Educational camps and classes are taught by employees with knowledge of disabilities and experience adapting activities to encourage participation.

Our camps and classes give children a chance to participate in educational and recreational activities in an outdoor setting. Previous camps and classes have included The Science of the Horse, Nature Camp, Pencils and Ponies, Brain Builders, Stable Reactions, Art, Social Skills, and Job Skills.

Sessions are "ground based," meaning that participants do not ride. Our animals provide a chance for children to learn life skills through a variety of interactions. Examples of interactions include observations of herd dynamics, leading activities, grooming, or inclusion of animals in the learning activities.

Field trips for all ages can be offered based on the size and availability of the group and the barn's schedule. To inquire about bringing a group of children for a field trip, email Connor Samples at connor@theredbarn.org.

How do I decide if this is right for my child?

Does your child like to be outdoors, learn, and have fun? If yes, then camps and classes are a great way to participate.
