A limited number of working students are accepted.
It is a serious commitment
and responsibility
to be accepted as a working student.
Working students are often looked up to as 'role
model's' for the younger riders and other clients.
Working students are to be courteous,
polite and well mannered. They are to conduct themselves
in a manner consistent with this philosophy.
 We
are currently looking to accept 2 or 3 outstanding,
dedicated & reliable working students into our 2008
program.
Applicants should be self-motivated, self-disciplined,
dependable and organized. Applicants must have their
parent's permission, prior to being considered or
accepted as a working student.
The
working students gain valuable insight and the hands-on
experiences to possibly look towards the future with a
successful career in the equine industry. They work
along side and learn from a staff of proven equine
professionals, including trainers, instructors, judges,
appraisers, farriers and veterinarians.
Working students take an active role in stable
management, equine nutrition, first aid, grooming,
tacking/untacking, equipment care and general equine
care.
Working students may be asked to ride, school or
hack during their work hours at the sole discretion of
High Knoll Equestrian Center management.
HKEC and
various equine professionals associated with the
operation of HKEC are happy to provide references for
working students who have successfully demonstrated
their proficiency. |
