Just like people, horses have unique personalities. During this weekend, we will get familiar with the many "horsenalities" we have here at camp. As we get to know the horses of Camp Misty Mountain, we will learn about how horses communicate and apply that to learning to train a horse. Girl Scouts will practice their horse communication skills through games they learn to play with horses both on the ground and in the saddle.
