A Day at Camp
horseback riding and other fun for girls and boys
Campers have a wonderful time riding horses at our summer camp. Girls and boys enjoy horseback riding in the ring, trail riding, and pony club games.
Forrestel is a riding camp. Our Equestrian Program is top notch. Children who are not interested in horseback riding enjoy our Sports & Adventure Program.
