WINTER RIDING LESSON SPECIAL

We are offering a Winter Riding Lesson Special for this next semester (January-March). For little more than the price of one lesson a week you may have the opportunity to take two lessons plus a practice ride each week. That is even cheaper than a half lease, which is $400 a month. Normal cost for this special package would be $520+ and we are offering it for only $300 a month. Sorry, but at this price if you miss a lesson there are no make-ups. Call or email to book your lessons with this incredible deal.

MARCH BREAK DAY CAMP AND SUMMER CAMPS

We are already taking registrations for the March Break Day Camp and for the Summer Residential Camps. Check the website for details and registration forms. Spaces are limited so book early so you are not disappointed.


MOUNTED GAMES

We are planning to do our Mounted Games Program once a week on Saturdays,(minimum of 4 riders) . It is a lot of fun and is very good for balance and coordination. These practices are open to riders of all ages. Outsiders are welcome too, but must have riding experience and be able to at least walk and trot confidently. The cost is $40/practice but you must call or email to reserve a spot and, if needed, a pony (you can bring your own pony). These Saturday games can be paid for as you can attend but you must call to register early in the week.



FITNESS TAX CREDIT

The Government of Canada's Fitness Tax Credit (FTC) will allow parents to claim a max.
of $500/year for eligible fees paid for each child under 16 yrs of age.
Max. amount of eligible fitness tax credit program allowance is $500/ child.
The parent/taxpayer's tax bracket will determine the actual amount of the tax credit.
Shadow Ridge's March Break & Summer Camps, in addition to our weekly lesson program and mounted games program all qualify for this fitness tax credit. In accordance with the FTC stated requirements, we offer: (1) Ongoing (2) Supervised program(s) (3) Suitable for children in which substantially all of the activities undertaken include a (4) significant amount of physical activity that contributes to cardio-respiratory endurance, plus (5) one or more prescribed physical activities; Muscular strength, Muscular endurance, Flexibility, Balance. An FTC eligible program should encourage children under 10 years to strive for at least 30 minutes of sustained moderate to vigorous physical activity per session, and 60 minutes for children 10 and older. An FTC eligible program must: Run at least 8 weeks, 1 session/week. (lessons and mounted games) Run 5 consecutive days ( camps ) So please don't forget to ask me for those tax receipts!!! If you would like a receipt please ask for it now before I switch over to the new year files.
