CRE Dedicated Rider Program

At CRE, we offer a unique program for the dedicated, serious equestrian. On a limited/approved basis, we allow a limited number of students to board their horse at CRE or to lease one of our horses (see leasing page for more details). The students must commit to participating in a minimum of 6 lessons per month (group or private lessons), this policy helps to ensure that the students is dedicated to learning and growing with their horse. We also ask that the horse is suitable to be utilized for other lessons during the week for other students of CRE, of course all horses are assessed by CRE instructors and only placed in lessons with riders/students that are a suitable match for the horse. This policy helps to keep the horse in shape for their owner and allows CRE to provide a variety of lesson horses. Dedicated riders have access to using indoor/outdoor arenas and round pen when lessons are not in session. Dedicated riders have access to participating in a variety of clinics, camps, lessons and events offered onsite by CRE. We do not offer general boarding at our facility.
