Riding a horse is one of the most exciting things you can do. But ask any good horseback rider her secret to success and she'll say that understanding a horse is as important as learning to ride one.
During this fabulous weekend, members of our Wrangler/Spur program
will share with you the basics of horseback riding, teach you how to
take care of a horse and about horse safety, prepare you for your
ride, practice your ride, and take you out on a trail ride, if weather
permits!
Girl Scout Juniors that complete all activities and
skills from the event will earn the Horseback Riding Badge!
Special note: When signing up multiple members of a troop, at least 1 but no more than 3 registered and background checked adult volunteers from the troop must also sign up. Also, every effort will be made for troops to lodge together, however, daytime rotation groups will be assigned for the best fit of horse and rider. This means that your troop will likely be in different rotation groups for the day.
Attending adults will be assigned to a group as well and are expected to stay with that group during the daytime activities.
