Program Description
Riding a horse is one of the most exciting things you can do! But ask any good horseback rider their secret to success, and they'll say that understanding a horse is as important as learning to ride one.
During this overnight session, get clued into horses by learning about how to care for horses, what equipment you need, rider lingo and more before grooming, helping tack your horse, and going on a ride. Girls and adults will ride in the arena for 1-hour and have a 1-hour horse care lesson. Time spent away from the stables will be spent enjoying a campfire program, interviewing a Girl Scout camp horse expert, creating a horse themed craft, and making a treat to give the horses!
Please note that housing may be shared with other family units.
Girl Scout Juniors will earn the Horseback Riding badge.

Participants with Special Needs
If the participant has any special needs that you would like to discuss directly with us, please email info@gsutah.org. Note: The Program Lead receives a report that includes any medical or behavioral information that was entered on the participant’s health form during registration.
Insect Related Diseases
With participants spending a majority of their time outside while at camp, participants are subject to the potential exposure of diseases associated with insect bites, such as West Nile Virus, Zeka Virus, lice, bed bugs, and Lyme disease, among others. Participants can take precautions against insect bites by wearing long sleeves, long pants, and mosquito repellant containing DEET – especially in the early morning and evening hours when insect activity is higher.
Dietary Needs
The camps can facilitate basic special diets, including lactose-intolerance, vegetarian, gluten-free, and simple allergies. When you registered for your program, you were asked about the participant’s dietary needs and the severity of any food allergies to ensure that we can plan meals accordingly.
Participants with severe food allergies must be fully able to manage their allergies at camp and know not to eat any food that they are allergic to. We do our best to accommodate but cannot guarantee that a participant will not come into contact with a specific type of food or allergen during their stay. If the participant has severe dietary restrictions and food allergies, please contact us at info@gsutah.org.
Meals and Snacks
Meals and snacks will be provided as listed in the Program Specific Information section. Any food or beverages brought to camp by participants needs to be kept in a vehicle, stored in a camp kitchen, or with them during the day (i.e., in backpack).
