eagle, and I love my new job teaching new riders.

  • Angel

    Hi, I'm Angel! I'm a black and white mare, and Kristina affectionately calls me the fire-breathing dragon when I get spicy. I love to run with my head and tail held high, snorting like only a dragon can. But underneath all that drama, I'm a softie — I love being groomed, doing groundwork, and most of all, when kids ride me and make me look beautiful. My best friend is Tiki — when we're turned out together, we run as fast as we can, just because we can.

  • Dash

    Hi, I'm Dash! I'm a Morgan-Quarter Horse cross, and I belong to Harper. I love going fast, I love jumping, and I love being out with my friends. If you're up for a little adventure, I'll show you what I've got.

  • Louie

    Hi, I'm Louie! I'm a Percheron-Thoroughbred cross, and Sara is my person. I'm a big sweetheart who likes to take life at a slow pace — but don't let that fool you. Sara uses me for jumping and all-around riding, and I'll show up when she asks.

  • Penny

    Hi, I'm Penny! I'm an Appendix Quarter Horse, and I belong to Ellie. I'll be straight with you — I'm the queen bee around here. A diva, fully. I require my fly mask with a cover so the sun doesn't ruin my nose, and Ellie wouldn't have it any other way. We jump together, we show together, and we make it look good.
