CAMP RULES
1. NO OPEN TOED SHOES allowed. No exceptions. No one is allowed to participate in any riding related activities without proper footwear (No crocs, sandals, Birkenstock, etc.) This applies to all farm visitors’ parents, camp attendees, siblings, etc. Campers who do not bring proper shoes may participate in camp, but will not be riding or in close proximity to any horses for safety concerns.
REQUIRED: All rider’s are required to wear smooth, hard soled shoes or boots with at least ½inch heel. Tennis shoes may suffice for first time campers or those that do not have access to a proper riding boot with heel.
2. HELMETS will NOT be provided. Helmets are fit to size and to minimize liability, we require all attendees to bring their own certified riding helmet. Any other helmets (bike, skateboard, etc) may be used as a substitute, however riding activities will be limited to a walk. This ensures proper sizing for each individual child. Campers who do not bring a helmet will not be allowed to ride.
3. LONG PANTS are required for riding horses (No capris, no shorts). A change of clothes may be brought for activities on the ground that does not involve riding.
