CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS
We are gearing up for our 2023 riding season and need volunteers! Our season runs April through June and we need at least 3 Session Volunteers per rider each session. To apply to be a Session Volunteer, you must be at least 16 years old. Side Walkers walk along side the rider to keep them secure on the horse while Lead Walker help guide the horse, rider, and Side Walkers around the arena.

We also need Maintenance Crew volunteers. As a part of the Maintenance Crew, volunteers assist with cleaning stalls, maintaining the riding arena, and other tasks around the farm. We need Maintenance Crew year round, to keep the farm and the horses clean and safe for riders.
