Hunkapi Summer Camp Brochure 2012

Camps are designed to teach riding skills for beginner to intermediate level. This includes proper horsemanship, life skills and total equine care. Campers will create lasting relationships with others and their horse. Each camper will be assigned their own horse. Camper will receive horsemanship instruction a minimum of 50 minutes each day. The remaining time will be spent learning horse fun facts, doing arts & crafts and horse care. At the end of each session the group will de-brief on the lesson that they learned from the day and how they will be transferred into life. Riders are grouped by age and riding level. Beginner will start on bareback pads to create a more balanced seat and encourage awareness of the horse. More advanced riders are taught
in their choice of English or Western saddle. We will have extra, trained staff available for horse lovers with special needs.
