At YMCA Camp Miller Ranch Camp, campers dive into the world of horseback riding set against a stunning backdrop of tall pine trees and a refreshing lake. Designed for youth entering grades 3 to 11, the camp offers a tiered curriculum to develop horse care and riding skills. Beginners are introduced to the fundamentals such as grooming, feeding, and basic riding, while advancing levels focus on riding techniques including trotting and cantering, safety protocols, and horse handling skills. Campers get to enjoy riding lessons, trail rides, and even swimming with the horses in the lake. Advanced riders participate in specialized activities including overnight horseback trips and skill challenges. The camp ensures safety with provided certified helmets and expects proper riding attire. With varied session dates through summer, campers also engage in traditional camp activities like cabin experiences and evening programs, ensuring a full summer adventure surrounded by horses and nature.
