THE Teen Horse Camp

Welcome to THE Teen Horse Camp 2021

Now Located in Moorpark!

Our Mission: To enhance all teen campers with a sense of Harmony, Optimism, Responsibility, Spark, and Empathy through the love of horses; to instill a work ethic creating leaders of tomorrow.

Requirements: Teens  must be entering 7th-10th grade and have either been to THE Horse Camp before or have taken lessons at TEE. 

THE Teen Horse Camp is a small camp environment stressing cooperation, self-care, and leadership skills. This program may not be for everyone, therefore  campers may choose to be in the regular Horse Camp until age 14. THE Teen Horse Camp hours are from 8:30am-4:00pm.  

Teen Campers will participate as counselors In Training throughout the day. During this process Teen Campers will  receive counselor training as well as an opportunity to intern as an instructor, equine trainer, and ranch manager. They will participate in some of the special events that run for THE Horse Camp, as well as design their own in addition to their own morning lesson time. Teens will also have an option of doing a weekly private longe lesson during camp. This small group environment is a great way for teens to bond and gain much needed self-confidence to help guide them through these challenging years.

Teen Horse Camp Hours: NEW 8:30am-4:00pm Monday-Friday; Extended care available at no charge

Sorry, no partial weeks available
