WHAT MAKES OUR CAMP SPECIAL?

It is our 20th anniversary of summer camps in Katy, Texas. We really teach the campers to ride. Every camper’s favorite activity seems to be horseback riding! Students receive daily instruction in horseback riding. Side-walkers are available for each beginning student until they are able to control their horses. We own over twenty lesson horses and they were selected for their gentle personalities. Safety is our ultimate priority. Our programs teach horsemanship and strive to build children’s self confidence.

On the last day of camp the riders participate in a horse show with ribbons and all! Everyone leaves with a prize!

WHAT DO STUDENTS DO?
Students will rotate through different learning centers which may include, but are not limited to: horse feeding, tacking (putting equipment on the horse), washing & grooming, and identifying the parts of a horse, saddle, and bridle in addition to a daily riding lesson and artwork that is learning and horse-oriented.

WHAT IS THE COST?
The cost is $399.00 which is paid as a non-refundable deposit of $199 and the balance of $200 the first morning of camp.  Checks should be made out to Circle Lake Ranch, Inc.  Your confirmation will not be sent until your deposit has been made.  If you need to cancel camp, we will transfer your deposit to another camp date (if one is available) or exchange it for riding lessons within 60 days of the scheduled camp in case of emergency or illness, however cash refunds are not given.

WHAT PAPERWORK DO I NEED?
We require the following:
– 2018 Registration form
– Medical Form (requires notarization)
– Doctor’s Release for Physical Activity dated within the past year.
– Liability Waiver Signed by both parents or legal guardian(s).  These forms are required the first day of camp.

WHAT ARE THE AGES?
The beginning horse day camp is for ages 6-12. We cannot take students under the age of six due to the Texas Equine Liability Act.

LENGTH OF CAMPS AND TIMES
Camp sessions are held from 8 am -12noon, Monday through Friday. There is a $10 penalty for late pick-ups.

WHAT TO WEAR AND BRING
Riders must wear jeans and appropriate footwear –paddock, riding, or cowboy boots – NO TENNIS SHOES. Helmets are required for horseback riding, riders are encouraged to bring their own helmets (We have helmets available if you don’t own one). The riders also need to eat breakfast, and apply sunscreen before coming each day although we usually ride under shade cover.

CAN I STAY AND WATCH MY CHILD?
Security is important to us. We cannot have parents whom we do not know staying with the children. We have a horse show the last day so your child can demonstrate what they have learned during this time. Our staff is kind, caring and attentive and since our inception we have had no injuries or harm to campers in any way.
