Much smaller than traditional summer camps where your child can sometimes be just a number. At GNRC horse camp each student is a part of the girl’s team where life on an operating farm becomes their opportunity to learn a wide variety of expertise.

For over 25 years Kim Simac has been training students from the beginner level to advanced Midwest competitions with great success. Openings to Simac’s summer sessions are limited and

Early registration is advised.

The three summer sessions will also give each student the opportunity to participate in a schooling show held on the premise and one travel show. Further information will be provided at time of registration and circuit information can be found at www.northwoodshunterjumpercircuit.com

Training and studies are focused primarily on the equine, stable management, grooming, horse nutrition and equipment.

Daily girls care for the horses that live on the farm and become great friends with each and every one of them.

Horses live for an average of about 25 years. Every horse has a story, a history, and girls learn just what each horse has experienced.

Almost all young girls LOVE HORSES, but learning firsthand the work and daily care each of these fine animals requires, teaches all attendees lifelong skills of responsibility, leadership, dedication and perseverance.

Girls who attend these sessions go home with an earned respect for their own personal achievements acquired at these summer sessions.

While living on the Kula Vista Ranch girls will also be introduced to:

• Raising Poultry and Beef Cows
• Organic Gardening—
  Canning and Processing
• Designing and Sewing Classes
  from start to finish
• Recipe Creating and Cooking from scratch

These classes will give girls a wide base of “Back to Basic” skills and techniques that are valuable and interesting.

Of course - great emphasis is put on proper nutrition and exercise. The hard work of caring for horses and farm chores will guarantee your child will not be sitting wasting a beautiful summer day, watching TV! Swimming, biking, organized games and a few opportunities to go on field trips to area attractions are always scheduled. From dawn to dark, girls will be busy making memories that will make your selection of our summer camp program a valuable investment in your child’s future.
