Maddox Family Farm Rules - Please read, thank you!

The Maddox Family Farm Rules

1. Wear an ASTM rated helmet and a heeled boot anytime you are on a horse.

2. Prior to getting on a horse you must complete the rider waiver online.

3. No running while on property. (speed walking is ok!)

4. Poop happens, if your horse poops in the arena or cross ties, please clean up as soon as possible.

5. Sweep up cross ties before and after you ride, so the next person gets a fresh/clean area to tack up in.

6. Dogs are allowed on property, however they must stay on leash and be well behaved (no barking, unless they are Tom & Jerry). Please make sure to pick up after your dog, as well. Keep all dogs at least 10’ from arena edges for safety of dogs and horses.

7. Please do not ride your horses down the driveway next to the large covered arena. You can cross over the driveway to use our trails.

8. Turn off the lights if you are the last one leaving the barn.

9. Pasture turnout in the grass pastures is fine, however, you need to stay with your horse while they are out.

10. While tacking up in the stall please make sure to use the stall ties provided to keep both horse and rider safe.

11. Please use water sparingly when washing your horses. Use a bucket and sponge as much as possible.

12. Please make sure to drive 10 mph once you come through our gates. We have horses being ridden all over the property and the safety of our horses and riders is very important.

We hope that you enjoy our farm as much as we do! Thank you for being awesome!
