Hi everyone,
We are delighted to be able to launch our inclusive horse riding camps for this summer.
The camps will run on the following Thursdays and Fridays in July and August:
July 9th (Thurs)
July 10th (Fri)
July 16th (Thurs)
July 17th (Fri)
July 23rd (Thurs)
July 24th (Fri)
July 30th (Thurs)
July 31st (Fri)
August 13th (Thurs)
August 14th (Fri)
August 20th (Thurs)
August 21st (Fri)
They will take place at Equisteps at Deerefield Horse Riding, Castletimon, Co.Wicklow, A67 X218.
The camps are open to Wicklow Triple A Alliance members only. The camps are designed to cater for neurodivergent children and teens (from age 5 up) and their siblings. At camp, participants will go horse riding, groom the horses, muck out in the stables and play games.
Parents/guardians do not need to stay, but need to remain contactable by phone at all times.
In the interest of safety, Essie limits numbers to six participants each day, and ensures she has plenty of helpers to provide individualised support for all.
The cost is €60 per day, but as Wicklow Triple A Alliance is subsidising the camps, the fee payable by parents/guardians is €35 per participant per day.
Please note...
- Camp spaces are only available to Triple A Alliance members. If your membership has expired or you are not yet a member, please join or renew at https://app.joinit.com/o/wicklow-triple-a-alliance/
- Bookings will only be accepted via email to [email protected] with "Horse Riding" in the subject bar. PMs/comments/text messages will not be accepted as bookings. Bookings will be taken on a ‘first-come-first-served’ basis. Please give us your preferred 4 or 5 dates in order of preference and we will do our best to accommodate everyone.
- We will respond to your email with available dates/alternatives and will send on a waiver and information form for you to complete, along with details of how to pay. We will then hold your place. If payment/forms are not received by the cut-off date of June 26th, the places will be released for others to book in.
- Each child/teen can be booked in for a maximum of 2 days/mini lessons initially. If there is further availability, we will advise members of this closer to the time.
- All bookings will be finalised by Friday, June 26th (or sooner, if we are booked out!) and it will not be possible to book in after this date.
- Your place is only confirmed once full payment and forms have been returned.
We hope everyone will enjoy the camps! Thank you, as always, to Essie and her team for collaborating with Triple A Alliance on these camps.
Best wishes,
Michelle
On behalf of the Committee
