Children's Counselor

We have two different children's programs at Drowsy Water Ranch and want counselors that have interest and enthusiasm for the group they work with. The Buckaroo Program is for kids ages 0-5 years and provides a day-camp type atmosphere that focuses on outdoor activities, basic horseback riding, small animal care, crafts, and games. The Buckaroo group is usually small, only about 3-5 kids each week. The Buckaroo Counselor is responsible for the kids when the parents and other family members are taking part in the horseback riding program or other ranch activities. Ideal candidate has experience and interest in working at day cares or preschool programs. The Rangerider Program is for kids ages 6-12 years. This age group is given a horse for the week and rides two times daily. The counselors for this group are responsible for programming when the kids are not riding. Activities include team building, hiking, archery, swimming, outdoor games, sports, songs, etc. Ideal candidate enjoys leading enthusiastically a group of 10-20 elementary and middle school aged kids. Counselors are also responsible for taking care of all petting zoo animals and ranch flowers, both activities that the kids enjoy to help with!
