PVHC Horse Camping Trips
PVHC offers summer horse camping trips for intermediate and advanced riders only (for safety reasons). We have lots of fun, work hard, socialize with friends, and learn to care for your horse. We get wet, dirty, and laugh a lot. This trip is a growing, stepping stone and great learning experience for all in a positive way. We have group talks daily. Don’t miss out!
