Thank
you for your interest in having your child's special day here at our beautiful
new state of the art Equestrian Center.
Our Birthday Parties usually run about 2 hours, however, we can customize the time frame to meet your specific needs. We host Birthday Parties on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, as well as on school and national holidays. We have hosted birthdays for children from the ages of 2 thru 14.
The first hour of the party features a rotation of counselor
led riding lessons (not just pony rides!!!), crafts, and grooming
lessons.
• The children receive an actual horseback riding lesson from one of our trainers. Children have an opportunity to walk, and trot their ponies. The Birthday child has the option to ride for the entire period and will receive a free Painted Dreams t-shirt.
• All the children are provided with a horse related craft.
• All the children will receive a pony grooming lesson.
• The second hour allows party goers use of our brand new party room to enjoy their food, cake, open their gifts, etc. In the warmer months, you may choose to have this portion of the party in our pine grove.
• You may choose to bring in all your own party goods, food, cake, and favors... or we can do it all for you!!
• Guests should be dressed in long pants and boots if possible. Each parent is required to sign a release form prior to their child being mounted. These can be sent to the hosting family several weeks before the party for distribution. Safety helmets are provided by the facility.
• Host family may arrive as early as a 1/2 hour before the party to set up.
Fees:
• 2 hour party with party goods provided by parents: $29/guest with a 9
guest/$261 minimum. ($27/guest for 12 guests or more) and up.
• 2 hour party with party goods, pizza, cake, drinks, and favors provided

We are proud to continue the Brownie/Girl Scout and Cub Scout/Boy Scout Program at our facility. We have been honored to be part of the scouting experience since 2005. Our facility prides itself on safety, horsemanship, teaching responsibility, and building self esteem.
Our program lasts approximately 2 hours.
Scouts are split up into 3 groups: Hands on Practical, Presentation, and Riding. The groups then rotate so that all of the scouts have an opportunity to participate in each group.
Scouts have an opportunity to learn horsemanship skills—including safety, approaching, and leading, haltering, grooming, hoof care. They also learn about saddles, saddle pads, bridles, and bits—and how to tack up the ponies or horses correctly.
Your group will also have a choice of an equine related presentation or a horse craft (for those younger troops!!) Examples of our equine presentations include: nutrition, horse illnesses and basic veterinary care, breeds and colors, disciplines of riding, or “what you need to know to keep your horse at home”.
Each Scout will also have an opportunity to participate in one private, or a semiprivate or group, mounted lesson with one of our trainers (private verses semiprivate are based on the ages and experience levels of the scouts).
Our program successfully fulfills all the requirements for most badges. Boy Scout Merit Badges are discussed on an individual basis.
Fees:
Our discounted programs are open to all scout troops only. We offer two types of programs to suit all size troops.
1) Per student fee: $39 per scout with an 8 scout minimum OR
2) Per program fee: $400 for troops with up to 15 scouts, additional members $29 pp.
Please feel free to contact us with additional questions, or for a tour of our state of the art facilities.
