I have a child (age 4-8) that falls into the lower rate category, and I noticed that the rate sheet denotes “limited/restricted riding” for this age group. What does this entail?
A. The restriction means that children 8 and younger are only eligible to ride tandem with a parent, or ride solo via lead line in one of our arenas while in the parent’s care. Basically, at the lower rate (8 & under), children don’t get to ride their “own” horse on the open trails. Since most children in this age group are not ready for this responsibility, they receive a lower rate. However, at the parents’ discretion, one may upgrade a younger child (i.e. 8 yrs old) to the older children’s rate (ages 9-15) to gain full riding privileges.
