Helping Hooves

"Helping Hooves" Summer Camp Registration

Helping Hooves is perfect for young animal welfare advocates with an interest in equine humane education at New England’s premier horse shelter. Each day there will be hands-on, fun experiences and educational activities aimed at engaging young horse lovers. Through interactive exercises and featured guest presenters, Helping Hooves campers will have the opportunity to explore animal-related careers, learn about animal welfare issues, and spend time with our rescued horses. Please note that Helping Hooves is not a riding camp; there will be opportunities for campers to have direct interaction with the rescued horses, such as grooming, but riding will not be offered. Registration is limited to 12 campers per session.

Statement of Understanding

By checking the respective boxes, you agree to the following:*

I understand that registration is on a first come first served basis and that submission of this registration form does not guarantee my child a spot in the summer camp.
If my child is offered a spot in the camp, I agree to pay the summer camp fee and, if applicable, the additional cost of before and after care within one week of receiving notice to secure my child's spot. Failure to do so could result in the spot being offered to another prospective camper.
I acknowledge that my child’s image, photograph or video, may be taken and may be posted on social media or promotional platforms.
The MSSPA's River Road horse shelter is open to the public daily from 1pm to 6pm during June, July, and August. In addition, there will be volunteers, including women from the Southern Maine Women's Re-entry Center, at the farm during Helping Hooves humane education camp sessions. Although campers are carefully supervised by MSSPA staff, they may also have incidental contact with public visitors and/or volunteers.
I hereby release the Maine State Society for the Protection of Animals, its employees, agents, officers and volunteers from any liability claims, demands or suits for property damage or personal injury, including those, which sound in negligence, that may arise out of the course of participating in this program. I understand that these activities may involve physical exercise and a health risk and I will release all above mentioned parties from any claims. I also grant permission for emergency medical attention for my child in case I am not able to be contacted.
