At Dead Broke Farm, we pride ourselves in helping children learn to ride so they can enjoy the thrill of horseback riding. We teach them how to control the horse, how to maintain good balance and posture while riding, and how to groom and saddle up.

After riding, the children swim and play on the jungle gym in the afternoon. Camp is offered March thru December. Sessions are week-long. Multi-session and sibling discounts available. Ages 5 & up.

The Vineyard is more than just an outstanding sports camp and conference center. It is a ministry dedicated to discipleship. From the beginning, it has been our threefold goal to share God's love, demonstrate (through the lives of our staff) holy living, and explain the challenge of discipleship. Most of our campers come from Christian backgrounds (Catholic and Protestant), but any child of any conviction is welcomed.

Prior to arriving at the camp, each camper chooses a "major". Boys go to their majors in the afternoon, girls in the morning. While boys are at majors, girls attend electives, and vice versa. The electives (two difference choices each day) are chosen at breakfast. The majors offer in-depth instruction, two hours per day, for the entire week.
