INCLEMENT WEATHER
In the case of inclement weather, equestrian program staff will contact you by phone no later than 1 hour before your party is scheduled to start. Outdoor parties are only canceled/rescheduled due to thunderstorms, temperatures below 40, and other extreme weather conditions. If you are unsure whether to come or not, please do, bringing appropriate clothing/items to protect you in the weather (such as gloves, poncho, etc.). If the weather forecast is uncertain, staff may contact you to discuss whether you’d like to reschedule or not.
Indoor parties may be rescheduled for severe or dangerous weather conditions like prolonged strong thunderstorms or snow/ice.
WAIVER
Required for ALL riders
Please inform our staff of any special physical considerations
CANCELLATIONS
If for some reason you need to reschedule or cancel your party, we would be happy to do so with at least 24 hrs. notice. Without this notice, you will still be charged full price for your party. If you need to alter the number of riders you are bringing, please do this at least 24 hours in advance as well, otherwise we may not have the correct number of horses ready to ride. If you bring fewer riders without notice, you will still be charged for the original number.
