HORSE LEASING PROGRAM
Stonehaven Farm offers lease options on selected horses and ponies. These programs will allow
riders who do not own their own horse to enjoy some of the benefits without the huge expense
of purchasing, boarding and care. Riders leasing will be allowed first choice on their leased
horse during horseshows and during their regular scheduled lessons. We can not guarantee the
leased horse for makeup lessons. The non-lesson rides included can be used to increase and
strengthen the rider’s skills or just have fun riding the trails and property with some of our
boarders and lease riders. All Non-Lesson rides will need to be on assigned days around the
horse’s other lesson schedule rides. Any make up lessons would need to be arranged.
REGULATIONS OF LEASING:
1. Only the rider leasing may ride the horse leased, rides can not be shared with other family
members unless authorized by Lease Management. Stonehaven accepts responsibility for cost
of Farrier and veterinarian costs that are incurred by no fault of the rider.
2. Jumping is not permitted at anytime unless you are in a lesson.
3. Riders under l8 years old must have guardian present during non-lesson rides or permission
to ride without.
4. Proper grooming, warm-up, cool down,. and care of horses will be the responsibility of the
rider. Rider’s neglecting or abusing regulations of our horses will forfeit riding privileges
without refund. Riding time of 1 hour must include the warm-up walking and cool-down
walking time of at least 15 minutes, this leaves 45 min. of trot, and canter with walking breaks.
5. Riding time must be scheduled in advance and changes need to be scheduled.
6. All riding must be completed in the month leased, no refunds or make-ups outside the lease
month. If you can not makeup a lesson it may be substituted with a non lesson ride.
7. All payments are due the 1st of each month regardless of lease dates. Please note that there
may be a 25.00 late fee for payments received after the first ride of the month. Lease must be
accepted for a minimum of six months, unless otherwise agreed to by Lease Management.
Two (2) weeks notice to cancel lease must be given, even at the end of a lease period if you
are not going to continue. If cancellation is made prior to the end of the 6 month lease, the
Lease Value will be calculated for the time actually leased based on that option price, and the
difference paid by the leaser. Any cancellations prior to the minimum 6 months will be subject
to actual pricing of lessons, and non-lesson rides offered in the lease months, plus 50.00 per
month cost for use of the barns for saddle and supply storage.
