Ride Camp: Ride Camp opens at 1pm on Friday May 20th. Please when you arrive at site wait to be parked as space is limited. Horses will be required to stay in headquarters pens. These will be assigned according to number of horses and compatibility. We have been graciously allowed to camp at the headquarters where there is a family living. Please, LEAVE ALL DOGS AT HOME.
