Lakes Region Riding Academy offers a summer horse camp program for children age 5 and up who are interested in learning all about horses.  Camp is a great way for students to gain hands-on experience while building confidence and making new friends.  Our day camp provides students the opportunity to learn and grow as a young equestrian in a safe, friendly atmosphere.  We work with children of all abilities- from the 
advanced show rider to the first-timer who just loves horses. 

So come to camp!  We look forward to a summer of fun!
