SCOUT PROGRAM
Making Strides offers a program for scout groups who are interested in learning about horses and horsemanship! Our program runs approximately 2 hours (depending on the number of scouts) and meets the requirements of the Horseback Riding Badge
Learning Activities Includes:
• Tour of the Farm and “Meet the Horses”
• Everyday care of the horse
• Safety around horses
• Grooming demonstration and then a “hands on” introduction to grooming
• Introduction to basic riding, learning skills such as mounting, dismounting, walking, stopping and turning with the help of the riding instructor.
• Snack time
• Lets Ride! Sit in the saddle and take hold of the reins.... The instructor will lead you on a short ride in order to get the feel of how the horse moves.
