General Info/Reminders

  • Please do not park on grass if it is wet. Many students have gotten stuck and I've spent their lesson getting them out.  Yes, I still get paid for that. :)
  • If you pull in the driveway, please BACK OUT.  The driveway setup leaves no room for turning around and going off the edge simply crumbles the edge of my driveway.
  • Please check lost and found. It is getting big!
  • If you are late, your lesson ends on its scheduled time. If we are running late your lesson will still be one hour.
  • If you are a pay-as-you-go client, please leave me a check for a one lesson deposit.  This will applied to your last lesson, or used in the case of a no-show-It HOLDS your weekly spot for you.
  • Please use the restroom before arriving.  This is my private residence. Although I used to allow people to use the restroom, it is getting a bit out of hand.
  • Some lessons have more riding time than others.  This varies in reasons, some of which include:  horse needs more time on ground do to spooky behavior, a tack malfunction, an extra dirty horse, learning additional unmounted techniques, just to name a few.  This is all part of learning HORSEMANSHIP.

About Us
 Did you know?  Loretta started riding ponies at age 5.  Her neighbor had one pony.  He also took care of the Budweiser Clydesdales and would occasionally take Loretta with him.  Do you think that is way she likes big horses like Scottie?
