Summer Day Camps

Alma Equine summer camps offer a meaningful blend of time with horses, outdoor exploration, and creative activities in a supportive, small-group environment, including one-on-one instruction from Jenny Whitman.

During our time with horses, campers will learn how to:

  • Read the body language of horses interacting with each other and with students

  • Communicate safely with a horse in a round-pen setting

  • Establish interpersonal boundaries in a herd environment

  • Learn basic riding skills

Outdoor exploration will include:

  • Looking for animal tracks and scat

  • Learning about different plants and animals in a natural environment

  • Connecting with nature

  • Using a 40x microscope to examine insects and plants

Creative activities include:

  • Making art using found materials and other media

Our goal:

The goal of our camps is for each student to progress according to their comfort level and come away from a week of camp with a deeper understanding of horses, themselves, and their natural environment.
