Dollar Days
Our Dollar Days horse program is geared towards those who aren't able to participate in lessons on a regular basis but would like to gain some hands-on horse experience. There are currently three sessions for kids 5-10 years and one session for kids 3-4 years old each week during the school year. For a minimum donation of $1 kids can enjoy 45-minutes of horse handling and farm experience (plus the kids help out with a 1/2 hour barn chore). Please check out the Dollar Days page for more important information regarding this program and then contact Cassie Wicks if you are interested in scheduling a session.
PLEASE NOTE: Our Winter Dollar Days sessions begin February 1 and end March 29. We have instituted a limited registration period prior to the start of each month and will not take any reservations except during this time frame. Please click here for more information.

Junior Wrangler and Ranch Hands Program
Wild Ones' Junior Wrangler Program provides the opportunity for younger youth (ages 12-14) to work with Christian mentors who model the attitude of serving God and others through our wonderful horses. Junior Wranglers and Ranch Hands get hands-on experience with horses, farm life, and service opportunities. Young people going through this program have the opportunity to help out at camps, the fair, and other Wild Ones events and of course have many chances to ride and have fun!
Please contact Jeanie Langley for more information.

Wrangler Program
Older youth (ages 15 and up) and adults who love the Lord and can demonstrate good horsemanship are encouraged to join our Wrangler Program. Wranglers are the hands-on teachers and counselors of our ministry. They help mentor the Junior Wranglers while improving and fine-tuning their own horse skills and relationship with the Lord. The Wranglers' hard work and passion for God and horses is a vital part of our summer camps and other events. Attaining the status of Wrangler is a privilege and carries with it the responsibility to be role models, not only for the Junior Wranglers, but for all who benefit from our ministry.
Please contact Jeanie Langley if you would like to be involved with this special mentorship program.

Our Horse or Yours
If your horse could benefit from exposure to new surroundings and situations give Our Horse or Yours a try. Wild Ones will board one horse per year at Kittyhawk Kigers and Mustangs where it will have the opportunity to interact with different people in a variety of activities and environments. Offering minimal training and maximum exposure, the Our Horse or Yours program is available for a donation to Wild Ones.
For more information, please contact Jeanie Langley.
