YORKTOWN STABLES CAMP REGISTRATION 2025
We offer a variety of weekly camps throughout the summer and over long school breaks.
Daily riding schedules are organized by age, experience level and discipline.
Riders will ride at least once per day (sometimes twice) and will care for and groom several school horses for the week. Advanced riders will be offered instruction in hunter, dressage, and/ or an intro to cross country sessions.
Riders are asked to bring a bag lunch, paddock/tall boots, riding pant/breeches and a change of clothes. Helmets are provided or you can bring your own as long as it is an approved ASTM/SEI certified.

Hauling
We charge $3 per mile, and the cost is calculated one way even though we have to return to our farm. We charge to get to the pickup site and from there to the dropoff location. The minimum cost is $300. Tolls are the responsibility of the owner, so we would need to be reimbursed for the toll fees upon delivery of the horse. However, we can avoid tolls provided you understand the route is often a greater distance. A $100 deposit is required, and the balance is due in cash upon delivery. To arrange transportation, call or text (757) 291-3207.
LEASING STARTING AT $500/MONTH
Riders interested in leasing a horse must first demonstrate good barn manners and responsibility in their handling of horses as well as good, safe riding skills. Riders taking at least 12 lessons a month (3x per week) and meeting the basic requirements listed above are eligible to lease a horse. Half leasing is $500 per month to be paid on the 1st of the month.
-
What are the benefits of leasing or half leasing a horse, as opposed to owning a horse outright? A rider is able to enjoy a horse without all of the responsibilities of owning a horse.
-
When a rider advances beyond the level, age, or size of the horse, they do not have a horse they have to sell in order to upgrade.
-
The opportunity to ride when you want (limited only by barn hours and courtesy during large group lesson times)
-
Priority scheduling for lessons and makeup lessons.
-
When you must move on from a horse you grow to love, you don't have to wonder where it goes when you are riding another horse. You can always come back and visit!
-
If you think you want a horse but are not quite sure about committing to buying one, leasing or half-leasing a horse is an excellent option to gain preparatory experience for the responsibility of owning a horse!
-
If your high school student just needs a horse to ride on an equestrian team for 12 weeks... THIS is perfect!
-
Full Lease starting at $700 and you get to enjoy all the benefits of having your own horse with out vet or farrier bills. When you fully lease one of our horses no one else will ride your horse.
-
YS reserves the right to terminate half or full leases for any reason.
