Circle C Equestrian Center (2574 Sweetbriar Rd Sophia, NC 27350)

This four week, small-group program is designed especially for Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts who benefit from a supported, encouraging equestrian environment. Through a blend of horsemanship, riding instruction and teamwork, participants will build confidence, develop new skills and experience the joy of working with horses. Each session will include foundations of safe horse handling and care, riding instruction tailored to each rider's strengths and learning style, introduction to horse show skills, including patterns, presentation and ring etiquette and team-based activities that foster cooperation, confidence and connection. The program will conclude with a fun and supportive in-house horse show where riders can demonstrate what they've learned in a low-pressure setting. Families will also have the option to participate in a virtual adaptive riding horse show for those interested in an extended experience (additional fee applies). Participant Information: This program is intentionally designed for riders who have a diagnosed developmental, learning, sensory or physical difference and who benefit from a supported, adaptive approach to instruction. Our goal is to create a positive, team-oriented environment where every rider feels successful, included and celebrated. No previous horse experience is necessary. Please e-mail circlec@girlscoutsp2p.org with any questions about the program or eligibility.
