The first day Campers arrive at 9am and gather for a welcome session. They will be introduced to the staff, fellow campers, and, of course, the horses. Safety briefings and an overview of the day’s activities are provided.
**Horse Care and Grooming:** The day often begins with lessons on horse care and grooming. Campers learn how to brush, saddle, and prepare horses for riding. This hands-on experience fosters a bond between the child and the horse, emphasizing the importance of trust and responsibility.
**Riding Lessons:** After grooming, campers participate in riding lessons tailored to their skill levels. Campers learn basic riding techniques in a controlled environment.
**Break for Snacks:** Mid-morning, campers take a break for snacks and hydration, sharing experiences and making friends while enjoying the outdoors.
**Educational Activities:** After the break, campers might engage in educational sessions. These could include topics like horse anatomy, nutrition, and understanding horse behavior. Hands-on activities, such as leading a horse or learning about different breeds, enhance their knowledge.
**Afternoon Activities**
After lunch we have a slip and slide if the campers want to take part in that for cooling off fun. Other may want to do a horse theme craft activity
As the day comes to an end, campers gather for cleanup around the farm, pick up any trash that was dropped etc and get their belongings together for a closing circle to reflect on what they learned and share their favorite moments. This can include discussing new skills, favorite horses, or friendships made throughout the day.
**Pick-Up:** Parents arrive at 2pm to pick up their children, often greeted by excited campers eager to share their experiences and newfound knowledge about horses.
Overall, our summer horse camp program offers a blend of riding, education, and fun, creating a memorable experience that builds confidence, responsibility, and a love for horses.

Our Horse Camps are very popular and fill up fast!
Each summer we hold a camp program for children ages 6 yrs old and up. No experience is necessary, camp is 9-2pm and is so much fun for the kids to spend the day at our farm were they will get hands on learning horse care and riding.
During camp your child will learn riding, horse safety and basic horse care. Sometimes we will have a visit from the vet or farrier and the kids get to ask questions and get more hands on learning. Each child brings a pack lunch but Thursday is pizza, ice cream and prize giving day!
For hot days and to help the kids cool of after lunch we have a slip n slide which is always a fun time! So pack a towel if you would like to take part in our water slide fun!
Price: $375 for the week. A $50 non-refundable deposit holds the date. If you need to drop of your child before 9am and pick up later than 2pm that can be arranged, $19 per hour extra fee. Please email irishsheets@yahoo.com for more info or call (856)4728035
