CHECK INCHECK INHELPFUL hints & TIPS

May I bring more than one horse?Yes, however this clinic is designed as a learning experience for you. Therefore, you should bring the horse that allows you to concentrate and benefit the most from this experience. One stall is included in the tuition. All other horses will be an additional $50 for stall fee.

May I bring my well behaving stallion?Although we do not dispute the temperament of your horse, keep in mind stallions can create problems with other horses. Stall space is limited. We will do our best to place a stallion next to geldings. Please take all possible precautions when handling or tying your stallion and keep a safe distance from other horses.

What equipment should I bring?If you’re bringing your own horse, you should bring everything to the clinic that you take to the arena and everything you would need to maintain your horse for the length of the stay. Anything you find yourself lacking will be available for purchase through David’s Western Store and NRS.

What equipment should I bring if leasing?None if you’re leasing a horse.

Will I have a chance to ask questions?It is our intent to provide all the individual help our time constraints allow. It is important to take full advantage of the one-on-one help that is available and also learn from listening while others receive individual instruction.

May I videotape with my own camera?You are more than welcome to videotape your runs. However, we ask that you do not videotape the lectures.

What if my horse gets hurt?Emergency lameness or illness that occurs during the clinic should be brought to the attention of the NRS Events Staff as soon as possible. Situations will be resolved on a case–by-case basis. There is a veterinarian’s office close by.

Is food provided?Each student’s tuition includes breakfast and lunch each day. Clinics are from 8am-5pm all 3 days, breakfast is at 8 and lunch is at 12. Guests may eat with them for $10 a person for breakfast and $15 a person for lunch.

I can’t make it to the first day of the clinic, is that okay?We would love to have you here for the entire clinic; however, we do understand that today’s busy world may interfere with your fun. Full tuition is required regardless of attendance but we will do our best to catch you up on what you missed.

I’m under 18 years of age, is that okay?We accept and encourage the attendance of people of all ages; however, to participate, the student must be at least 10 years old. Any participant under age 14 must have a parent riding in the clinic also or observing on the sidelines at all times. Students under 18 years of age must have a parent/guardian present to sign a release form.

Are there hook-ups for my living quarters trailer?Yes. There are electrical hook-ups, but you must bring extension cords and water hoses. There are no sewer connections so all waste must be contained.

Are spectators welcome, and if so, is there a charge?Yes, anyone may audit the clinic and participate in any discussions for a fee of $50 per day. Meals will be included. Guests of students are welcome to watch.

Can my family hang around during the clinic?Yes, we would love to have them. They may also eat with us at a cost of $10 for breakfast and $15 for lunch or dinner or 3-day Package includes breakfast and lunch all three days for $75.

Can I bring my dog?We understand pets are family and when traveling they must go along. If you must bring your dog, we ask that it stay tied to your trailer, in your vehicle/trailer or on a leash at all times! We have a kennel available near the bunkhouse so please make your reservations early. Pets are not allowed in the bunkhouses. If you keep your pet in a bunkhouse or cabin without a crate, or your pet leaves hair or damage to the décor, you will be subject to a $50 cleaning fee.

Can I bring a grill?You are welcome to bring a gas grill if you wish, as the bunkhouses do not have kitchenettes. Remember to also bring a cooler for food if you wish to prepare your own evening meals. There is a great patio area with an open fire grill and wood available in front of the bunkhouse along with picnic tables and seating.

What is the check in process?There is no official Check-in process. If you have a bunkhouse, stall or hook-up they will be ready to go, just use your Code to get in. If you have any problems at all, call: 940-626-9192. Other than that, all you need to do is show up at 8 am in the cookhouse for breakfast the first day of the clinic, and we will fill you in from there! Your horse will not need to be saddled before breakfast, just feed them and we will tell you when to saddle!.
