Lesson Fees:

Private lessons are $160 each.  One hour will be allocated for each lesson, but lesson time will fluctuate to suit the level of fitness of the horse.
 
Deposits:
If you would like to ride in any of these clinics, a $100 nonrefundable deposit payable to Half-Halt Farm is required for each clinic.  This will hold your space in the clinic, or if the clinic is full, on the waiting list.  The application deadlines are April 6, June 8, and October 31.  The balance of your lesson and stabling fees will be due nine days before the first day of each clinic.
 
Please send your deposit, application, and a copy of your horse's negative Coggins to:
 
Ann Belth

5133 North Starnes Road
Bloomington, IN 47404
 
Cancellations:
In the event you need to cancel, your deposit is nonrefundable unless I can fill your space from the waiting list.  If you need to cancel after the fees deadline, your lesson fees will be nonrefundable unless I can fill your space from the waiting list.  Stabling fees would be refunded.  If you are on the waiting list, and I do not get you into the clinic, you will receive a full refund.
 
Stabling:
Limited stabling is available.  Overnight stabling is $30 per night, which includes one bag of shavings per night.  Day stalls are $20 per day, again with one bag of shavings included.  Additional shavings will be available at $7/bag.  Box stalls are 12x15 or 12x10, with rubber mats; the wash rack has hot and cold water.  The tack room/kitchenette has heat, a/c, and rest room.
 
Lunch:
Lunch will be available for $10/day on the middle three days of each clinic:  April 23-25, June 25-27, and November 17-19.  Alternatively, there is fast food available within 10 to 15 minutes of the farm.  I am not offering lunch on the first and last days because I anticipate that those days will be half days.
Health Papers:
A negative Coggins within one year of the clinic date is required for all horses.  A health paper within one month of the clinic date is required for out-of-state horses.
 
Auditing:
Auditors are welcome on the middle three days of each clinic: April 23-25, June 25-27, and November 17-19.  Pre-registration is required, as I will need to limit the number of auditors due to space considerations.  The application deadlines for auditing are April 6, June 8, and October 31.  If you would like to audit any of these clinics, full payment of the auditing fee (payable to Half-Halt Farm) with your application is necessary to hold your space.
 
Clinic riders may audit the rest of the day on which they ride at no additional fee.
 
Please mail your audit fee and application to:
