Week Four-- Thursday Part Two!!!

Welcome back to the blog for part 2 of Thursday's post! We have SO many pictures for you this afternoon! We have made a ton of incredible tie-dye throughout the day-- now we just have to wait for it to dry! We continued with our regular riding lessons as well, and the campers got the opportunity to try English-style riding in horse fun! English riding uses a different saddle than our typical Western saddles, so it really feels quite different. For example, the front of the English saddle does not have a "horn," so the riders got to work on their balance and practice not holding on to the saddle! The campers also got to complete a blindfolded obstacle course in their skill surprise class. All in all, we had a really fun and exciting day! Thanks so much, campers, and we will see you tomorrow!

The hardest part about our blindfolded obstacle course was having to guide your teammate through it!
