COVID-19 UPDATE: Our summer camp leadership, who are experienced and committed professionals, deeply care about our children’s health and well-being. These dedicated staff already devote themselves annually to providing safe environments, ensuring the health of both campers and staff. Our creative staff will find ways for our campers to enjoy the community of camp and the activities our campers have grown to love in a safe, well-balanced environment that mitigates “close-contact” from one child to another in the safest – yet “normal way” possible. This will include minimal mask requirements (if any) from campers by promoting outdoor programming and social distancing whenever possible.
Simple Structure & Easy Registration
Our summer structure and pricing are simple and straightforward. Regular Weeks and Equestrian “EQ” Weeks are all overnight from Sunday to Saturday.
All Summer Camp Registrations are completed online through our easy-to-use and mobile-friendly registration software. No doctors notes, no notarizations, and no mailing documents! In the following years, all your camper information is pre-filled for you while registering, including medical forms! All we ask is that you update any information that may have changed from your previous year.
