Dear Parent,
Thank you for your interest in Latta Plantation Equestrian Center Day Camp. Our camp sessions run
Monday through Friday each day of the week, beginning June 14th, 2010 and ending the week of
August 16th 2010. There will be no camp the 1st week of July.
We will be offering both beginner riders’ camp and intermediate riders’ camp. The rider must be 7 or
older by their camp week. The intermediate camp will be available to campers that have attended the
beginner camp or have had 8 hours of riding lessons. At this level, our campers will proceed to lope,
including trotting on diagonals, balance of horse and rider, school figures, correct leads and
maneuvering around patterns. Lessons are on flat work only working with communication skills,
balance and body alignment.
Our riding lessons during camp will be coordinated by one of our riding instructors. We will also
have classroom sessions to include training of key topics that every rider should know. These classes
are designed to build our rider’s self confidence while teaching horsemanship safety. The lessons
concentrate on safety first, proper grooming, communication skills, body alignment, balance and an
independent seat which are the building blocks in becoming a good rider.
Of course we will also have lots of time for games and group activities providing fun and
entertainment all week long. The camp week is structured to provide our campers with good
‘horse sense’ while having lots of fun.
Reservations must be made at least two weeks in advance. A $50.00 non-refundable deposit must be
paid at time of registration. Camp cost is $300.00 per week. A release form must be turned in with your
deposit.
Camp will begin each weekday at 9:00 am and finish at 4:00 pm. If arrangements are not made for earlier
drop off or later pickup, we will be charging $15.00 per ½ hour before 9:00 or after 4:00. For an 8:00 to
5:30 day, “pre-arranged”, we will charge a flat fee of $100.00 for the week. Hours extending beyond 8:00
to 5:30 will incur additional charges.
Parents are required to provide their child with lunch; we will provide morning and afternoon snacks
and drinks.
