Club Activities:
The "Ketcha Equestrians" currently has 12 members ranging in age from 9 to 12. Although this is a horse club, it is considered an un-mounted club and members need only to love horses and have a desire to learn more about all things horse.
When club activities require the use of a horse, members are able to use one of the several horses at camp. Some of the activities that we have worked on in the past or are planning in the future include:
* safety when working with horses * community service projects * participation in individual projects and record keeping |
