SUMMER HORSE CAMP: All volunteers assist in horse activities. Our Horsin' Around camp is organized by trained riding instructors and is focused on horsemanship skills. We are en equine-assisted therapy barn, so our camps are inclusive.
Camp Volunteers must be at least 15 years of age but we certainly welcome adult volunteers as well. We prefer that you have some horse experience. Spots are limited, so sign up ASAP. Ideally, Camp Volunteers commit to at least one full week so there is consistency with the campers. However, we are flexible with schedules! Talk to us! Download our volunteer application from the website: www.thstl.org

We have four weeks of Camps as follows:
June 5th - June 9th
June 19th - June 23rd
July 10th - July 14th
July 24th - July 28th
