Equestrian Summer Camp Session II

    About Camp

    Make the transition to intercollegiate riding with our College-Bound Equestrian Camp, a three-day intensive training program for high school equestrians.

    Designed for rising high school juniors and seniors, our camp sessions will focus on building not only the riding skills of students, but also increasing their knowledge about college riding and the overall college search process.

    It's a unique opportunity with limited places available. Please register by May 15, 2017.
