Eventing clinics are held on a regular basis. Since the state of Massachusetts requires that all riding instructors be licensed, the staff demonstrates a high level of expertise and commitment to helping riders develop and improve. Even those at the highest levels of the sport continue to improve their riding, training and teaching skills, and most of Wetherbee Farm's instructors are active competitors. The programs at Wetherbee Farm also help to dispel the myth that you have to own a horse in order to be able to ride on a regular basis. The 15 lesson horses available provide a variety of levels, enabling students to progress as far as they wish.
Partial leases are also available.
If people reach the point of buying their own horse they just have to keep it somewhere else, although they are always welcome to come back for lessons on one of our horses or their own. The Hassananmisco Pony Club holds its mounted meetings at Wetherbee Farm and although Pony Club is typically directed toward young people with their own ponies, most of the Hassananmisco members ride lesson horses. This gives local children an opportunity to develop responsibility and teamwork while having fun with horses. They receive instruction in riding and horse care, see demonstrations and have plenty of fun and games. The Foxes were particularly pleased when, four years ago, their daughter Rondi Peterson decided to become professionally involved in the business by taking over as barn manager for the busy operation.
