Frisco Horse Park is the BEST place your child/teen can be during spring break & summer break for learning more about horses, from the basic rider to the more advanced...with various ongoing themes from - "Basics of Western Riding", "Required Equine Equipment", "Daily Care" and "ABC's of Training". Also included are barn and ranch skills, crafts, water activities, guest speakers, other farm animal fun and a great staff. The majority of our staff is CPR certified, all are experienced, background checked and have a passion for kids and horses!
