Girl Scout Horse Programs

We have been approved by the local Girl Scout Councel to provide our facility for the local girl scouts to earn their badges and horse requirements.

Ages

We can help Brownies, Juniors and Cadets earn their Horse Patches. At this time all we can do with Daiseys is let them pet horses and groom. There is no riding activities available for Daiseys.

2012 Dates

If we have bad weather camp will be canceled.

Girl Scouts are more than welcome to attend any camp that is open to the public.

Times

We will open our farm to Girl Scouts in 4 hour incriments on an as needed basis. Please call and set an appointment. We are a working farm so call to plan your day as early as possible. We are a working farm and attend horse shows and have other activities going on. We will gladly work around our schedule for the Girl Scouts.

Terms

Balance is due on they day of participation. If you are paying by check it must be a troop check. We gladly accept cash.

If you do not board with us and want to bring your own horse there is not a fee to bring your own horse. We really recommend that your child have their own horse. It helps them learn what to do when they are doing it with their own horse. Please also bring hay and grain that your horse is accustomed to eating. We will stable your horse in its own private Paddock. Horses must have a negative coggins test, and all horses from out of state must also have a health certificate within 30 days.

No refunds will be given in the event of dismissal or withdrawal from horse camp on the account of homesickness or misconduct. In the event of an illness requiring the attention of a physician, or a death in the family, your child can enter another session of camp or a prorated amount of the unused fee for the unexpired portion of the term will be refunded.

Enrollment will be on a first come first served basis so it is recommended that you reserve your child's space early to insure availability of preferred dates if attending a camp open to the public.
