Residential Camp is geared towards girls wanting to learn how to train themselves and horses as athletes. They learn about running a barn, showing and nutrition for themselves and horses from a competitive point of view. They will have the oppertunity to compete during the camp and on lay over weekends if they choose to stay 2 weeks in a row. They can bring their own horse or use an Arundel Hill horse. Price includes horse, competition fees, schooling fees, room and board for rider and horse if they bring their own. There is a $50 discount per week for returning campers who choose to do a residential camp. All of the shows and schoolings offer trot poles to 3'6". Daily lessons will be split up into semi-private and group lessons based on each camper's needs. On days where they stay at the farm there will be 2 riding sessions, a morning flat class and an evening jumping class. Residential campers bringing their own horse may move in Sunday evening and be picked up Saturday morning or at Olde Hope if easier.
