The Pony Ride Assistant Training is only open to those current Carriage Hill Riding Center volunteers who have completed at least one Barn Aide shift. For more information on how to get started as a Barn Aide, please visit our Carriage Hill Riding Center Volunteer Training page.
Pony Ride volunteers assist staff in conducting Pony Rides for children ages 2 - 8. Volunteers hand-lead the ponies or act as a spotter while the children ride. Volunteers are the extra set of eyes, ears, and hands that ensure each participant has a safe and engaging experience.
For training, volunteers are asked to complete a virtual training, and then attend an onsite training at the Carriage Hill Riding Center. This training is completely optional for seasoned Pony Ride Assistant volunteers.
