We have one day left of full lessons. The campers have shown so much improvement! Every camper is at least trotting now and many are jumping small cross rails for the first time! Mackenzie, Taylor W., and Molly will finish up their two weeks with cross rails on Friday after working some quirks out today over trotting poles. Evie, who got on a horse for the first time at the beginning of the session, is now learning to two point at the trot. Along with her are Curtis, Kyle, Andrea, Teal, Agnes, Grace, Michael, Alex B., and Ellen D., all trotting in their lessons. Caitlin H., did her first cross rails today on Caro while Gabby and Jayne continued perfecting their jumping position in the other half of the arena. Out in the jump arena, Amy has been having fun with Donnie, Chloe, Marissa, and Emma working on cantering and jumping as well as some synchronized jumping...sort of...when the horses cooperate and stay together. Laura has been working with Daisy to slow down and not charge fences. They look spectacular together! The Barn Rats are extremely useful, helping get horses out, groomed, tacked up, helping in lessons, untacking and sponging horses off. We couldn't run the barn without them! What are we going to do on Saturday?
