"If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams,
and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined,
he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
- Henry David Thoreau

TO BE A STUDENT...

Camelot offers a sophisticated program requiring a great deal of courage and commitment from each student. Due to the structure of our curriculum, this program requires students to be mentally alert and capable of assuming responsibility. Students are expected to assist with the design of their program and are encouraged to develop equestrian skills as well as independent living skills.

If you are age seven or older, have a physical disability and the courage to slay your dragons, Camelot is for you! For more about becoming a student or to begin the application process, call Mary Hadsall at (480) 515-1542 or email her at info@camelot-th.org.
