*costs for 2008
Applications require a $100
non-refundable deposit which is applied toward summer camp fees.
This fee will not be refunded, if a camper does not
enroll or is withdrawn prior to the start of camp.
Additional expenses are incurred for campers who choose the Beginning Horsemanship courses. Campers intending to participate in
Beginning Horsemanship should bring their own riding boots (helmets will
be provided).
As camper safety is our priority, our well-trained staff supervises all
activities and medical personnel are on-site at all times. In the unlikely
event that a camper requires additional medical attention such as a
doctor visit or x-rays charges will be the parents responsibility.
Physicals and tuberculosis tests are required prior to camp registration.
