LAS VEGAS - March 10, 2020 - PRLog -- There is nothing quite like the experience of attending camp and Las Vegas-based non-profit Horses4Heroes offers one of the best summer day camps in Las Vegas for children ages 5 to 13.  Registration is now open for 10 weeks of summer camp fun.  Now in its 12th year, this year's camp has an Olympics theme, "Let the Games Begin!"

Summer Adventure Camp 2020 starts on Tuesday, May 26 and will run through August 7. There will be no camp the week of June 29.  Camp is Monday-Friday, 8 am to 5 pm and weekly activities includes an outing to Texas Station, along with Horse 101, horseback rides, interactions with farm animals, activities with miniature horses, a Ninja-style obstacle course, ranch chores, games, archery and arts and crafts.  A "cooking" class will teach campers how to prepare snacks for horses and farm animals.

Horses4Heroes camps are open only to Horses4Heroes members.  Membership is free for Active Duty Service Members, First Responders, $25 for School Teachers and Nurses and $50 for Friends.  Membership information can be found on the web site, www.horses4heroes.org.  Camp is $150 for five days, plus a one-time, non-refundable $50 registration fee per family.  New this year is sibling and multi-session discounts.  Daily rates are available as well.   To join or for more information, visit http://www.horses4heroes.org.

Teen volunteers, ages 14 to 17, are invited to serve as volunteer student counselors.  For information on volunteering and earning community service hours, email camps@horses4heroes.org.

Sponsorships starting at $100 are available to under write the costs of camp, including transportation, Olympic medals, and supplies.

"Our camps are technology free and offer good old fashioned fun, all summer long," said Sydney Knott, president and founder of Hoses4Heroes.  "Campers get to use their imaginations, learn all about horses and farm animals, make new friends, create treasured memories, become more confident and leave camp with a powerful sense of accomplishment.  'I did it', is something we often hear!" said Ms. Knott.

Horses4Heroes operates the Horse4Heroes Family Equestrian Center in a rural northwest neighborhood, and offers affordable horseback riding lessons for all ages and riding levels, camps, birthday parties, field trips and free workshops for veterans with PTSD, victims of domestic abuse and violence, recovering addicts, at-risk youth and teens and others in the community who need a hand up, not a hand out.  Proceeds from all paid activities support the care and feeding of the horses and farm animals.
