TCTC's Summer Pony CARE Camps (three-day camp)

Diverse Pony CARE Camp for kids 7 - 12 years old. Campers jump into engaging hands-on activities at our nationally accredited equine sanctuary and "Forever Home" for 12 senior therapy horses of many breeds, sizes and colors here at Trillium Creek Training & Rehabilitation Coalition (TCTC). Fun for everyone!
These leadership camps use HANDS-ON models, coaches and horses to focus on:
* Equine Communication & Energy
* Feeding, Care and Braiding
* Safe Horse Handling on the Ground with a demonstration on Working at Liberty (using no equipment)
* Physiology & Anatomy
* How to Help Hold your Horse when the Vet Arrives
* Nature Treks exploring animal sounds, tracks, species & habitat in our Wildlife Corridor
* Ponds with snails, frogs, Eastern Gambusia (they eat mosquitoes!), water striders and lily pads (with a microscope to see bugs & things up close!)
* Gardens (with a train that smokes, chugs, clangs and whistles!)
* Greenhouse for Food & Fun activities with Make-Your-Own fresh herb aroma therapy sachets)
* Unique Arts and crafts using natural fibers and "found" objects
* Creative games with the ponies, of course!
* We even throw in a little work, mucking the pastures, to keep them clean and free of pesky flies!
* Activities will vary by camp
