Eventing Camp follows Olney's recognized event so courses will be set. This camp is for those kids interested in learning more about the sport of eventing or advancing their eventing skills. The camp will focus on skills needed for each phase of eventing (dressage, cross country, and show jumping), with an emphasis on competitive skills, rules, etiquette, and horsemanship , as well as what to expect at your first event. No eventing experience required, however, riders should be comfortable jumping small jumps. This is not for riders who have never jumped.

For 2021 events (dates TBA), we will be implementing COVID-19 procedures in accordance with state and local guidelines. We will update these as more information becomes available. Once these procedures are in place, all persons entering the property will be required to comply. If you do not comply, you will be asked to leave the property and forfeit any entry fees. The success of these procedures impacts not only our events but horse sports across the State of Maryland.
