 "Barn Etiquette"  by  Cindy K. (McKinnon) Roberts

 These simple rules will keep you out of trouble.

1.  NO SMOKING- except in outside of barns.  Dispose of your butts properly in the correct containers 

2. Horses will be ridden and or handled by OWNERS and their IMMEDIATE family members ONLY.  

3.  Do not feed treats to horses without the owner's permission.  

4.  Longeing - This is permitted in the indoor ring only when no one is riding, for the safety of all involved.

5.  Husbands, dogs and children should be kept on a leash at all times.  

6.  Boarders are responsible for their own personal maintenance.  This includes:

·      sweeping or raking up

·      picking up equipment

·      turning off aisle lights

·      returning gates, door, etc. to their original position.

7.  Please, if you or your horse drops anything, pick it up immediately. This includes at the hitching posts and parking areas. 

8.  It is suggested that the people riding outside the immediate stabling area go riding with a partner for their own safety.

9.  HARD HATS should be worn on riders 18 and younger. Approved ASTM hats are mandatory for all junior riders.

10. A visual check of fence and gate is required by everyone before any horse is to be turned out.  Turn out is at owner’s risk.

12.  No jumping to be done unless an approved ground person is there or you are in a lesson. 

13. No horse is to be left unattended on the crossties. Equipment should be prepared and located at the crosstie area before removing your horse from the stall.  Horses should be returned to their stalls as soon as possible to keep the aisle way clear.

14. Equipment will not be used without the owners’ permission.  If you borrow something (with permission), return it properly.

15. Ring Etiquette - Considerate riding and sharing of barn facilities is necessary.  All horses should work in the same direction of the arena.  We were all once beginners, please be courteous.  If passing a horse going in opposite direction, it is to be done left shoulder to left shoulder, or calling a position.
