  My daughter has been riding at Cedar Ridge Equestrian Center for five years. By riding, I mean everything from getting her horse from the pasture, grooming, saddling, feeding and clean up. She has also been a member of the CREC Pony Club for about the same time. The National Pony Club program teaches and tests horse knowledge, physiology and care as well as riding skills. Over these years she has grown as a rider and person, I could not be more proud. She has an incredible work ethic, is very organized independent and self-confident. The hard work she has put in and the lessons she has learned are evident in her school work and will continue to pay off over her lifetime.
  
  To address some of the negative posts:
  I know very little about horses, like some of the other commenters, so won't comment on the proper age of a horse for some activity. What I can comment on is the amount of care for and knowledge about horses Carolyn has. The horses at Cedar Ridge are well cared for! There are rescue horses and horses retired from competition. I am also told, much like retired people who have worked all their lives, they enjoy being ridden and it gives them something to do (not ridden in a rodeo, but walking around with a 75 pound person on them). Also it is very hard to have a conversation with a horse, regardless of topic. "Don't eat the grass the vet said you shouldn’t until your illness passes" may best be communicated by smacking a horse when it starts to eat the grass, there is nothing cruel about that. In fact the vet and special diet the horse is on, is the opposite.
  
  My daughter has taken lessons from a former Olympian for $80, on her own horse with all her own gear. She has a skill level where that type of high level instruction is worth it. Beginner lessons at CREC don't cost $80 and they include the horse and tack. My daughter might be the teacher, and she can teach the proper way to tack and mount a horse and rider position (basic beginning skills) as well as anyone.
