About
Kennedy Farms Summer Camp is an equestrian day camp that includes beginner and intermediate/advanced camp sessions. Campers take part in horse safety, horse care, grooming, tacking, leading, mounting, and learning the gaits important to English riding. Instruction also covers proper position and balance, the correct use of posting diagonals, how to ride in the two-point position, and, for appropriate groups, jumping small cross rails or fences and small courses. Camp activities can also include lectures, instructional videos, games, arts and crafts, work without stirrups, discussion of course design, and advanced topics of horse care, barn management, training, boarding, sales, leasing, and lessons.
• Ages: 6–17 years old
Kennedy Farms Summer Camp takes place at Kennedy Farms Equestrian Center, a state-of-the-art facility. Students are divided into groups within each camp based on their experience and riding ability, and all instruction is tailored to each camper’s existing skills and knowledge. Intermediate and advanced campers are expected to know how to tack, untack, and groom their own horses and to care for their horses in an appropriate manner for the duration of the camp. Kennedy Farms also offers a Pony Pals program and adult clinics, and specializes in hunter/jumpers with clients ranging from beginners to riders competing in top junior and amateur competitions throughout the country.
Micaela Kennedy is the President of Kennedy Farms and has been riding and competing for more than 30 years. She has successfully trained riders and horses of all levels, and for over twenty years riders and horses from Kennedy Farms have competed successfully at all levels, from schooling shows to A rated Midwest and National shows, Grand Prix events, and National and International invitational shows. Her philosophy of teaching sportsmanship and horsemanship rather than simply to ride a horse has enabled her students to compete on the A circuit throughout the nation, and her training program stresses teamwork and safety as well as a competitive attitude.
