Summer Bits and Pieces~
Schedule Changes~
Summer always bring lots of changes here at the ranch. Clients go on vacation, summer campers arrive, new clients start, others take the summer off and show season kicks into high gear. Here are some summer reminders-
Vacation Requests~
If you will be leaving on vacation this summer please give notice in writing or by email as soon as possible. Include your name, the student’s name, the dates you will be gone and whether you wish to make-up the lessons or receive vacation credit. You may have 4 weeks of vacation credit per year. We reserve the right to deny a vacation credit, only allow lesson make-ups or charge a re-billing fee if vacation notice is received after statements are emailed on the 20th of the month. Vacation credits will not be given by phone call or text messages.
Ranch Attire~ I know it gets really, really hot during the summer but please remember to wear correct attire when visiting the ranch. The safety of our clients is always our first priority. Therefore; sandals, flip-flops and clogs are not permitted in the barn area at any time. Non-riders wearing sandals will be directed to the spectator area behind the arena.
Riders must always wear sleeved shirts, long pants and riding boots. Tank tops, shorts and Capri pants are not acceptable riding attire. If you show up to ride in this attire, you will be denied a lesson that day. Thank you for your understanding.

Shows 2012 ~
Our second show of the 2012 season was a great success! Sherry Shih & Holly come home with English W/T High Point. Athena Williams came home Reserve English High Point. Sheridan Pipkin (riding in her very first show ever) and Holly placed in every class and even got a 2nd in Western Obedience. Caroline Ong & Chewie also placed in every class. Way to go everyone!
We are looking forward to the July 15th YLCR show and hoping all our riders will be there as well. Be sure to sign up early if you want to attend.
