Leasee gets first dibs on using 'their horse' in lessons and in horse shows.

Please note that we are a riding school and the lesson schedules take priority of all horses' time.

Each Leasee requires a minimum of 4 month's commitment.
Standard lease agreements are made for 6 months to a year.

Leasee is responsible for their share (Quarter, half or full) of horse maintenance
(such things like farrier, vet and supplements, if any).

Please note that minor students leasing horses and/or ponies will need to provide their own supervision
during their 'own' practice ride times.

* Leased horses are available for SBS students only
and rates are based per 1 person/horse
Except, FULL LEASE allows 2 Persons to share this package!

MORE LEASING DETAILS...

Each lease involves a MINIMUM 4 month commitment, a standard horse lease is 6 months. A percentage share of the cost of the horse
expenses such as farrier and vet are split with horse owner.

Students who lease, get first priority for use of their horse in lessons.
The largest leasee portion gets priority.
If two students both half lease, it's up to instructor's discretion and we'll work to equal sharing of horse.

If a student wishes to take their leased horse off property for beach trail rides or hauling to horse shows, the Leasee must purchase medical
insurance coverage for their horse. Whereas, all leasees agree to take full responsibility if horse is injured during their lease agreement.

Leasees are to provide own tack and saddle pads. Tack is NOT included in a lease for a horse.
Leasee is responsible for all dispensable items such as fly sprays, shampoos, ointments, medicines for cuts, etc.
that are used on "their own horse."

Leased horses are to be ridden and used by the specified leasee only and are not available for the leasee's family and friends' additional
use. If two students want to share a lease, they may both purchase a half lease individually or a full lease and split the training package.

Our instructors can help match you with the best mount for you!

Leased horse remain boarded at Sandy Bay Stables in Rockport.

For more information, please speak with your instructor about the horse or pony that would be a good match for you!

at which time the school will be closed and all school activities (i.e. all lessons) will be held off property if participation allows.

TRAVEL SHOWS

Students who wish to participate in AWAY HORSE SHOWS should be training, practicing, and preparing for this kind of competition. This
involves more than a once a week hobby lesson. Students who don't own their horse and want to participate in travel horse shows with
our school horses should be in a Lease Training package
