WHEN DOES WHITE FAWN FARM OFFER LESSONS?
We are very excited to announce that we just installed lights for our riding arena and will be extending our weekday lessons into early evening. Currently, we offer lessons Monday through Saturday. At the current time we do not have a cover for our arena so outdoor sessions during inclement weather are not possible. We hope that we will be able to add those facilities soon. However, we do offer lessons inside the barn that have proven to be highly beneficial when being outdoors is not possible.

2. Receipt of a physician’s medical history and release is required when making application into the program for participants with diagnosed disabilities and special-needs. Participant family
members and participants from programs like CASA or Franktown are not required to obtain this information.
3. An in-person evaluation by our PATH International Advance Riding Instructor will be made.
