Throughout the summer and over some school vacations, we host day and overnight horse camps here at the farm for the enthusiastic horse-lover! No experience is needed to join in on the fun!
Our youth camps are offered to children ages 4-13. Youth camps are split into two age groups, 4-8 and 9-13, so that we can tailor appropriate instruction and activities to our campers.
-Two group riding lessons on our safe school horses. Campers are paired to a school horse based on their age and riding ability. Groups are also determined by age and experience level and are no bigger than 3-4 riders.
-Two horse management lessons from the United States Pony Club curriculum. Topics could include learning pony parts, equine nutrition, stall cleaning, tack cleaning and identification, and how to bathe and groom.
-Daily chores to include tidying the barn, stall cleaning, and tack cleaning for the camper's assigned horse.
-An age-appropriate horse-themed craft to make and take home.
-Games and activities such as coloring, horse-themed bingo, and scavenger hunts.

We offer a working student program for select students in our lesson program over the age of 12. We hold high expectations for our working students that must be met. Working students at Infinity will learn the ins and outs of the day-to-day operations of a large boarding, lesson, training, and competition facility. Working students who reflect responsibility and good work ethic after working with us for an extended period of time may be offered promotions to positions including chore staff and camp teaching assistants, and eventually even instructors, trainers, or exercise riders.
Working students must:
-Be able to work independently
-Be able to work safely
-Be able to work responsibly
-Be able to work well with other working students, staff, boarders, and clients
-Be reliable
-Be punctual
-Take direction well
-Have good communication skills
-Have reliable transportation
-Understand that horses are large, domesticated animals that require around the clock care and so a flexible schedule (on both the student's end and parents' end) is a must.
