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 15th, 2009 and ending the week of August 17th
2009. 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.
