Each camp includes lots of unique activities ranging from riding, equine education, arts and crafts, and games. For children enrolling in multiple camps throughout the summer, each camp will offer its own unique experience.

Horsemanship: With one of Windfall’s qualified instructors, our little campers will learn about horse colors, how horses communicate with each other, the basics of horse care, and of course, an introduction to how to ride a pony! Of course, education is always more fun with games, making it all the more memorable.

Arts + Crafts: Each camp is unique, with a craft that will give each camper something to remember their experience. Crafts vary from camp to camp, from picture frames with photos from camp to tie-dyed camp t-shirts and decorated horse shoes.

Other activities:  Weather permitting, campers may do a variety of activities such as nature walks, driving miniature horses, and outdoor games.
