In a Nutshell

Instructor with 25 years of experience distinguishes subtleties of English and Western riding styles in class with three to five pupils

The Fine Print

Horses symbolize a wild, uncontrollable spirit, which is why rebellious teenagers sport mane-like mohawks and eat even the cores of their apples. Take the reins with this Groupon.

Choose from Three Options

  • $29 for two semiprivate horseback-riding lessons (a $70 value)
  • $49 for four semiprivate horseback-riding lessons (a $140 value)
  • $59 for six semiprivate horseback-riding lessons (a $210 value)

Pebble Creek Farm provides the horse for the lessons, but clients are welcome to trailer in their own horse if desired.

Pebble Creek Farm

Kim Rice, head riding instructor and trainer at Pebble Creek Farm, brings a background in education and more than 25 years of experience with horses to her lessons. Her 14-acre tract on the outskirts of Newark befits an instructor of her prestige, with facilities that include a sand riding ring with lights and easy access to hundreds of miles of trails and fields via Fair Hill Nature Center, located just across the street. Her instruction focuses on English and Western riding styles, which differ in equipment and technique but are both influenced by The Beatles.

The Groupon Guide to: Pilgrim Rhymes

Most schoolchildren learn about the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony from a series of mnemonic rhymes. Here's a look at how well these couplets hold up to historical scrutiny:

The Rhyme: They hunted turkey for work-y/And for chuckles they ate their own buckles.
True or False? While it is true that most of the Pilgrims were employed by the Dutch East India Company as turkey trappers, there is little historical evidence to suggest that the Pilgrims ate their own buckles for fun—it's more likely they ate the buckles for their high iron content.

The Rhyme: Seeking freedom of thought/On the Mayflower they fought/Millions and millions of mermen.
True or False? The Pilgrims were actually already free to practice their religion at their settlement in Holland, and their reason for coming to America had more to do with cultural identity than freedom to worship. Also, the mermen are thought to be apocryphal.

The Rhyme: If you fall asleep covered in mud/The Pilgrims appear to eat all your blood.
True or False? Every mother warns her children that if they refuse to take their bath, a vengeful band of Pilgrims will materialize to extract a terrifying revenge. This is true, but you can also trigger the appearance of the bloodthirsty Pilgrims simply by reading the word "Pilgrim" nine times in the course of a day.

Was the Mayflower attacked by mermen?
