Notes

For four years, Rainbow Connection offered Carriage Driving classes on Wednesday mornings with Bud the Percheron in the lead. NARHA certified driving instructors Pete Johnson and Jaylee Krier conduct classes teaching students how to harness and drive a horse and carriage through a variety of obstacles, offering the challenges of timed events and increasingly difficult courses to motivate our drivers. Using a horse and carriage gives participants an alternative or addition to riding, opening up the world of horses to those who may be unable to ride due to weight, balance or the inability to sit astride.
