At The Mulford Riding School, safety is paramount. To keep the students (and horses, dogs and cats!) healthy and safe, the following rules must be observed. Anyone dropping off, picking up, or watching riders must also be aware of these rules:
- Arrival/Pickup – Please wait by the RED GATE next to the back parking area until called for your lesson. Please stay back from the fence and do not pet or feed the horses while waiting.
- Riders Only – Only riders are permitted beyond the RED GATE to the barn area unless you are given specific prior permission by the instructor. DO NOT FEED the horses by hand.
- Playground – Please, the playground is off limits.
- Pets – Please do not let your pets out of your car, no matter how friendly they may be.
- Attire – Helmets, riding pants, and protective footwear are required.
- DRESS APPROPRIATELY for the WEATHER! (Raincoats when it’s raining, gloves and long underwear when it’s cold, etc.)
- Class Start – Please do not arrive more than 5 minutes before the start of your class.
- Have fun – When all the rules are followed everyone, horses included, can have a great time – riding is supposed to be fun!
