Bridge Acres Stable’s 2017 summer camp program dates are June 12-16, June 19-23, July 10-14, and July 24-28. Camp runs Monday through Friday from 9 am until 3 pm. Each day, campers ride for two hours, eat a lunch provided from home, do crafts, go on scavenger hunts, paint horse shoes, and much more. Field trips to the blacksmith to watch him work on horseshoes and to the vet for important questions about veterinary care will delight and educate campers. Campers must be at least six years old and no older than thirteen years old to participate. No riding experience is necessary, and campers may sign up for more than one week of camp.
