Horseback Riding
Lessons
Riding a horse is not only fun, it is
also great exercise. Horseback riding improves muscle strength,
coordination and reflexes. It also increases confidence and deepens
one’s sense of responsibility and accomplishment. Our riding lessons
emphasize both safety and fun and are taught by certified
instructors. Private and group lessons are available May through
September in six-week sessions. Camp Red Cedar is a member of the
Certified Horsemanship Association and the Indiana Horse Council.
