Thursday Camp

Unfortunately due to the severe storms that came through our area on Tuesday evening we had to cancel camp on Wednesday due to storm damage and power outages. 

A huge thank you to Jim McDonough's family and staff, Dominion Energy and Gibson's Rental for getting us back up and running for camp on Thursday!  

Everyone showed up on Thursday ready to go! 




In crafts, campers continued to work on their Ocean Diorama and made finger print mats for our 2022 Donors. 











A Little Magic- Miniature Horse Therapy Team, came to visit camp on Thursday. During station 3 campers got to decorate the ponies, throw horseshoes, and learn about grooming and leading. 














In the ring, campers worked hard to brush up on their riding skills! With the horse show only one day away, we had a LOT of work to do! The campers loved learning to trot, have egg and spoon races, and practice putting a stick in the bucket! 

















For entertainment, we got to watch the mini ponies perform tricks... including shooting a basketball! 







Thursday's snack and cool pops were provided by Christ Anglican Church.


We had a great visit from Orange County Public School's Superintendent Dr. Hornick, Director of Special Education, Susan Aylor, and Director of Elementary Education,  Judy Anderson.
