Experience what it is like to have a horse for a week. You will learn safety with horses as well as stuctured riding lessons and trail riding opportunties.

This is the safest and most comprehensive horse program available. Each student is responsible for a horse throughout there days at camp. Campers may have the opportunity to participate in varied phases of horsemanship, including: western, driving, trail, horse safety, horse care and more. There are structured lessons, discussions, demonstrations, trail rides, and supervised rides daily. For riders with more experience they will progress at their own speed in classes designed for their riding abilities.

At Camp Warren we believe that a session of camp can make a profound impact on a young person’s life. The Summer of 2010 is shaping up to be another fantastic year. I hope you’ll join us for at least one of our unique single-gender camp sessions.

While at Warren, campers have the opportunity to live independently in a supportive community where they can: meet new friends, try new activities, explore the natural world and gain self-reliance. Activities are designed with skill progression in mind but in a non-competitive atmosphere. For over 80 years, our well trained, energetic staff team (most of whom were once campers themselves) has provided the environment to foster this growth.

Camp Ihduhapi has small, single-gender cabin groups of 8-10 campers and 2 cabin staff, which provides individual attention and positive, small-group dynamics. Program professionals assist in areas like waterfront, arts and crafts, health services, administration and much more. Our kitchen staff prides themselves on creating a well balanced and good tasting menu. A salad bar is provided at both lunch and dinner. Fresh fruit is offered each day. Campers eat family style as a cabin group.
