  "Summer Camp 2010 is off to a fantastic start. We've just completed our June sessions and are gearing up for July. Counselor graduates from our 2009 Stable Management program have demonstrated a keen understanding of their training, helping camp to run smoothly and with lots of laughs. I am so proud of all of them! We are so pleased with all the positive feedback: ""this is the best camp ever"", ""can we do sleepaway camp here?"", ""you have exceptional school horses"" and on and on. We are always striving to meet our students needs and are always taking their ideas and input and putting them into action. The success of our camp means we are doing our job and will continue to provide this quality service to young equestrians on the peninsula" Rhonda Weiss-Riding School Coordinator
