Boarding
Horses at WillsWay are turned out as much as possible – weather permitting and according to owner’s preference. Our over-sized paddocks are lush with green grass and most provide shelter with large run-in sheds. Taking up residence in either of our barns gives you full access to all of the amenities offered on the farm including: 85’ x 200’ indoor arena; temperature controlled tack rooms, lounge and viewing room, kitchens; 100’ x 200’ outdoor arena with lights; multiple wash stalls (indoor and out) with hot / cold water. Horses boarded at WillsWay Equestrian Center must be in either a Training program or Lesson package. Lessons discounted for boarders.

Policies
Cancellation Policy:
WillsWay Equestrian Center has a 24-hour notice Cancellation Policy. To avoid a cancellation fee, 24-hour notice is required. If proper notice is given (24-hours or more), a make-up lesson can be scheduled. Continual absences, rescheduling, no shows, or no cancellation calls will result in the loss of your standing lesson time.
Weather Policy:
Lessons are canceled when the temperature is greater than 95 degrees or below 10 degrees. Cancellation for any other weather related issue will be made on an individual basis.
Lesson Policy:
~ Riders should arrive on time and with proper attire. All riders must wear long pants (no capris, or shorts), shoes that fully enclose the foot and have a heel (NO sneakers). If the rider doesn’t have an SEI Approved riding helmet WillsWay will provide a helmet for your use. For safety reasons, family and friends at the barn during the time of the lessons must also wear shoes that fully enclose the foot. (No sandals, flip-flops, crocs or shoes that do not fully enclose the foot.)
~ Riders should plan to arrive early enough to groom and tack their horse and be in the arena at least 5-10 minutes prior to the start of their lesson time warming up their horse. The rider’s ride time and horse will be listed on the white board in the lower barn.
~ In the event that the rider is late, an attempt will be made by the instructor to compensate the rider for the lost time ONLY if the instructor and horse’s schedule allow and/or the additional time doesn’t interfere with the start of another client’s lesson.
~ If the rider is more than 15 minutes late to their lesson, they will not be able to ride and payment will be expected for the lesson.
~ If rider is a “no show” for a booked lesson, or gives less than the required 24-hour cancellation notice, you the parent and/or rider agree that WillsWay may charge your credit card on file for the full amount of the lesson.
~ Standing weekly time slots can only be reserved with either a pre-paid lesson package or monthly pre-paid lessons that are paid by the 1st of each month.
~ WillsWay Equestrian Center reserves the right to change instructors without notice.
Refund Policy:
~ Refunds are not given for riding lessons. WillsWay Equestrian Center will make every effort to schedule a make-up lesson. Make-up lessons must be scheduled within two weeks from date of missed or cancelled lesson.
