Corona measures at Training Stable de Hoeve.

In the fight against the Corona virus, we also want to take the necessary measures at Training Stable de Hoeve:
  • ONLY THE OWNERS / RIDERS / CAREERS of the horses are allowed to groom / ride their horse etc. The horses obviously need all their necessary care.
  • Do not take children to the stable.
  • Do not bring extra visitors to the stable.
  • Keep the visit to the stable as short as possible and if a visit is not necessary, please postpone.
  • The basic hygiene measures also apply in the stable, namely washing hands with soap, coughing and sneezing in the elbow and avoiding close contact.
  • Stay at home with cold or flu complaints. If in doubt, ask someone else to do your horse. Everyone will be willing to do their bit.
  • The group lessons will not continue until April 6.
  • The bar will be closed until April 6. The canteen will be open as long as this is permitted, including the drinks, candy and change machine.
  • Use these measures wisely, it will not benefit anyone if far-reaching steps have to be taken when someone is found to be infected.

We hope for your understanding and hope that over time everything will go back to normal. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact Patrick or Sylvia.
