Camp is from 9am-5pm, Monday through Friday, with a horse show and family picnic on Saturday! Early drop-off and late pick-up are available.

-For our younger or beginning participants, camp offers a fun, active alternative to ordinary childcare, and includes early drop-off and late-pick-up when needed. Besides foundation horseback riding skills, we also teach horsemanship and theory, basic nutrition and barn care, and a sense of initiative and cooperation. Students will bond with "their" horses throughout the week as they learn to ride and care for them, and demonstrate their skills in the horse show on Saturday.

They will also participate in games, arts and crafts, group sports and other activities.

-For our older or more advanced riders, camp offers a chance to have two lessons a day, sort out specific issues with your horse, work toward individual riding or competition goals, and have some fun all day while doing it! *Potential for off-farm schooling or day-trip, depending on rider enrollment.*

Owning a horse is not necessary; board for the week is available if you do!

Contact us by phone or email to reserve your spot today!

In March 2013, ten youth ages 12-18 will be presented with a unique and exclusive horsemanship experience unlike any other. In its first year of operation, Legacy Mustang Preservation has clearly established itself as a national leader in the gentling and training of captured wild horses. LMP is now the home of the Virginia Pryor Nine, captured members of the Pryor Mountain, Montana herd of the famous Cloud, Stallion of the Rockies. LMP is the only training facility in the East selected to work with these special horses and received more Pryor horses for training than any facility in the nation.

Beginning March 2nd, ten youth will be given the opportunity to supplement their previous or current equine experience in an academy setting, studying the core spirit of the horse in a natural setting under nationally recognized equine trainer and communicator, Certified Horse Trainer, ACTHA Champion, and Extreme Mustang Makeover Finalist Jamie Dodson, along with ACTHA medal winner and Extreme Mustang Makeover Veteran Christina Flint. The calm and less intrusive, yet more productive, approach undertaken by this duo earned them considerable national acclaim, resulting in the gentling and adoption of 50 mustangs since inception.

Those accepted into the academy program will learn the essence of what horsemanship truly means. He or she will learn an understanding of and respect for the horse in its natural environment to include herd dynamics, behavior patterns resulting from social status within the herd, the importance of equine social order, and how to use natural patterns of behavior to facilitate calmer and more efficient training results.

If interested in this truly exclusive opportunity, please contact Christina Flint, Youth Program Director. Be the first to experience the only true example of natural horse behavior, the American Mustang.... See More
