HOPE Therapeutic Riding Center is currently taking registrations for therapeutic riding lessons for the 2012 spring quarter.

The registration deadline is Feb. 13 for current students, and Feb. 20 for new and returning students.

The program offers specially trained and certified instructors who know how to address the needs of people of all ages who are facing a broad range of special challenges that are physical, cognitive or emotional.

HOPE’s spring quarter will be held at both the north end location in Coupeville and the south end location in Langley. The quarter will run for eight weeks starting March 26.

Fees for spring quarter are $240. There is an additional $30 charge for new students to cover the new student assessment. A limited number of scholarships are available to pay for part of the fees for those students who meet financial criteria. Visit www.hope-whidbey.org for more information.
