Join us at the Riding Center for Summer Camps! Equestrian Arena Assistant volunteers support programs including lessons and camps in the arena at the Carriage Hill Riding Center. These volunteers are the extra set of eyes, ears, and hands that ensure each participant has a safe and engaging experience.
This training is for current Equestrian Arena Assistant volunteers to get more familiar with unmounted activities for this summer's horse camps.
Impact
Volunteers just like YOU help ensure a safe learning experience by providing individual attention to each student, so that the instructor can focus on the goals of the lesson. You'll be helping each student connect to nature through our high-quality, equestrian programming!
