Hi Southern Maryland Equestrian Community,
I am writing because I am hoping you may be able to help me spread the word to interested instructors. We have a wonderful instructor who lives in France and has been coming back and forth to work with us through a visa program for the past 3 years. She was supposed to arrive in early June to run this year’s summer camp and summer lessons and potentially stay longer, however, we just found out that her visa has been denied. Obviously, we are disappointed that she can’t return and we are in a bind as summer is just around the corner!
I am looking for someone to fill her role as an instructor, as well as to take over some of the coordination/management of our Equestrian Program that runs year-round and provides general and therapeutic horsemanship instruction to riders of all ages with and without special needs. While this person does not need to have experience working with riders with special needs (although that would be ideal!), we do need someone with a great arena presence, a strong commitment to safety, and a real enthusiasm for working with all types of riders!
We have some flexibility with providing housing, hours, and salary. This position is currently seasonal (summer only), however there is potential for it to become a full-time position in the fall with the right person!
If you know of someone who may be interested, it would be really great if you could help me spread the word.
We are also always looking for additional riding instructors for our program!
Thanks very much, and I hope you all have a wonderful start to the summer!
