GIRLS HORSE CAMP!!
Hey Girls! Here we go again!  Another season will soon be here and it'll be time to saddle up and ride!
     This year we're going to be hosting some very special guests.  "Dr. Erica", a veterinarian, will be here to explain what it takes to be a horse doctor.  "Jen", the farrier, will take us through the process of trimming and shoeing a horse.  And of course Kayla and Kaylee will be here once again giving hands on lessons on training and showing your horse.
All that and still get 3 hours of riding every day!
     Your day will start with a very special "alarm clock"!  After breakfast you will get your own horse to love and learn on.  Each day before you head out for your first ride you will be grooming, saddling, and bridling your horse.  After riding, your day will be filled with horse craft time, riding, games, secret pasture picnics, more riding, hayrides and of course an evening campfire to share your stories from the day.  
     As you can see, we're all about the horses here, that's why Wild West is the best!
 
The horses are here! Will you be?
Sign up soon, I expect this will be a very busy summer for
Wild West Girls Horse Camp!

Rawhide Ranch, a Southern California tradition since 1963, is famous for providing campers from all over the world with a taste of ranch life. The camp is located approximately 45 min. north of San Diego, CA near the village of Fallbrook.

Campers learn to ride in our nationally accredited western riding program. The daily schedule features western riding & vaulting (gymnastics on horseback) instruction, animal care time, animal & horse science classes along with a variety of electives to choose from such as roping, archery, drama, farm life, crafts, intro to rodeo, climbing tower, dance, as well as swimming/water slide.

The overnight program is a co-ed program for ages 7-15. One week or multiple week sessions are available. Great for beginning/intermediate riders.

When campers arrive to begin their summer camp adventure, families will be greeted by a host of new sights and sounds to welcome you to Rawhide Ranch. As you help your camper get settled in there will be plenty of time to meet your child’s counselor and explore the ranch together before you say your goodbyes. The days will fly by and before you know it the Grand Entry music will be playing to welcome the families back to the ranch for the closing day festivities. (If your camper is traveling alone by air we will be happy to arrange for transportation to/from the San Diego airport.)

A summer horse camp experience will provide a lifetime of memories along with a new sense of independence, accomplishment, and pride as new skills are learned, new friendships are made, and a chance to joy a slower pace of life.

River Way Ranch Camp, a co-educational resident camp located in the beautiful foothills of Sequoia National Park, attracts children from all over the world. Awarded the #1 Family Business Award in 2008 and scoring 100% on the American Camp Association Accredition in 2008, River Way has been deemed 'one of the best camps in the United States'.

Children choose from 75 exciting activities. In addition to regular camp activities, River Way offers classes in wakeboarding, water-skiing, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, tennis, digital photography, film, journalism, paintball, trampoline center, sailing, mini-bikes, waverunners and go-karts. Trips to the local waterslide park and overnight to the Sequoias are also favorites. River Way campers enjoy four 1-1/2 hour activity periods daily and conclude with a fun evening program. River Way hires a staff in excess of 140 people and requires them to attend 7-10 days of training which focuses on building self esteem, conflict resolution, team building and all aspects of safety and supervising campers throughout each day. The Buckaroos, ages 7-9, have two counselors with each cabin group at all times. They receive a challenging, diversified schedule, teaching them many new skills. All campers will also have an opportunity to earn iron-on T-shirt patches in all activities.

In addition to River Way Ranch Camp, Wonder Valley Family Camp offers 2 - 1 week sessions in August. If your children are too young for River Way, you might want to try the Family Camp, where everyone can participate in age appropriate activities for the entire family.

We feature a small, but challenging cross-country course across our 23 acres, as well as a round pen and arena complete with 10-12 jumps. We also have swimming pool that invites games, especially volleyball. The kids live in a 30 foot Yurt.
Because of our size our program is personalized and comfortable for first-timers. This is a place where kids can just be kids for a week or two and indulge in horses.

Shady Lawn Ranch. We offer Western and English riding instruction and give campers the opportunity to help give total care of the horse so they learn what its like to own a horse. If your child keeps pestering you about wanting a horse, this is the camp for you. We also offer a program for higher level riders as well. Youth camps are scheduled regularly throughout the summer and during school breaks.

Campers enjoy daily riding lessons and horsemanship activities with fun and educational games both on and off of the horses. This is a program that aims at giving kids a good sense of working with and around horses while having lots of fun and being safe. Other activities include some arts & crafts, creek play time, cooking and just being a kid at a barn! Camp sessions are limited to 10 campers in order to give everyone more individual attention in their riding and work with the horses. We have a wide range of horses and ponies available for all ages and levels.

In each camp you will learn about horses - how to ride them and how to care for them. Each of the five different programs for children focuses on different aspects of horse care and riding. All camps are conducted by owner Judy Gerhard. Judy has over 35 years experience in riding instruction and has been breeding and showing arabians for over 20 years. She has experience in both english and western riding, has been a part of riding clubs, drill teams, parades (including seven years in the Tournament of Roses), 4-H, endurance riding, trail riding, horse training, and therapeutic riding instruction. She has run horse camps for children for over 10 years.

Presented in a safe, nurturing, team-oriented environment, our programs reinforce the value of family, and community.

Choosing the right summer program for your child is a difficult and important decision. At uCamps we strive to make families feel comfortable and excited about their decision. The major goals of our programs are to bring fun, joy, self-confidence, acceptance, love, friendship, and community to all our campers. Participants are given the opportunity to discover their inner strengths, realize new talents, expand their imagination, and develop trust, acceptance, teamwork, and a high level of self-esteem.

Our dedicated staff is hand selected to work with your child. Staff is hired based on strength of character, past experience, ability to connect with and inspire children, a desire to share, and the ability to lead and serve as a positive role model. Our staff also includes instructional specialists who are hired to lead specific skill-based workshops. Workshop leaders are not only hired for their experience and ability to teach, but also for their nurturing, fun, and caring natures.

uCamps - U choose the camp for U!:

F.A.M.E. Camp: F.A.M.E. Camp (Film.Acting.Music.Enthusiasts.) is for campers with a strong desire to become an actor, filmmaker, and/or rockstar!! Campers choose a “major” in one of three key areas and enjoy a fun program while receiving an expansive training from our team of industry professionals.

Discovery Camp: Discovery Camp is perfect for first time campers as well as seasoned pros. Discover all the fun, friendship, sports, games, adventure, art, and amazing staff uCamps has to offer!!!

The Original SDC: Summer Drama Camp (SDC) is the program that started it all. Campers design their own program from start to finish. This magical camp combines the best of the worlds of art, sports and the outdoors in one amazing place.

uCamps SoCal: Spend a week in the beautiful mountains near Big Bear Lake and have the experience of a lifetime! Campers design their own program, choosing the activities they like best while making friends and working with our amazingly fun staff. It doesn't matter if you are shy or outgoing, young or old, everyone is treated like a rock star! Ride horses, make films, be in a rock band, act, sing, dance, swim, hike and play!! You can do it all at uCamps!

L.I.T Program: The Leadership in Training (LIT) Program is a dynamic leadership training for students interested in bettering themselves and the world around them. This two week training program is at once educational, transformative, hard work and tons of fun!!! Instead of participating in regular workshops with the campers, as a selected group of leaders, they attend workshops designed to improve communication, conflict resolution, team building, time management, public speaking and other skills necessary to be successful in college and in the workplace. Participants leave having learned a lot while making new friends and lifelong memories. Graduation from the program is NOT a guarantee for job placement with uCamps, but it is a prerequisite for students interested in working for uCamps in the future. In the second week of the program, L.I.T.s work directly with the campers; leading games and activities, working in the cabin and serving as positive role models.
