Farm Policies

REQUIRED RIDING GEAR

  • Riders must use an approved USEF helmet that fits properly. No bike, ski, etc. helmets are allowed. Helmets are available to borrow at the farm if needed.
  • All students must wear paddock boots or shoes with a 1⁄4 - 1⁄2“ heel and a hard sole. Tennis shoes, rubber mud boots or high heels are not allowed.
  • Please wear warm clothes, gloves and boots. The indoor arena is protected from the elements but not heated, so warm clothes and layers are necessary. 


RIDING PREPARATIONS

  • Arrive on time, which is typically 30 minutes before your scheduled ride time.  
  • Lessons are cancelled if the temperature is above 90° or below 15°.
  • Instructors need the complete attention of their students. Parents are encouraged watch their students from the upstairs Observation Room to eliminate distraction.

  • All friends and family must stay in designated viewing areas; guests are not allowed in grooming areas, riding arenas, stalls or paddocks.
  • Do not allow children to run, yell or scream. We have many horses and riders that may be startled by these activities.
