Rodes Farm
Nelson County, Virginia
For years and years youngsters have grown up learning about horses at Rodes Farm in Nellysford. This summer marks one decade that the Summer Riding Camp has been held for youngsters ages 8 to 10. “Our camp is designed for the beginner to intermediate rider where campers get to explore the different disciplines of English style riding,” says Lindsey Osborne, Rodes Farms Stables’ manager.
Scholarships were made available for the 2010 Riding Camp by a generous offer from Merrill and Jaffray Woodriff. The scholarships provide full or partial funding based upon financial need. “The camp also includes natural horsemanship, dressage, games and the basics of jumping. In addition to riding the days consists of horse education, basic care, and swimming in the afternoon,” Lindsey continues.
This year’s camps run through August 13th. For more information about enrollment (advanced registration is required) call 434.325.8260 or email Lindsey: losbornerfs@wintergreenresort.com
