If you love coming to Phantom Ranch for a Triple W or Horsemanship Summer Camp session, you’ll love our Triple W weekend retreat! If you haven’t attended one of our Horsemanship Camps, here’s your chance to have fun with our horses and develop your riding skills over a weekend.
The weekend is for both middle school and high school girls. Campers will reunite with camp friends, make new ones, and level up their horse knowledge and skills. Alongside horse games and trail rides, campers will be encouraged to deepen their commitment and loyalty to the ways of Jesus through Chapel sessions and conversations with our Cabin Leaders and Wranglers.
Whether you are a seasoned Horsemanship Camp attender or if you have never ridden or been around a horse, our Triple W weekend retreat is for you!
What is Triple W?
Triple W is the name of our horsemanship summer camp programs. We have been hosting Triple W camps every year since 1964. And now we are adding to our Triple W program with weekend retreats! We will have the same goal of teaching God’s word and safe horsemanship from the ground up, literally – we teach you to groom and saddle, as well as help you work through the fundamentals of horsemanship from the saddle. No matter how long you have been riding or what level you are, you can grow your skill to understand horses and yourself better.
Every Triple W session is infused with God’s love and knowledge-building. We love to teach about how to grow closer with God and be a better Jesus follower. With great teachers at chapel sessions and talking about how God made horses during horsemanship lessons, we just can’t keep our excitement about God and his creation out of anything!
