Eklund Law, PC: Looking for summer horse camps?

It's February and the season of panic for parents who still haven't found the perfect summer camp for their kids. After fielding inquiries about horse camps and doing a bit of research, I decided to make some calls and send emails to put together a list.

If you just want to scour North America for camps for kids, www.camppage.com is a helpful finder. Here's a link to their horse-camp finder:

The Minnesota Horseman's Directory, on the MN Horse Council's web site, has 50 listings for horse camps: http://www.minnesotahorsemensdirectory.com/category.php?category=camps

The YMCA offers a number of different camps with horseback riding programs in Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Learn more about them at http://www.ymcatwincities.org/camps/.

Below is a list of stables offering summer horse-camp programs who have contacted me or been brought to my attention. Programs are day-camps unless noted. I'll keep adding as I learn of more. Note - this is not an endorsement of any program(s), just a list of what's available.
