The rider levels 1-4 are based on the Western Preparation Manual which can be purchased through Northern Ridge Equestrian Centre, or the Ontario Equestrian Federation. Once the outlined tasks have been completed and fully understood, the rider then has the option of being tested to receive the level certificate before moving on to the next level.

If the rider chooses not to be tested they will still move ahead and work on the next level. For more details on the Western Preparation Manual and what the levels consist of please speak to Marj.

Quality Horse Boarding

 

While boarding your horse at Northern Ridge, we will provide daily feed schedules, turn out in large paddocks and pastures, daily stall cleaning and minor first aid upon request. We will also set up all vet and farrier appointments. All horse owners will be notified of any emergency!  It is highly recommended that all horses have flu/rhino vaccinations due to the large number of horses on the farm. All new horses MUST be up to date on vaccinations, and deworming.
