Animal Friends School Programs
How far can a rabbit hop? Why does a pig roll in the mud? How can you tell if a horse is happy? What does it mean to be a predator or prey animal? These questions and many others will be answered in our Animal Friends hands-on programs. Children will learn a variety of information ranging from the diet and required care for these animals to behaviors and interesting facts. The TRAK animal family enjoys traveling to schools and being a part of this educational and fun experience. Please contact us for more information.

Little Buckaroos gives the little one in your life that “first time” riding experience! Our Little Buckaroo lessons are a 30 minute lesson for children ages 4-7, designed to teach horse safety on and off the horse, body positioning, and communication with the horse. Children of all abilities will learn new horsemanship skills including walking, turning, and even trotting and simple barrel patterns- all of this gearing them up for horsemanship riding lessons at age 8! (There is no ground horsemanship during these 30 minutes)
Is your Little Buckaroo ready to get started? Great! Here are a few things to remember before you get started:
All Buckaroo riders MUST have a TRAK Family Membership to participate in lessons.
Please make sure your child is 4 years old. If you do have any concerns or questions about their ability to ride, please call our office at 520.298.9808.
