GMHA awards funds to assist young riders who plan to attend our Junior Horsemanship Clinic, now in its 54th year. The Junior Horsemanship Clinic, which is the premier eventing camp in New England, caters to riders aged 9-17. The camp provides a horsemanship and eventing based curriculum, but skills taught are which are applicable to many equestrian disciplines.

Scholarships will be awarded on a rolling basis, allowing families to make their summer plans and camp arrangements in a timely fashion. Scholarships will be awarded based both on financial need and quality and completeness of grant applications.
