At Baker Creek Farm we strive to provide an experience for the equestrian in everyone. From young horse lovers to experienced riders and competitors. That is why we offer a diverse range of camps, and workshops, from beginner and young rider camps, to advanced workshops for riders looking to polish their skills and take their education to the next level.

Riders in this camp enjoy riding and learning about horses through engaging exercises designed to develop skill while building confidence through knowledge!

As a horsemanship camp, it is designed to go beyond the fundamentals of just learning to ride. This camp will introduce the meaning of “horsemanship” to students, defined as “the care, training, and riding of horses in harmony with their behavior, diet, movement and physical being.” In addition to daily riding lessons, students will learn how we feed, care for and maintain horses. Games, crafts, team competitions, and prizes are incorporated to encourage learning and most of all fun with horses!

Eligibility Requirements:

• Ages 5 & up welcome!
• No prior experience necessary!

This workshop will be an in-depth study of jumping, horsemanship, and show ring preparation, designed to prepare aspiring horseman and competitors for success in and out of the show ring.

The remainder of their day will be spent in ground lessons covering behavior, training, and lunging, as well as proper care and show preparation.
