Updates

So a lot of stuff is getting thrown at us. Here are some updates from our instructors.

We really want all of the riders to have spurs, they really do help with some of our horses. All riders will be expected to have spurs after the first of the year. Please wear them now, if you have them!

Ride:    Don't forget your spurs.  Come prepared and ready to work.
Diagramming:    Sequence Test ( I don't have too take this one because I have passed 3)

 Quiz 3    -    Museum Study Guide, American Flag Etiquette, and Rule book Sections (costumes through maintenance)

                                                  There is no reason why anyone will not be able to take this quiz.  We have attached information and the study guide just in case.

                                20 Handwritten Sequences (Also don't have too do)

 Don't forget your supplies and notebooks as you will be getting the second set of diagrams and corrections

Please Don't forget it is your responsibility to get with the instructor(s) if you have missed a class BEFORE the next class time to get the work you missed made up.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

        Based on the amount of missing pages that were not turned in last week, we as instructors will be implementing a new rule starting next ride.  The riders will be required to meet with the instructors at least 30 to 45 minutes prior to the White Star ride to hand in the required diagrams.  If you do not turn in all the diagrams that are due for that day you will ride the rail for the White Star ride.  You will still be responsible for paying for your rental horse for the day.  We are implementing this for safety reasons.

As you can see they are really stressing spurs because they really do help some of the livery horses and make it so we can learn our drill more quickly and efficiently. Our instructors are also stressing diagrams. If someone is falling too far behind and rides. They will be lost and not know where they are going and get someone hurt. I do not have to take a Sequence Test or turn in 20 Sequences because I passed the first 3 tests. I do have to take Quiz #3. Can't wait to ride! I wonder when we will get to start riding our drill... Probably at least by next ride.  It will be nice having two rides again. I am lucky I even get that opportunity. I hope the weather is nice and the arenas aren't muddy so we can lope again! Loping is by far the best gate ever. Such a fluid rocking motion and so easy to ride. Just slower than a full out run. Walk, Trot, Lope, Gallop! RIDE WITH PRIDE!!!

Who Are We?! WHITE STAR!
