Welcome to the Dragonfire Young Rider Camp Helmet Cam Edition! 🐴🎥

This video is a compilation of helmet cam footage captured by our riders during Dragonfire’s Young Rider Camp, giving you a firsthand look at trail rides, games, show jumps and cross country through their eyes. See all these aspiring eventers live the dream with their best friends and horses!
Throughout the week, riders immersed themselves in the sport of three-day eventing, learning everything from horse care and stable management to riding skills, sportsmanship, and competition preparation. Campers spent their days riding, grooming, caring for their horses, studying the rules of the sport, building friendships, and creating memories that will last a lifetime.Three-day eventing is often described as the equestrian triathlon, combining dressage, show jumping, and cross-country riding into one exciting sport.

This camp gives young riders the opportunity to develop their horsemanship, confidence, and teamwork while experiencing the thrill of eventing in a supportive and educational environment.
