Allow our weekend wranglers—experienced riders—to introduce your Webelos II Scouts to horsemanship on a half-day or full-day horseback ride. Your Scouts will get basic instruction and demonstration before the group departs for a ride through forested areas surrounding the homestead. Throw in on-site camping, and you’ve got a memorable weekend activity.
