Where can I find a job with horses in Colorado Springs?
So, I wanted to get a job (I'm 15 but will be 16 in March) and I think it would be fun to work with horses. (I honestly don't have much experience. I wanted to take riding lessons but we're really tight on money right now. I thought if I helped in a stable it would be a lot of fun and I could learn a lot. Of course I don't think there are many people willing to hire someone in my situation...) But I honestly have no idea where to look... my Mom said it would have to be somewhere close to where we live (Black Forest would be good, or somewhere around there) so that she would be able to drive me since I don't have my license yet. Haha, I'm not expecting many answers... but any help would be great. (Also, how do I pick my favorite answer? Wow I feel really stupid... lol)

Try volunteering. Many barns do not hire many people. Maybe one or two if they are high class. I volunteered all of the time, it was really rewarding. And that's where I learnt a lot of tips and tricks. I loved it and I'm sure you would too, if all you really want is to be around horses and learn the trade. In some cases you can work for lessons. It all depends on the barn. If money is what you're after as well as horses, apply for a job at your local tack shop. http://www.pongoresume.com/ That is a great resume builder and is easy to work. Fill it out best you can. Really try and go for volunteering or for the job. Volunteering is your best bet. It's great experience and looks good on a resume too. :] Good luck.

i live in illinois , and i was in the same situation as you ! I went to google and typed in "horse stables near "(put in your zip code)" " then i emailed or called the nearest stables from me and asked them if i could work in their barn (grooming, mucking, feeding, lunging etc.) for lessons or a shareboard (also knowledge) ! surprisingly i got a couple responses , some require more experience, some dont care. a lot of barns are tight in money now, so instead of paying they will exchange for a horse lease or lessons. in my opinion, thats better than money ! plus you learn a lot . i find that the smaller, more private barns are friendlier and you learn a lot more. but just be careful if your inexperienced and riding (my first barn didnt teach me much about riding and fell off about 3 times during trail riding , i blame it on myself though , i know i couldve gotten seriously injured) so seriously be careful and goodluck !
