    Overview

    Road's End Farm is a small summer camp that appeals to girls who love being around horses, caring for them, and riding for enjoyment rather than competition. Camp life is lightly structured and decidedly noncompetitive to ensure a close-knit family atmosphere.

    Every morning, except on Sundays, the campers spend an hour and a half on the horses learning about English pleasure riding or actually experiencing it in small groups on the bridlepaths. 

    Afternoons are spent on the waterfront, swimming and canoeing are popular activities. The waterfront program is oriented toward helping campers become safe swimmers and confident in the water. 

    Farm chores are a rewarding part of our program and the staff and the campers carry out many of the day-to-day tasks of operating the farm together. Evening activities are mostly a matter of campers’ choice, and may include any of a number of favorite pastimes from a boisterous capture-the-flag game to a peaceful walk with friends to watch the sun set over Vermont’s Green Mountains.
