Pony Rides
Our ponies are chosen for their gentle personalities, and rigorously tested to ensure their reliability under stress. They are fully vaccinated, and a handler is assigned to each pony. For large events, several spare assistants to walk beside any small children who may have difficulty holding on. The riding area is roped off to restrict access, as a further safety practice. We are very concerned with the well-being of our animals, ensure they are alternated on and off to provide an opportunity to rest and have fresh drinking water.
Safety is our # 1 priority. All staff have been trained with careful detail being given to safe practices and risk minimization.
For birthday parties, the typical booking is for one hour with 1 pony. One pony can accommodate 12 or less children in an hour. If you expect more than 12 children you should consider either adding a second pony for the 1 hour OR 2 hours with a single pony.
All waste is removed quickly and disposed of by us.
*If you wish to have the children feed the pony carrots are the recommended choice. Make sure to cut them in fairly large chunks to minimize the risk of ponies confusing fingers with food… apples are not allowed to be fed.
