SUMMER AT THE SHAMINEAU RANCH

Even though there is fresh snow on the ground here at camp, summer registrations are rollin' in.  Every year, our horse camps fill the fastest, partly because there are limited spots available and partly because they keep coming back for more.  During the Horse Camp week, each kid spends a lot of time with one of our 40 horses, learning to groom, saddle and ride.  Here you see a camper making some good time on her barrel race.  As I take photos of these kids, there might be a stinky pile here and there to avoid (or step in), but it's worth it to see their face light up when they accomplish something new on their horse.  The whole experience is another great way to encounter God's creation.
