Saturday is Stadium Day at Black Dog Farm (Plant City). Lauren will meet all horse and rider combinations who she has not previously schooled
and we’ll get to tune up on stadium before going out on course. Jumping
lessons will be individual, private lessons approximately 1 hour in length. (Cost $45) If two riders are at the same level
and want to do a group lesson the cost is ($35). Stalls available for the day
for $15, you clean.
Sunday is Cross Country Schooling Day at Fannin Hill Farm (Brooksville).
Lauren will work with riders in groups of 3-4 on the cross country course. We
anticipate we’ll need two to three groups, with each group riding 1 ½-2hrs hours.

Fannin
Hill charges a $35 fee per horse for Cross Country schooling. Anyone hauling

Riders without trailers are expected to cover fuel costs for their hauler.

by Dec. 12th so ride times can be sent out. Also include what level
of horse and rider combination you are so appropriate groups can be made. You can contact Lauren by e-mail lauren_deneve@yahoo.com or by phone 281-382-6522. Schedule will be posted on Black Dog Farm Website the week prior to the clinic.
