Camp Focus:

Sports Camps: Equestrian and Horseback Riding

Description:

Allegheny Riding Camp is for Girls who Love Horses!

Allegheny Riding Camp is a girls' residential summer program located at the Grier School in Central Pennsylvania. We teach all levels of English (hunter/jumper) horseback riding. Campers have 2 riding lessons per day and an hour of equine studies each day. In a 3-week session, a camper is scheduled for 26 horseback riding lessons. All campers participate in a camp horse show at the end of each session.

Campers also have the opportunities to participate in a variety of other traditional camp activities such as dance, art, drama, swimming, camping, and sports. Our sessions are 3 weeks in duration, with a special mother-daughter weekend and 6-day rookie session for young campers.

We also offer a special Show Camper program for experienced riders aged 12 to 16. Qualified campers are assigned a specific show horse and travel to rated horse shows while they attend camp. New this year, Western saddle AQHA "pointed shows," second session.

Our mother-daughter session is a great way to introduce camp to young girls who might not be ready to attend camp on their own yet. (And for moms who aren't quite ready to part with their daughters!)

Allegheny Riding Camp is an offshoot of the Grier School, a private boarding school for girls, established in 1853. Facilities include dormitory housing, four riding paddocks, large in-door arena, stables for 70 horses, 25-yard outdoor swimming pool, air-conditioned dance studio, art studios, gymnasium, and 350 acres of beautiful wooded mountainside.

The goals of Allegheny Riding Camp are to build self-confidence, foster independence, care for horses, and value community.
