The riding camp has been under the ownership and direction of Arno Mares since 1978. While the camp keeps him busy during the summer, the winter months find him playing polo in Florida and Argentina.
Arno is a member of the Certified Horsemanship Association, the United States Equestrian Federation, the Blue Sky Polo Club, the United States Polo Association, the Polo Training Foundation and the American Camping Association.
“I have the best job in the world. I get to ride, play polo, waterski, go on trips to New York and Southampton and watch kids have fun all day with horses. The biggest reward though is when a camper calls years later and tells me that they look back at the time they spent at camp as the best times of their lives.”
