BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Horsemanship Camp at Wood's Edge is an inclusive day camp for riders of all abilities ages 6 - 14. Each day includes horsemanship lessons, riding, barn time, crafts and more. Low camper to staff ratio ensures safety and fun for all campers as they are taught by qualified instructors. Indoor and outdoor arenas plus groomed trails and a climate controlled lounge for the comfort of everyone. We believe a hands-on horsemanship program is more than just riding, but there will be lots of that too! The final day will be Show Day where campers will be able to participate in a horse show to demonstrate their skills for family and friends! Contact us now so your child doesn't miss this exciting equestrian opportunity!

CAMP LOCATION: We are located on 40 acres in south Johnson County, Kansas between I-35 and I-69. with easy access from all Kansas City metro areas.
CAMP FACILITIES: Wood's Edge Equestrian Center boasts a state-of-the-art 22 stall barn with an indoor arena, a large outdoor arena and beautiful wooded trails. The facility is fully handicap accessible.
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: We believe that with the help of horses, doors can be opened that lead to success both in the barn and in life. Miracles happen every day as balance increases, muscles strengthen, hearts soften, friendships develop and self-confidence shines.
We also believe in a hands-on approach to learning and encourage our campers to be involved in all aspects of horsemanship. In addition to riding, we know that grooming, saddling, feeding the horses and barn chores all offer unique opportunities for learning and growth as equestrians, but there are also many physical and mental benefits to these activities as well. We encourage independence in a safe, inclusive environment where individual needs and goals are our primary consideration.
YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMS: Wood's Edge Equestrian Center offers year-round hunter/jumper, dressage and adaptive riding lessons for riders of all abilities age 4 and older.
