DE-SPOOKING CLINIC
9:00-11:00, Saturday, October 31st
Kick off Halloween with FRC's De-Spooking Clinic from 9:00 until 11:00. Our indoor arena will be transformed into a House of Horse Horrors, where riders can help their equine partners learn to be brave in the face of plastic bags, smoke, hoses, puddles, banners, tarps, bridges and all the other terrors that lurk around every corner. The clinic will begin with gentle, rider-led, unmounted exposure to various stimuli, followed by mounted exposure for riders (and horses) who feel confident in taking the next step. Member cost: $45 with your horse, $60 with ours. Nonmember cost: $75 with your horse. Proof of UTD Coggins required for haul-ins. Auditors welcome at no charge. Call or email to reserve your spot.
HORSE & RIDER COSTUME CONTEST
11:00-Noon, Saturday, October 31st
Halloween is about dressing up and getting treats. FRC's Halloween Horse & Rider Costume Contest lets you include your equine bestie in the fun. We won't have any tricks, but there will be treats - and prizes! Member cost: $10 with your horse, $25 with ours. Nonmember cost: $25 with your horse. Proof of UTD Coggins required for haul-ins. Call or email to reserve your spot - and be sure to invite family and friends to cheer you on!
