BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Three Seven's Ranch offers quality leveled horsemanship programs for youth, ages 12-18. The week is full of fun and learning and goes from Sunday evening through Saturday morning. Passing each level requires the rider to pass both a written test and a riding test. The written test might include topics such as horse anatomy, whereas the riding test might include a demonstration of successful flying lead changes, depending on the level of the rider. Interspersed with the learning sessions are games and activities suited to the abilities of the riders.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: The Three Seven’s Ranch is a working ranch and Christian camp designed to help young people develop a good work ethic and strong character, to provide quality horsemanship instruction for both kids and adults, and to offer programs to strengthen the family. The theme "using the outside of a horse to develop the inside of a man" describes much of the ranch program.
Horsemanship Camp Director-Rick Benson: Rick’s varied experiences over the past fifty years make him well-qualified to serve as horsemanship director. For four years, he taught advanced horsemanship, served as the stallion manager, and acted as assistant to the veterinarian teacher at a vocational college. In addition, he taught adult horsemanship at another college for a year and for two years instructed at one-day clinics for the sheriff's department search and rescue workers. For many years, he has been breaking and training horses for individual trainers, at roundpen demonstrations, and for camp programs. At a Christian camp in California and then again at the 777 Ranch in Utah, he has developed a leveled horsemanship program, ranging from beginning to advanced students. Throughout the years, Rick’s primary desire has been the motto of the 777 Ranch—”using the outside of a horse to develop the inside of a man.”
A certificate is given after a rider has passed each level. One-on-one, as well as group, instruction is provided by qualified instructors. Campers are paired with a Three Seven's Ranch horse that is appropriate for their riding skill level. At the completion of the program, graduates are awarded with a silver buckle. The campers will also take part in other activities such as marksmanship, swimming, kayaking, chapel times, crafts, and games. Some spaces for the summer of 2019 are still available.
