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. 
 
Hosted By: GSSJC 
 
Drop-off and Supervision: This is a drop-off event. Adults do not stay unless they are registered for the event. Girl Scout ratio will be met by SPURS facilitators. 
 
Adult Requirements: Any adults supervising girls outside of their family must have a current membership and background check. Adults must also be registered for the event to stay and participate. 
 
Tagalongs: No tagalongs are allowed at this event. 
 
Bring: Required forms which will be sent in an email from SPURS facilitators prior to the event. This email will include a complete packing list and instructions. 
 
Contact: Ashlie Watson, 713-292-0300, aswatson@sjgs.org 
 
By registering for this activity, you acknowledge that you understand the refund policy. 
You will receive an email titled, in part, "New SPURS Training" approximately 2.5 weeks before the event. All information, including start time/end time/location/etc, is included in this email. If you need to cancel the weekend, please contact customer service (CustomerService@sjgs.org / 713-292-0300) ASAP. This is usually a sold out event with several girls/adults on the waitlist who would like the opportunity to attend.
