Riding Girl Scout Badges
Each outing includes a badge for every Girl Scout!
At Double J we love helping Girl Scouts explore their interests and achieve their goals! We offer a number of fun and hands-on riding or non-riding badge workshop options to suit your troop's needs!

Bridging Ceremony
Have a bridging ceremony your Scout troop will never forget on or off a horse. Double J Riding Club has a real bridge that we use for our bridging ceremonies. The Scouts can either walk over the bridge on a horse or by themselves. Feel free to set up any decorations for photos. A party room can be added to the ceremony in our beautiful butterfly tent that overlooks the property for a celebration afterwards.
Price: $20 per Scout (minimum of 10 Scouts or $200)
Additional Party Room fee: $45 per 1/2 hour
