Kensington Stables Pony Club is a program for young equine enthusiasts from 6 to 11 years old. The sessions are Monday through Friday from 10am to 4pm. In this program, the children learn hands-on about caring for the horses and the barn. They are given the opportunity to appreciate and share in the hard work that goes into caring for these gentle giants, and in doing so, develop close bonds with their favorite horses and ponies at Kensington. There is a lesson on horseback riding every day. In addition, children will enjoy horse themed arts & crafts and games.
We provide the safest possible environment in which there are only five children per counselor.
Lunch is not included. Please bring a boxed lunch and water bottle.
No electronic devices for entertainment are allowed.
The hours are from 10 AM to 4 PM Monday to Friday for the summer, 10 AM to 2 PM for the winter and spring sessions. Early drop off and late pickup are available at $15 per hour with advanced notice. There are no special activities during these times.
