Show Season 2024 Info Session for NEW Show Riders

 Hey All!

I forgot to mention in my last post that we are going to do an info session for potential new show team riders tomorrow at 2:30pm in the small arena.   If you can't make it, send us an email and we will send you the info packet.

Returning show students DO NOT need to attend, we will just be going over the basics of what is involved in competing, costs, time commitment, etc.

Tuesday, Sept 5th - Evening Classes ARE Running

 Hey Raynham Riders,

Boy is it HOT for back to school today!  We have canceled the daytime lessons and pushed the evening lessons to later when it is cooler.   Lessons will still be modified today though - lots of walk/water breaks, trips to the cross-country field to walk through the water complex, hacking, etc.  Please be sure to bring two bottles of water!

See you tonight,

Nikki

Fall Schedule Coming!

 Hey Raynham Riders,

I apologize for the delay in getting the fall lesson schedule posted, it's been an unusually busy few weeks.  I hope to have something posted by the end of the day today, but I do have to teach this afternoon/evening, so it might be tomorrow. 

Thank you for your patience,

Nikki

Tentative Summer Lesson Schedule

Hey Raynham Riders,

It's been insanely busy at the barn for the past few weeks (months, years, forever?!?) and we want to thank you for your patience as we finalized the summer lesson schedule. 

A few notes about the Summer Lesson Schedule: 

• The summer session is 8 weeks long but we are only billing for 7 weeks. So if you are going away for two weeks, you will receive a makeup booking code for one lesson (not two). If you are here for all 8, then we will add a lesson to your invoice. 
• Many of you indicated availability on Sundays or during the weekday daytime. Unfortunately, we are only running lessons on Saturdays this summer, and daytime lessons are limited since we do not have tack-up help until the evenings. If you only gave Sundays or daytime availability, we have given you an alternate time. Sorry about any confusion. 
• Once we get the schedule entered online, we will notify you so that you can book your makeup lessons before we open the schedule to pay-as-you-go clients. 
• Makeup booking codes will be sent to you with the summer lesson invoice. 

Please let us know by end-of-day tomorrow if there is an issue with your lesson time. Also, please let us know if there have been any changes to the dates you are away over the summer so that we can update your form if necessary. 

Here is the link to the Tentative Summer Schedule. 

Let us know if you have any questions and thanks again! 

Your Raynham Team
