Leasing at the WRR: Letter to New and Renewing Lessees

By pressing the hyperlinked items you will find information and forms to complete for your new or renewing lease.

• Read the enclosed copy of WRR’s Leasing Policies.  Please be sure to note the section on riding other WRR horses.  You should always plan to ride your leased horse if it is available and rideable.  This has always been our policy.  You may ride other WRR horses in lessons or at an additional cost for other activities (except JETs and Drill Team).  If you are half leasing, carefully read the sections on the difference between a half and full lease and what to do if your half share lessee quits leasing.

• Complete the Name, Address, E-mail address, and Phone Number sections of the enclosed leasing contract.  Be sure to read the contract completely then sign and date it.

• Read the pink liability release and complete all sections.

• Read and sign both sides of the long blue sheet (Horse Usage Agreement and Stable Agreement).

• If you are half leasing and you haven’t already, please contact the other half lessee to discuss riding plans and complete the WRR Co-Lessee Riding Plan form (optional).

  Return the following to us at least 30 days prior to the renewal date of the lease: 

• Completed original of the leasing contract.  One copy is for your records.

• Pink liability release form.

• Long blue Horse Usage and Stable Agreement form.

Many of our customers find interacting with our horses to be a pleasant and relaxing change from stressful, hectic schedules.  To help us maintain this positive environment, please do not burden other customers with issues that should be brought to our attention.  Bring your concerns or suggestions for improvement directly to us.  We cannot take positive action to resolve problems unless we know about them.

If, at some point, you decide to purchase a horse of your own, we will whole-heartedly support that decision.  We will be happy to provide you with the information and training you need to achieve that goal.  Although we hate to lose good customers, you will be able to count on us for helpful advice and encouragement in your transition from leasing to horse ownership.

When you decide to cancel your lease, kindly give us at least 60 days notice.  In addition, please refrain from encouraging any other rider to take up the lease.  That practice, no matter how well intended, has caused disappointment in the past.  We assign riders on the basis of waiting list seniority, horse suitability and co-lessee compatibility and not according to the previous lessee’s preference.
