Become a Rider

In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an inpincible summer.Albert Camus

SCHEDULES

Sessions are scheduled Monday through Saturday between the hours of 8am to 5pm. Primary and backup volunteers are recruited for each session, so there are options to meet everyone’s time availability. We provide services year round, with occasional needs for weather related cancellations expected.  Participants are not limited to a set short session block of time.

APPLICATION PROCESS

Contact us if you or your child are interested in participating in one of our services. A certified instructor will discuss the options available to meet your needs. Once a plan of action has been decided upon, intake forms found HERE will need to be downloaded and completed prior to the first session. There are some medical conditions that would prevent some people from participating, which is why a ROTR therapist evaluates all candidates and works with attending physicians.

At the first session, an evaluation will be completed by a Physical Therapist or Certified Riding Instructor. Goals and Plan activities will be established at this visit.
