How will the scouts spend their time at TES?
Scouts gather at the patio tables outside of the TES office. We will double check that parents have signed a release form for each scout, before fitting them with riding boots.
​
After a safety orientation, the troop will be divided into two groups. One group will head to the barn for a hands-on lesson in horse care including feeding, grooming and equipment. The second group will be fitted for helmets, then walked to the arena for a riding lesson. The scouts switch activities after about fifty minutes.
​
Topics are custom tailored to meet the Girl Scout or Boy Scout badge requirements.
