PONY UP
Ages 5 – 12
Sunset Stables
Pony Up is geared to give young children an
introduction to horseback riding and horsemanship.
Children will be introduced to proper horse etiquette,
grooming, how to lead a pony properly, putting
the saddle on and riding all in a safe and FUN
environment. The ponies we use are all kid friendly.
We work very hard to have only the very best ponies
in attitude and ability at Sunset Stables. Our little
horses love their work, are patient and tolerate a lot
from our young riders. Safety helmets are mandatory.
Children must wear long pants and closed toed shoes.
STARGAZING NIGHT AT THE
NEWARK RESERVOIR
All ages
Come out and enjoy the night sky over the Newark
Reservoir. See the wonders of the universe as you
have never seen them before through a telescope.
We will be gazing upon the craters of the moon, the
rings of Saturn, and whatever else the night may
bring. We will also keep our eyes open for satellites
and meteors. A brief introduction to the sky, and how
it appears to move will be followed by some hands-on
time with the telescopes. Bring flashlights as you will
need to park at the bottom of reservoir and walk to
the top.
