OUR MISSION

Lucky Shoe Riding Club believes in giving students quality instruction, and offering the opportunity to help each student grow in their horsemanship capabilities. However, we are here for so much more than just horses. We are here to help your students confidence blossom as they grow into the respectful young adults they have been called to be. Working with horses teaches us how to persevere when things get difficult. When your horse just wont turn the way you want and you have to take a deep breath and learn to be patient. When you have tried everything you can think of and you still aren't achieving your goal, horses teach us to change our perspective. They teach us to love, to trust and how to care and protect them.  When your child is apart of Luck Shoe Riding Club, they are apart of a group that builds character, work ethic, confidence, responsibility, grit, patience, and friendships that will last a long time.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Campers will check in on Saturday Morning 8:30-9:30am. Each camper will be given a hat and a schedule.  They will be given a tour of the grounds, and settled into their designated sleeping quarters.  Campers will be given an individualized schedule, based on chosen events, of which events they are assigned to when.  We kick off camp with staff, instructor, and team leader introductions.  

At this time each camper will be assigned to their team leader (campers are placed in groups of 5 with other campers their age.)  Each team leader has picked a team name and prop for each of their group members for competition purposes.  Every night teams will compete in group games of all kinds, with the goal of coming out on top at the end of the three days.  Team leaders stay on site with the kids, so they are never alone. The girls sleep in the barn on the floor, so bring an air mattress so your student is not sleeping on the hard concrete. The boys sleep in a large tent the their team leader.  They help them get around camp and make sure they get to where they are supposed to be on time. 

They will have three instructional sections each day. Instruction always starts with the basics and lots of ground work to make sure each student has built a foundation to build on.  

  

Free time and late night activities are offered at the end of each day.  Staff keep eyes on campers at all times to make sure they stay in designated areas.   Free time and late night activities include things like; football, volleyball, painting, tournaments, movies, bonfires, dances, and more.  

Showers are available on site and shower time is scheduled. Campers are also welcome to shower during their free time.  

We have a concession stand available on site throughout camp with snacks and drinks if anyone desires a late night snack or something besides water throughout the day.  

​

Campers can bring their phone, but during instruction they are required to keep it in their belongings. Campers can bring snacks to have throughout the camp. 

 

Camp will wrap up on Monday.  At 10am we will do a group riding activity and invite the parents to come see what their students have learned. Students will be ready for pick up at 12pm. 

​

PARENTS

Parents we know that your kids are your most valuable possession and we make it our priority to make sure they are safe and taken care of during their time with us.  All of our staff have current background checks. 

We understand that it's nice to stop in and check on your kids.  We love for you to see what they are learning and doing, however, we ask that you check in at our office and do not roam around camp without a visitor's pass.  We like to know who is on the camp grounds and when, in order to maintain safety for our campers.
