WINDRIDER PRINCIPLES
1. ALL IN
By going all out, and being all in, for yourself and your friends adventures begin.
Every camper participates in group activities and games that engage the mind, body and spirit, while seamlessly teaching teamwork and leadership. Kids experience winning as doing their best and caring about everyone else.
2. ACT NOW
From the moment the sun begins to wake you, be ready for where the day will take you.
WindRiders know they must be ready "act now" every morning with their packs filled with everything they need for the day. Boy scouts made being prepared famous, and it makes good sense to us.
3. KICK IT UP
Kick it up a notch or two, go farther, do more than you thought you could do.
Horseback riding, theater, archery, camping and yoga are just a few of the diverse, fun and challenging activities that give kids a chance to learn and grow in a nurturing environment. Kids surprise themselves by stepping through their fears and doing more in a short time than they ever thought possible.
4. LET IT OUT
Acting up or acting out, creative expression's what it's all about.
Singing, dancing and acting, as well as script writing and are all on the schedule because at WindRiders, the show must go on. Giving kids a healthy outlet for creativity and self-expression fosters confidence and emotional well-being. On the final day of camp, parents are invited to a barbecue and a western stage show in which every kid shares the stage at the horse barn theater.
5. HEART SONG
Just start to listen to your heart; your heart is the one part that knows what to do.
When we look inside our hearts, good choices become clear. We believe that kids do this naturally--we just have to get out of the way.
6. FLY HIGH
With acceptance and love for the bold and the shy, you'll find how your spirit wants you to fly.
In an environment of acceptance and appreciation, WindRiders celebrates the magic, wonder and spirit of being a kid.
