I understand that as a member of A&A’s volunteer program I am obligated to do my best to keep myself, coworker, and these horses safe and that I understand that this volunteer position requires my commitment. Despite the fact that there is NO PAY attached to this position, it is a “job” and I understand that the rescue and the horses depend on me to show up for my scheduled days and times regardless of weather. I further understand that if I am a proficient rider I may be granted the privilege of riding a horse or pony for exercising at certain times to help them, BUT there is NO GUARANTEE that I will get to ride, and it depends entirely on staffing to supervise the riders, the availability and heath of the various horses and also the weather. If I am not a proficient rider but want to learn I may be able to take lessons at a significantly reduced rate. Initial below.
