Do you enjoy working with horses and want to develop your leadership skills by working with other girls on weekends at Misty during the school year? If so, come spend a weekend at Misty learning the theories and hands-on skills needed to join the SPURS (Super People Using Riding Skills) special interest group at Misty Meadows Ranch! Participants who successfully complete training and take a written exam will earn a level one SPURS scarf. Then, they are qualified to participate in the weekend riding program during the school year. No previous riding experience is necessary. Participants will be in cabin-style accommodations, must stay the ENTIRE weekend (Fri 8pm - Sun 12pm), and must provide their own meals, bedding, and toiletries. For the best experience, we recommend that this isn't their first night away from home - this helps them feel more comfortable and confident.. Adult & girl trainees sleep and eat in separate locations, so pack food separately.
