Safety Requirements

Safety is extremely important to us, therefore all students must abide by the following guidelines at all times.

Long pants must be worn.

Hard soled riding shoes or boots with heels must be worn -- No Sneakers!

ATSM/SEI approved helmets MUST be worn when mounted on a horse. Helmets may be rented for $2.00 per lesson.

Barn and horse safety rules (posted, written, or verbal instruction) must be followed at all times.


Cancellations

If you need to cancel or change your lesson, please give at least 8 hours notice so we can adjust staffing. Repeated (the second and subsequent) failure to give at least 8 hours notice WILL RESULT in the student being charged for the missed lesson. The student will not be allowed to take another lesson until the missed lesson fee is paid. A "no show" will result in the student's normally scheduled lesson time being forfeited and the student will not be allowed to take another lesson until the missed lesson fee is paid.
