What: Junior Master Horseman is an 8 week curriculum where children learn the basics of "horsemanship". There are three levels. (They are technically based on age, but we are going to do them based on completion of the level before). Your child/teen will learn all there is to know about handling, caring for, and working with horses. (This is NOT horseback riding lessons, there will be times where the child/teen will have a chance to ride, but NOT every week).

Cost: We want to make this as affordable as possible so that everyone can enjoy the chance to learn about horses. The book itself is $15, and then we are going to charge $80 for the 8 weeks. It totals $95 for 8 weeks of the program (with horse interaction, and the $15 book charge). That $10 a week covers the charges for supplies, helps with horse upkeep, snack. (Please let us know if your child wants to be involved and you don't have the funds. So we can let you know if we have any sponsorships available) *discounts available for those who volunteer (teenagers) or that have more than one child involved. *If you would like to sponsor a less fortunate child please let us know and we would love to do that!

*Depending on the amount of interest (if we have too many interested) we may do two days a week and you'll need to choose which one works better.
