Camp memories last forever!We make sure they are unforgettable!
Sun Summer Camps offer so many exciting things for campers to do.Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program, at Sun Camp, horses ARE the program!We are 100%horse from stable(马厩)management, nature walks, and track rides to bedroom furnishings.
Horses help us achieve many of our aims.Girls can learn to develop responsibility, self-confidence and personal connections in their lives while having fun.Using horses as a wonderful tool for education, our camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.
Imagine each girl having her very own horse to spend time with and a best friend to love and take care of!Each camper is responsible for a horse for the week.Our riding program provides a lot of riding and lesson time.Campers will learn how to take care of the horse as well as how to ride.Days are filled with horse-related activities to strengthen the connection between each girl and horse, as the girls learn to work safely around the horses.
At Sun, we try to create a loving, caring family atmosphere for our campers.We have “The Bunkhouse”(4 girls), the” Wranglers Roost”(4 girls), and “The Hideout”(2 girls)in our comfortable 177-year-old farm house.All meals are home cooked, offering delicious and healthy food for the hungry rider.
Our excellent activities create personalized memories of your child’s vacation, Each child will receive a camp T-shirt and a photo album(usually 300-500 pictures)of their stay at camp.
Our camps are offered during June, July and August 2008, for small groups of girls aged 13-16 years, not only from Canada but also other parts of the world.

The programs at Sun mainly aim to help people ________.
The case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation.All high school graduates ought to go, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.
But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone.And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more and more obvious.College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students get in the way of each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the competition for admission to graduate school.Others find not interested in their studies, and drop out-often encouraged by college leaders.
Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves-they are spoiled and they are expecting too much.But that is to blame the students as a whole, and does not explain all campus unhappiness.Others blame the state of the World, and they are partly right.We’ve been told that young people have to go to college because our economy cannot take in an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds.But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer take in an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either.
Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school.We may have been looking at all those surveys upside down, it seems, and thinking of the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences.Perhaps college does not make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, or quick to learn things-maybe it is just the other way round, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are only the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place.And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not.This is heresy(异端邪说)to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better.But opposite evidence is beginning to mount up.
