| About Us |
SJ Riding Camp was founded in 1956 by Mary E. Haines as a riding camp for her children
and their friends. Since then, the camp has grown into a comprehensive riding facility and
general activities camp while maintaining the family oriented feel that provides each camper
with individual attention. Our camp provides girls from 8-16 years old with a safe place to
improve riding skills, take on the responsibility of horse care, improve their horsemanship
skills, and have fun while learning to be active, caring members of the camp community.

The Camp runs for nine weeks, in 1-, 2-, and 3-week
sessions. For girls who would like to devote more of their
summer to camp, we have the option of combining sessions
for a longer stay. While at SJ, campers ride twice a day
with time for other activities such as Arts & Crafts, Drama,
Sports, Archery and Swimming. We also devote time
everyday to caring for the horses and learning more about
horse management.
