The Educated Rider
2010 Summer Workshop Series
The most comprehensive riding and horsemanship camp in Houston!
The Program
During the Educated Rider workshop, your
child will learn good stewardship through hands-on activities designed to teach safe horse handling, grooming, diet & nutrition, and first aid.
We are very proud of our program and of our excellent teacher-student ratio; there will never be more than 8 students per session, with two
groups of 4 riders. Each group will have 1-2 trained assistants & side walkers, enabling us to accommodate first-time riders through advanced
equestrians.
Your child will ride each day with one of our experienced instructors, on one of our well-schooled lesson horses; learn to lead, groom, tack and
exercise a horse; learn about horse breeds, colors, characteristics and herd behavior; and experience hands-on what horsemanship is all about!
Cost
The cost per session is $300.00 per child. The fee to attend on a per-day basis is $75.00.
Hours are 9am-2pm. Extended day sessions are available at the rate of $15/hr per child between 2pm-5pm.
Late pickups (after 5pm) will be charged $15/¼ hr.
Payment is required to hold your child's slot.
