So your ready to join the team, thats great! We can't wait to meet you and get started on our experience of a lifetime! Please read the following to learn of what it takes to become part of the Hope Therapeutic Riding Society.

Please contact us for more information.

Please have the forms below filled out and given to the instructor at the first day of riding. Be aware that if the forms are not completed the instructor will not be able to allow you/your child to participate.

A rider profile will indicate the goals and objectives that will be supported, adapted, and placed into the riding lesson as developmentally appropriate learning. An instructor will be in the ring providing directions and instruction. One to one supports and assistance will be provided to the HTRS rider to ensure follow through and comprehension.

Please also check with the instructor on the first day as to what the weather policy is. Also a meet and greet session is available upon request prior to your first riding session. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
