Day 3 - IEA Recap
Ending the Zones weekend on a high — the rides were great, but it’s the people that make it. The cheering, the post-round laughs, the memories — that’s what sticks.
Until the next adventure!

Day 2- IEA Recap
Nothing beats that feeling when it all comes together — the early mornings, the hard work, the teamwork — and you walk away with a ribbon (or two 😉).
Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. This crew showed up, rode their hearts out, and earned every bit of it.

Day 1 - IEA recap
What. A. Weekend. 🔥
Still riding the high from Zones — so proud of this crew and grateful for every single person (and horse) who made it happen.
The early mornings, the late nights, the laughs, the rides — weekends like this are the best reminder why we do it.
Already feeling lucky we get to call this our team.
👉 Drop your favorite Zones memory in the comments!

Suspended in the moment! These riders and their horses make jumping look effortless—skill, trust, and a little bit of magic at work.
If you had to describe jumping in one word, what would it be? Drop it below! ⬇️ #JumpingGoals #EquestrianAirtime #StridesRidingAcademy
General Camp 11
Big camp vibes! Our older campers are stepping up, helping out, and making sure the younger riders find their stride—because at camp, we lift each other up (sometimes literally onto a horse! 😉)
Not into riding? No worries! Our Ranch Camp is perfect for horse lovers who’d rather brush, feed, and hang out with our four-legged friends.
Which camp would you pick—Riding Camp or Ranch Camp?
