I purchased a hat on March 28 and as of April 9 it has still not been shipped. I have communicated with them three times. The first time I was ignored. The second time I was told it would be shipped 'this week.' The third time I was told in an irritated fashion that I had already been told it would be shipped.I appreciate that it is a volunteer led organization but I paid $10 for a $28 hat to be shipped and literally 12 days later nobody had bothered shipping it yet.Do not purchase any merchandise from them unless you want to wait literally weeks for anything to be sent.

awful experience. instructors are rude and bully kids, too much homework & quizzes (why do you need a QUIZ and HOMEWORK to ride horses?????), they don't teach you anything, and the horses don't live a good life + are hardly trained. ridiculous place.

99.99 percent volunteer run organization which is astronomical given it's size; positive for youth in every facet, and a darn good time.

Teaches everything a child needs to know about horses. From equestrian first aid, tack and parts of the horse.

I was in Westernaires when I was a child from 1970 to 1972 until my dad's work transfered him out of state. This was the most memorable experience of my life. Mr Wyland was still around back then and still active. The first year as a tenderfoot I learned the basics. Back then it was only $2 to rent the horse with lessons. The next year I was in Caribbean pony team. We wore outfits that included a hat with fruit on top and these frilly arm tops with white jeans capris that were frayed at the bottom. The ponies were al brown and white paint color. People used to ask us how we could tell them apart. Their markings of course. I was assigned to a pony named Angel that I rode at each practice and in shows. I was short, so she was smaller than others. I also took trick roping and clown school classes. The horsecapades show was so exciting. I was a clown in the show and also in the pony team. Changing costumes in between was hectic, but exciting. As a clown, I was also in a couple parades. And one parade we rode the ponies in Estes Park. The next year in 72 I was on the Lancers team and that's the year we moved. I remember I didn't like the costume.. it was plain compared to all the rest of the teams.I went to visit the fairgrounds in 2005 and couldn't believe how the surrounding area had changed. When I was there in the 70s, it was open field hills surrounding. In 05 there were houses all around. It didn't feel the same. If you want memories that last a lifetime, the Westernaires will give that to you.

they don’t teach any actual horsemanship and they completely disregard the horses’ well-being; the “riding” that they teach is just heals down, hold on, and hope for the best. not a good organization, i definitely don’t support it.
