DAY 4 HORSE CAMP
Last day of Horse Camp at South Timber Creek Ranch. We say goodbye to all of our friends today!!!! Many renewed old friendships and made new friends. Today the campers received their t shirts that had their Cowboy Code on the front and our rescue horses on the back. In addition the kiddos finished up their own cowboy hats. They made a design in perle beads that were glued to the front of their hats and then decorated the rest. On day one, we informed them that just like in the old west..... we had a jail too. Well today some of the campers wanted to check it out!!!!! It was hard to say goodbye but hopefully they will take a little of the spirit of the West with them!!!!

DAY 2 HORSE CAMP
What a day!!!! It was HOT but everyone was a trooper with it AND then we had ice cream with toppings. It was yummy!!!! Kenzie showed the kiddos how to run barrels and then they got to run the barrels with our "stick horses " Our stick horses are noodles with stuff animals. They kids loved it. The campers have been making perle bead horses that they will be decorating their cowboy hats with.
Today we talked about our Cowboy Code and discussed how we respect ourselves others and animals. How we take care of animals and wijr before play.
Looking forward to tomorrow. Absolutely Love these Kiddos!!!!

IF HORSES WERE IN HIGH SCHOOL

Quarter horses: Definitely jocks. Strutting around flexing those muscles and showing off their butts. Responsible for all the trophies in the glass case.

Paints: Quarter horses with too much make-up.

Thoroughbreds: Preppies. They are athletes never jocks, monogrammed blankets, leather halters, Nike eventer shoes and the latest custom trailer and tack.

Appaloosas: Stoners. the like to drop acid so they can watch their spots move.

Arabians: RAH! RAH! SIS MOOM BAH! GGGOOOOOOOO TEAM!( Need I say more?)

Shetland ponies: Punks. Spikey hairdos, snotty attitudes and any colour of the rainbow.

Friesians: Bikers. Big, buff, always black, cigs hanging out the corner of their mouths and a dangerous glint in their eye.

Morgans: Nerdy teachers pet running around doing everything from yearbook to decorating the gym and rattling the bikers, stoners and jocks.

Drafts (All breeds): No real clique they're just the big guys who sit in the back of the room and fart a lot.

Hackney ponies: Band geeks. Marching along with their heads and knees held high, even going to the bathroom.

Warmbloods: The school staff and faculty. Looking down their noses with righteous indignation and disgust.

Minis: Primary school students.

Donkeys: Would be the teachers with the ability 'to think' and remember what happened the day before. Less likely to step on your feet when dancing.

Saddlebreds: The ones riddled the teen angst, the artsy, drama club type?

Percheron: Cafeteria ladies.

Mustangs: The free spirits and the "rebels without a cause".

The PTA would be aged broodmares only.

Football team: Well the Budweiser Clydesdale's of course!!!!
