Therapeutic Horseback Riding

In collaboration with Briggs Stable, we are pleased to again offer our Therapeutic Riding Program. Therapeutic Riding has many benefits for children with special needs including physical, sensory, emotional, cognitive and social. This program will introduce the child to all aspects of the riding experience including: becoming familiar with the farm setting, the animals, the equipment and the aspects of riding.  The program will be instructed by certified PATH (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International) and Massachusetts licensed riding instructors.  

All children are required to wear long pants, boots and have a helmet. 

Ages 6-22

There are 3 options for Riding:

  • 6 sessions, Tuesdays ONLY 1/2 hour June 27-August 1  Times range every half hour from 8-10am; Tuesday July 4 will be made up on Wednesday July 5        FEE $150
