Major National Holiday closures, as well as vacation days for our lesson horses are built into tuition prices. Therefore there will be NO MAKEUPS if one of these events falls on your regular lesson day. This works itself out throughout the year, as there is no additional charge to monthly enrollment for lesson days that fall on the 5th week of the month- whether there are 4 weeks in a month, or five, tuition remains the same! There will be two scheduled week long breaks for our lesson horses per year in which customers will be notified of ahead of time. There will be no makeups for inclimate weather cancellations, unless two or more snow days fall on the same day of the week in a one month period. All cancellations due to competition travel on our part will be entitled to a makeup, UNLESS it falls on the 5th week of a month.
Major Holidays include:
New years eve/day
Easter Sunday
July 4th
Thanksgiving break, November 21-23, 2024
Christmas Break, December 21-27, 2024
Cancellations
All makeups will be done on designated makeup days/time slots provided by instructors. We require 24 hours ahead notice for any cancellations in order to be entitled to a makeup (unless last minute on the part of Society Hill Farm, Inc.) Pending that three different time slots have been offered to the student for their respective makeup, and the makeup is due to absence on the part of the student, MAKEUPS WILL EXPIRE 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF ABSENCE.
Pay as you go lesson packages must be used in 60 days. In order to retain the same spot while utilizing “pay as you go”, students must miss no more than two weeks in a row; we otherwise reserve the right to give the spot to another customer, in which case, another available time will be provided to you.
In the event of a student choosing to discontinue lessons in the middle of a tuition period or package, the remaining tuition or package will NOT be refunded.
