Snaffles. Looking for affordable lessons for you and/or your horse? Ian has lots of experience in a variety of diciplines and has been working with my young ones and stallion. He is doing a great job with them and with my personal lessons. http://www.snaffles.ca/2301.html
Vintage Riders Equestrian Club: guest speakers, group clinics, BBQ's, with less importance placed on competition and more emphasis on fun. Members are 21+ and all levels are welcome. www.vintage-equestrian.ca
If you are going to take a course in Olds, I would also recommend without hesitation, accomodations at Auberge Brown B&B. Linda and Peter are wonderful hosts, making you feel comfortable and welcome. The breakfast menu is amazing. http://www.bbcanada.com/aubergebrownbb
