Horsemanship at CANYON CAMP

Posted on Mar 5 2024 - 11:42am

New in 2024 at Canyon Camp - Horsemanship

But only 12 scouts each week when camp may be 150 to 200 plus scouts each week.

Have you ever wanted to ride the plains like the
cowboys and cowgirls of old? We may not be able
to bring back the Wild West, but we can offer
Horsemanship Merit Badge!
We will offer it this summer by the courtesy of
Shenandoah Riding Center in Galena, IL, from
1 0:00-11:50 AM (2 Hours Block) on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday meeting at the Archery
Range. With an exception to Week 3 (Tuesday),
the field trip to Shenandoah Riding Center will
take place on Friday and transportation will be
provided.
Sign-Up Considerations
Taking Horsemanship MB will have a cost of $75
that will be paid during your week at Canyon
Camp. We are very excited for this opportunity,
but we anticipate a high demand for this new MB
opportunity this summer. We have a limit of 12
participants for Horsemanship MB each week, so
if we receive more than 12 Scouts who sign-up for
this opportunity, then we will have to prioritize
older Scouts and then use first come, first serve
for any tiebreakers. We will confirm this list on
Monday during you week at camp and will keep in
close communication if we have to have Scouts
take a different program opportunity
