Equestrian Center and Horse Gallery
Camp Marydale has an outstanding equestrian program that is enjoyed by Girl Scouts year round, with approximately 25 horses in our stables. It costs over $3,500 a year to care for just one of our horses, so any financial support we receive, earmarked for our equestrian program, helps to offset these expenses.
We are partnered with Louisiana State University's School of Veterinary Medicine who provide specialized care, such as vaccinations and teeth floating, to each horse. Doctoral students have also completed studies on the herd. All of our horses are adopted with many of them coming to us with health, weight, and age complications. Our staff work daily to make sure our horses are properly treated, fed and comfortable in our up-to-code barns.
