ing a horse, Bight of the northern and northeastern camps
as si gn seven to eight girls per horse and a like a umber uses
five to six girls per horse* Thre# omspu from this taction
use nine to tea girls per horse and on© uses eleven to twelve,
Respondents from each of the Texas camps of the study reported
a different number of campers per horse, the lowest ranging
tram four to six girls and the highest from eleven to twelve
girls per horse.
Two of the Texas camps of the study work their horses
six hours per day* wte©reas( only one northern and northeastern
camp has this practice# Th® majority of the latter mrk
their horses fit# hours per day md six work them four hours*
The tendency of the Texas camps of the study to work the
horses for lo&ger periods of time is explained by the fact
that camp programs in the Southwestern areas stress horseback
riding mors than other sports and more time is provided fear
this diversion# Again# the average enrollment la the Texas
oaiaps tends to be higher than in the northern and northeast*
•m camps of the study ishlch may necessitate longer work
hours per horse to aocommodate the number of campers In the
equitation program.
Information regarding the ownership, "t|rp«, and ©are of
equipment used in the equitation programs of the northern
and northwestern camps and of the Texas camp® of the study
