Horse Camps

Mikenda Farm offers youth horse camps during the summer, school holidays, in the spring and at Christmas time. The camp director has over 20 years of experience and has certification through the ARIA. Mikenda Farm has been providing lessons, boarding and youth camps by the same qualified horse professional for over 10 years. We are approved by the Girl Scouts of Citrus Council and have provided the horses for the summer camp program and their Horse Badge Program. Safety, fun and learning are the priorities. During camp hours, children are supervised by adults at all times. When looking at other camps, be sure to find out how many years they have been running their camps at the same location. Mikenda Farm's owner and camp director, Brenda Hagemeister, is the only ARIA Level II Certified Instructor in the Orlando area.

We will have some new activities for the kids: games on horseback, such as musical horses, ball tag, and an obstacle course, water games in the afternoons.
We will have an end-of-camp mini horse show with classes for the beginner, as well as our more regular lesson students.

There will be activities for all age groups so the little ones, as well as the older kids, will have plenty of interesting and challenging activities on and around horses.

There will be a 30-minute lunch break after the riding lessons (lunch is not included). Children between the ages of 5-14 who are beginner to intermediate riders will be best suited for the camp. Extended care is available before and after the camp for $5 per hour.
