CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Belinda Engler, director, has been a Special Education teacher for 19 years. She believes that teaching youth to work around a horse safely is always the first step in a successful learning experience. Keeping lessons fun by teaching a skill and then playing games that use that skill has been a rewarding format.

A high rider/wrangler ratio (2/1) and limited number of campers ( just 6 per camp) keeps accidents to a minimum.

Grooming and groundwork(leading, training) are essential. If the horse obeys the camper when he/she is on the ground, then there is a good chance that the horse will obey him/her when he/she is on their back.

Riders begin to ride bareback to develop their balance and progress to a saddle as they show ability to control the horse in the arena at a walk and trot.
Both English and Western saddle/styles are offered.
Campers learn to saddle and bridle their own horse.

Riders may begin cross country riding after progressing to a saddle. Trail rides are offered for the more advanced riders.
A Show n Ride Party will be held in the evening ,the last day of camp. This is a time when parents and friends can come see what the campers have learned.

Fun show opportunities on dates TBA throughout the summer are offered to all levels of riders.

CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: A limited number of Wrangler and Jr. Wrangler positions are available at Engler Farm Horsemanship Camps. Youth 12 through 19 may apply for multiple camps. These are opportunities for youth to learn more about horses while developing their leadership skills.
