It doesn’t matter if you ride or show, or if you’ve never been in the saddle, there’s an OHC youth activity for all future equestrians. For those who have never experienced trail riding, 3-day horse camps are hosted by OHC. Each camper is assigned a horse that becomes their responsibility and you learn to care for it, groom and feed, and ride. If you have your own horse, you can bring it to camp, too.
