Fun Fall Show

Sunday October 16th we will be having a fun fall show with the kids.  3 - 5 p.m. we will gather at the Stable.  3-4 will be a show, all the kids who can come will be riding and showing what they have been learning. There will be the baton race, egg and spoon, turning in a box, and the two that have ridden the longest will show the younger ones what they can look forward to with loping their horses.  Pictures will follow. All the kids will get t-shirts too this year and we are excited about having them all together.

State Horse Show in St. Paul

Baihley at the State Horse Show getting ready for Showmanship with Toby.

Placed second in the State in Western Pleasure Class.  She has worked hard at training Toby and it paid off!

Katie came up to watch and enjoy the special moment!!!!

English- well it isn't his best.... yet. He did his beautiful Western Pleasure lope and refused to speed up.  She will work with him on that this winter. She had only ridden him English in 3 shows so he looked beautiful just went a bit slower than what she will develope him into.  We had a great time.... absolutely great.

New Private Lesson Schedule

This spring and summer we will be having no lessonso n Monday so we are beginning to phase that in this week.

Private Lessons times May 9, 2011 are as follows
Tuesday 4-6 private lessons
Wednesday 3:30-4:30 private lessons
Thursday 3:30-5:30 private lessons
Friday 3:30-4:30 private lessons

Private lessons usually are in the indoor arena and no other riding is allowed during a private lesson. If the weather is wonderful, additional riding can be in the outdoor and private lessons are not bothered. Private lessons may choose to come and ride in the outdoor but that doesn't affect others riding in the outdoor arena since it's a nice large area. 
This is Elizabeth riding BFG (Big Friendly Giant) the new lesson horse. He loves little girls. 

Thursday night will be family night at the farm.  After 6:00 p.m. we will be welcoming families to come out for additional riding time, supervisesed in the outdoor arena for games, fun stuff and fellowship around the campfire, on the swingset or just enjoying the country air.  Kids will be more than welcome to ride, family can ride also if they have their waiver signed. When it's dusk we will light the fire and enjoy s'mores, hot dogs and pizza pockets.
