URC horses having fun in the snow!

  ***Closings will be posted HERE*** 

URC will be open for lessons Mon. 2/8.  Some areas of the drive and parking lot are still icy.  Please use caution.

Swan Lake postponed the jumper show until next Saturday 2/13... if you are on the list to go to the show, we will assume you can go next week unless you tell us otherwise.

Closings will be posted by 8:30am for morning classes & updated again at noon for afternoon classes Saturdays.  We will post closings by 3:00pm on weekdays.  We will do our best to keep you informed but we are a family owned facility and are not always in the office so use your judgment and stay safe :-)

Enjoy riding all winter in our HEATED INDOOR arena!

Riding Lessons- If you would like to start lessons immediately in a group that has openings, we can prorate the remainder of a quarter. We will be accepting registrations for the Spring session for the general public beginning Feb. 16th.  Current students should register before Feb. 15th in order to assure your spot.  New students should give the office a call for current openings or look on the lessons link.
