Member Guidelines

The Lyme Trail Association (LTA) needs to put guidelines in place to manage the increasing number of Members and their Guests on property. 


Rider safety - All Riders must wear a safety helmet with a harness strap properly secured and with proper footwear. Safety vests are recommended if jumping.


Maximum Number of Guests per Member:  The maximum number of guests per member is 4 people.  Also, individuals are allowed on property as a Guest one time only.  If they are interested in coming back onto the property they must either join the LTA (visit our membership page) or pay the $25 Day Member Fee.  All Guests must sign Liability Waivers. Download here.


Parking:  There are days when capacity at Lord Creek Farm is reached. The primary indication of reaching capacity will be a full parking lot. Households should limit themselves to one vehicle when possible. All automobiles are asked to park parallel along the outside of the parking lot to leaving room for horse trailers. All Members must place their Parking Passes on their Dashboard.  Guest parking passes are available at the Kiosk in the LTA Parking Lot. We apologize in advance should the parking lot be full when you arrive. 


One more request: Please do not climb, sit or stand on stone walls. Children are included in this request.


Reminder:  Please display LTA identification when on property.  If you are a member and you need LTA identification or a Parking Pass please email us at info@lymetrailassociation.org.  If this is a replacement a $5 service fee will be charged.
