Do you love to trail ride? Are you staying at home instead of going out because your horse gives you problems every time you take him anywhere? For a price cheaper than sending your horse to a trainer and you to a professional riding instructor, Jimmy Driver can help you fix those problems and get you back out on the trail making new riding friends and enjoying your equine partner. Jimmy will work one on one with the you in the arena the first day. The second day you take your new knowledge out to the pasture. Jimmy will be able to watch and help you with you specific problems. The clinic will help everything from barn and buddy sour, shying, trailer loading, and more. Last year was a blast and lots of problems were fixed for good. This year on the trail there will be a tack hunt! (like an Easter egg hunt just with horse prizes!) We have 12 spots open and the cost is $350.00 for the weekend (Sat & Sun). Included in the price are stalls or paddocks and lunch for both days. There will be a $100.00 non-refundable deposit (part of the total cost) to be paid in advance to hold your spot. NEGATIVE COGGINS is required. Auditing spots are available for the first day only. The cost to audit will be 30 dollars. Bring your own chair, and shade (lunch is included) . Come and get Trail Smart. Meet local horse people, make new friends and learn how to enjoy your horse out on the trail. Reserve you spot today.
