Special Needs Horseback Riding Fall 2025

YMCA Camp Manitou-Lin

This fall, we are offering a six-week session of horseback riding to our local school district's special education department. We are looking for volunteers that can assist with this very rewarding program. Volunteers are needed for the six-week session on either Mondays and/or Wednesdays from 8:45am-noon (tentative on class scheduling possibly only until 11:15am). No prior equestrian experience is needed and training will be provided. Tasks can include grooming, tacking, leading our horses, and/or side-walking with our students.

It is recommended to dress for the weather and volunteers are required to wear fully enclosed shoes such as boots or tennis shoes.

Keri will be in contact by 8am if lessons will be cancelled due to inclement weather for the day.
