For people who like horses, nothing can create memories of a lifetime like attending a quality Summer Horse Camp. Summers spent at riding camps can create friendships and experiences that children or adults will cherish forever.  You want your child to have a fun and exciting summer camp experience that you can feel comfortable about.  Stepping Stone Ranch can please both parents and children with a fun-filled daily itinerary with a dedication to safety. We will show you or your child the unique and beautiful relationship between horse and rider. We strive to give students the confidence and self-esteem that comes from riding and handling horses with thoughtfulness and respect.

 


Days are organized to give students a well-rounded equine education that includes safety measures, hands-on horse care, English riding everyday, stable activities, and lots of information about horses and riding in general.  There will also be craft activities and nature walks. 

 

We are experienced in teaching students of all ages the joy of learning in a safe environment that emphasizes cooperation and respect. Our head riding instructor is an accomplished rider and teacher, and has years of experience in the equine field.  Experienced, caring staff, and a fun, upbeat atmosphere teaching respect for the animals and responsibility coupled with our comprehensive learning program give you, your child and your horse an equestrian experience of a lifetime.
