Just A quick Reminder.........

Lesson packages:
Are offered at a reduced rate in comparison to the single lesson charge. Payment for the
lesson package is due by the first lesson.  If you
do not receive all of your lessons during the
30 day period of time, the cost will reverts to the individual lesson fee and the remaining credit
will be applied to the following month only.  No cash refunds. You may cancel lessons and re-
schedule them only during the current month.

Lesson Cancellations:
24 hour notice is required to cancel a lesson without penalty. Cancelled lessons should be re-
scheduled for the current week. If unable to makeup a lesson during the week, two lessons
should be scheduled for the following week. Last minute cancellations and no-shows will be
charged as a lesson and may not be rescheduled. Understanding that emergencies arise, we
will allow two late cancellations per year without penalty.
You must call to cancel, please leave message at Farm number 364-3444. Of course, this
does not apply to mutually agreed upon cancellations due to weather, etc.
HAPPY

At Cross Timbers we ride year round. During the Fall and
Winter months the weather can be unpredictable. And now
that the cold weather is on the way. We want to remind
parents and students to dress appropriately for colder
weather. Please dress in layers. This way riders can shed
layers as they get warm. Parents blankets and hot coffee are
always a good idea. Students if you are not properly dressed,
you will given written work inside instead of riding your horse.

Many riders would be far more comfortable horseback riding
in the wintertime if they were properly dressed.

1. Long underwear or polar fleece breeches. Sweat pants
slipped over other pants can provide a lot of warmth in the
event of unexpected cold.
2. A warm sweater or polar fleece jacket/vest.
3. Thinsulite riding gloves and winter, ski-type socks.
4. Boots of adequate size to accommodate sufficiently warm
socks (possibly more than one pair of socks).
5. Since a warm head is also important, some students
successfully wear a lightweight stocking cap under their
helmet. Give it a try!

Check out your local saddle shops for winter riding apparel or
go on-line.

It is not necessary to spend a lot of money to keep warm. You
probably have most of the above items already.

Winter is Coming....



This program is an opportunity for you and our other students to
have fun together, make new friends and maybe even learn
something new. On months that have 5 weekends, an organized
fun activity will be planned on a Saturday afternoon. Instructors will
be present to supervise and parents, spouses, friends and
spectators are encourage to help set-up and participate in the
equestrian entertainment.
For students that do not have a horse, a Cross Timbers lesson
horse may be reserved to ride as long as you are a student in our
Lesson Program. Riders of all ages are welcomed. Light
refreshments will be provided. Below is the tentative schedule.
Please make payment the week before lesson date

               Some new pricing for 2009        
Within the last several months, there has been a lot of media
attention concerning the rising cost of everyday living. We have

regret the need to adjust our rates.
