bulletTrailering

We have two trailering options at White Horse Hill. The first is a standard Kingston two horse trailer. For those larger outings  and horse shows we have a  six horse gooseneck with room for a seventh small horse on the floor and a tack room / changing room up front. 

bulletHorse Shows

        We regularly attend a number of horse shows in the local area we will try to post the schedule of planned shows on the events page in the future. Please contact the barn if you  are interested in showing.

 
bulletBuying/selling horses   White Horse Hill always tries to have a variety of horses available for sale, both consignment and our own. We only have horses that try to please--no high strung, bad actors here. The horses are mostly used in our lesson program until someone falls in love with them. In addition, we do also have a few select lovely, young prospects -- good movers, athletic, good guy/girl types. Judy will happily help find a suitable horse if we don't have the right match for you. Ask our customers-- we specialize in trying to find just the right mount!

                 

bulletExtra Medical Care
bulletClinics (both in house & outside)   At White Horse Hill, we provide regular instruction by instructors with a variety of backgrounds. We encourage our more advanced students to ride with different instructors to increase their exposure. As an extension of this, we try to offer in house video clinics and specialty clinics throughout the year and outside clinicians as often as possible. Our recent clinic with jumper rider, Leann Kelly Flavin, was a great success in terms of both fun and learning! We will have Leann again soon.

 

bulletSummer children's program  In the summers, White Horse Hill holds 4 one week sessions of summer riding program for children. This is a great success all around! In all of these programs the children ride twice daily.  OLDER STUDENTS: We also offer a session for students who can at least jump (show) at the 2'6" level. This offers 2 longer lessons per day, one dressage and one jumping. Weather permitting, two of the jumping lessons are over the cross country jumps.

 

bulletWorking Student Program White Horse Hill will consider applications for working students. The program includes hands on experience in horse care, training, riding and showing (where appropriate). The program is available on a part or full time basis pending availability. Applicants must have some horse experience. Possible pasture board available if student has own horse. (Applicants must be at least 18 years old.)

 

bulletApprentice/Refresher Instructor Program As anyone who's considered teaching horse back riding in Massachusetts knows-- INSTRUCTORS MUST BE LICENSED BY THE STATE. We are often approached by people who want to apprentice teach or refresh their teaching skills at White Horse Hill. This program aims to address this need. Qualified applicants must be 18 years or older and must have significant horse background and knowledge. Successful applicants must be good role models and emphasize safety. The program offers instruction in teaching techniques, strategies and goals. Apprentices are given an opportunity to teach in both private and group situations. As a participant you must agree to receive instruction from other apprentices. This program is meant to jump start participants. It is not our aim to provide the required 6 months (60 hours) of apprenticeship for each participant. We hope that each person will use the skills that they have acquired to continued use, in order to obtain the required apprentice hours for the state license. There is a fee for participation in this program.
