Kathy wants to provide us insight into this fun sport. You can ride as a team or individually and compete through the year if you desire.

This year’s clinic will be held Friday through Sunday, August 9-11, 2024.

We will once again have 3 3-hour sessions per class (that’s 9 hours of work per class). The Groundwork class will be from 9am – 12pm each of the 3 days, and the Riding class will be from 1:30pm – 4:30pm each of the 3 days.

Bring your own lunch, plenty of water, and SUNSCREEN! We will likely be working a bit outside, weather permitting.

Each class (Groundwork or Riding) is $450.00 for all three days, or $800.00 total to do both classes.

We require a deposit of $225.00 requested to hold your space PER CLASS, or a $400.00 deposit if you are signing up for both.

There will be a daily fee of $10.00 per horse for stalls OR outdoor pens, and you will be required to provide shavings for your stalls (indoor only) as well as daily cleaning and end-of-clinic stripping of your stall, but as usual I will feed for you 2x/day with your own hay and grain/supplements, if desired. Dry camping will be $20.00 for the weekend (suggested donation) – there is a bathroom on site but no shower, however there IS a 2 bedroom apartment available for rent if a few of you wanted to band together and rent that out (it has a queen and a bunk bed, but Keri said there’s not really a cap on bodies so air mattresses are welcome! https://www.airbnb.com/hosting/listings/editor/48871402/details/custom-link
