The
BEST Childrens
Summer Camp!
Welcome to a real horse farm! A farm that
not only rescues and rehabilitates horses and ponies in need, but also
educates
the public in a mission to infuse compassion for all animals into every
individual encountered. Amaryllis is a farm where purity,
truth and
gentleness prevail.
The
award
winning head counselor for pony tails camp is none other than the
A.S.P.C.A
Child Hero of the Year!
The combined efforts and expertise of Rachel and her mom are a blessing to all
who enroll in camp. A truly wonderful summer is assured! Secure your spot
today! Classes are LIMITED!

Friends!
Augustus walks close
to the working ponies so the children feel safe. He seems to think he
could catch a child if they lose their balance. We have never seen
anything like this. His job was self appointed and he is very serious about
carrying it out.
Augustus McCrae is the "sidecar mule" making sure no one falls off!

per counselor, age appropriate. One head instructor per 5 campers. Several
counselor assistants are also working. Christine supervises the entire camp

-
Horses and ponies assist us, as do the resident
barnyard animals. We feel it necessary to request parents refrain from
demanding their child ride a horse versus a pony. This is a problem every
year. Children naturally wish to ride the "BIG" one. We match horse
or
pony to child, not just by size but by attitude,
nature and experience. Thank you!

Please become familiar with the basic riding
rules as listed under the "lessons" link, and please purchase the appropriate
riding gear. An astm/sei certified helmet, jodphur or paddock boots and
half chaps. Visit Brennan's Bit and Bridle in the

Riding time will vary according to the day's
outline as well as the weather. Typically a half hour daily for the half

Every Friday is a special "Games and Questions"
day when every camper will receive multiple chances to win ribbons and prizes to
show their success for the week.
