INTERMEDIATE

HORSEBACK RIDING LESSON

Meetup Date: Friday, March 15th

Meeting Time: 4:30pm

Ending Time: 6pm

Fees: $31

IMPORTANT --Please be sure to read and understand the protocol for confirming your rsvp for this particular event.  The information is listed near the bottom of this event page.  You will not be confirmed as going just based on rsvp'ing yes like you would be for most events. Be sure to follow the instructions given.

Have you ever wanted to ride a horse, but didn't know how?  Come spend an hour and a half with Melissa, as she teaches you the skills involved in grooming, tacking, riding, and after-care of the horse. Then spend the majority of your time actually riding. We will be posting some additional trail ride events in the near future, so come nail down the basics to ensure that you will be confident. Melissa is experienced at teaching these lessons, so will be a great instructor.  The minimum age of participants is 10 years old.

The group size will be limited to 5 participants due to the available number of horses for instruction, and to provide more individualized lessons.  In order to ensure that people do not sign up and then bail at the last minute, half of the fees will be required to be paid up front via paypal as part of your rsvp.  This amount will be considered as your deposit, and will serve to show your commitment to attend. The deposit will be non-refundable, with the exception of if the event has to be cancelled for any reason by the host.  In understanding that sometimes unexpected incidents do happen, in the event that you have paid a deposit and can not make it at the last minute, your deposit may be put toward a future event at the discretion of the host. Please only RSVP if you have full intentions of attending.

Tucked into the shadow of historic Grindstone Mountain, Hidden Hills Farm & Saddle Club is located on over 500 acres of pastures and woodlands just outside scenic Chattanooga, TN.
