Helmets, and boots or shoes with a 1/2" heel are required for safety. Participants should wear or bring long pants for their riding time. If it is going to be a hot day, participants can bring shorts and sneakers for the remainder of the day. Sandals are not a good idea around the barn. Sunscreen and bug repellent are also wise to send along. Please be aware that when around horses, kids tend to get dirty. Please choose your child’s outfits accordingly!
On Friday of each session, we hold an open house to which parents, siblings and friends are invited. The children get a chance to show the skills they have gained during the week.
They will bring home an invitation with their riding time and
other information on Thursday.
Note: For everyone's safety, if, once your session has begun, it is determined that this clinic is not appropriate for your child, we reserve the right to have the child not attend the remainder of the session. We will refund your money on a pro-rated basis.
