WORKPLACE SAFETY and REOPENING STANDARDS FOR BUSINESSES PROVIDING OUTDOOR RECREATIONAL EXPERIENCES AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES

The governor’s office released guidance for the opening of stables on Monday the 25th –

The guidance can be found here:

*Note that stables and riding instruction are specifically listed, activities at stables must meet these guidelines.

DAR has indicated they will be providing additional guidance in the near future which will provide more detail on equine operations than are in the above mentioned document.

In the interim, stables may open on the 25th provided that they follow the guidance in the document below:

We will likely have another call once the clarifying guidance is provided.
