Horsemanship Adventure Series

Clay Hill offers to each person a unique experience with horses. Every participant is assigned a horse or pony of his/her own to take care of and learn to ride. Clay Hill is in its 33rd season of successful horsemanship programs and is very proud of all the people who have enjoyed this in-depth experiences with horses through the years.  Clay Hill Stables is a minority owned business in P.G. County.

The Clay Hill horses and ponies are of impeccable quality and are well-trained at all levels plus being child oriented. We have had an excellent record in the past 30 years of operation due to constant supervision. You may meet our well-trained equine friends at many local horse shows and fundraising events or with the InterscholasticEquestrian Team whose members ride and train at Clay Hill Stables.

NO REFUNDS OF DEPOSITS FOR ANY REASON

I hereby give permission for my child,  _______________________________________, to participate in the Clay Hill Stables program described herein, subject to its rules and regulations. I agree that I shall not hold Clay Hill Stables, Ms. Emalyne Prettyman or any person(s) connected with the operation of this activity liable or responsible in case of an accident or injury. I understand that all necessary precautions are taken to ensure the safety of my child/myself, but I AM FULLY AWARE of the risks involved when working on and around horses. By signing this form, I assume these risks and give my permission for my child to ride, swim, participate in outdoor sports, go on trips and hikes and work in the barn area. I further realize that just being on the premises where horses, ponies and other animals are kept is in itself a risk. I understand that if my child should be an invited guest in the pool or pool area, this constitutes a privilege that is not part of the horsemanship curriculum and is also an extreme risk. I fully assume this risk by signing this form. I also realize that if I avail myself of child care before or after the Program, I am giving permission for my child to be on the premises without full staff supervision and children are subject to the rules and regulations of this activity; i.e., to remain in the HOUSE, TACK ROOM or OFFICE and not be outside in the pool area, the barn area or in the fields around the barn. I further realize that I will have to sign a Medical Form and Medical Treatment form on the 1st day of camp and understand that there are no refunds of camp deposits.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. If my child has never ridden, or is a beginner, is this camp appropriate?
Yes, most of our campers are new to riding. If necessary, we put the more experienced riders into separate groups during camp 2. What type of clothing/shoes does my child need?
For winter riding camps, dress in layers. Thermals are suggested. Hats ad gloves and layered socks are also suggested.
For summer camps, children should wear jeans or other long pants and bring along a pair of shorts to change into for non-riding activities.
All children are required to wear riding or other boots with a slight heel for safety. Sneakers tend to be too wide and can get caught in a stirrup.
3. Does my child need a riding hat?
Riding hats are required. The ranch has some hats available that your child may borrow, however, it is best that you bring along your own helmet for the best fit.
4. Should my child bring along a water bottle or juice?
For winter camps, probably not. A warm lunch and hot cocoa will be provided.
For summer camps, it's probably a good idea to bring along a water bottle and a lunch which are kept in a refrigerator if they are not packed in thermal containers. Afternoon snack is provided and water coolers are available on the property.
