Wednesday Camp

Everyone has fallen into a good routine now! The campers enjoyed a good game of Simon Says and I Spy while riding today and of course trotting!

In arts and crafts the campers painted boot planters, painted sea shell jars to make an "Ocean in a Jar," signed pillow cases as thank you gifts for the horse owners and painted a few more sea shells!

They learned about different disciplines and types of tack in horse education along with how to tack up a horse! As always, they had to spend some time grooming on Cody!

The Orange Volunteer Fire Department came today and the campers were able to try on turn out gear, spray water, and learn about different pieces of equipment they carry.
