November Newsletter





Hello and Happy Thanksgiving. There has been a lot going on in and around the barn this month! We have games on horseback for kids, developing your seat instruction for teens and up and much more!

Check in on Stryker and his progress with settling in to his new home.

We are now offering discount lesson packages! So many of you were asking for this, so we delivered! Read the details below.

Please call and set up a time to meet at the barn. I'd love to introduce you to my herd of amazing equines.

Have a safe and wonderful holiday with your loved ones.

Games on Horseback
Scottie-the one who started it all.
Have some pony fun time! Run through an obstacle course: pick up objects, drop them off somewhere else, go through a gate, cross logs, and oh, did I mention this is on the pony? Well, part of it. Sometimes you ride at a walk to the next obstacle where you might then dismount-on the wrong side! Then get back up, on the wrong side and trot to the next one! It's great for kids 6-12 they just love it. I will be incorporating this type of activity into the regular lesson program for kids.

Piero says, "Let's give it a whirl!"



Discount Lesson Packages are here!

The cost of each private one hour + lesson is $65.00. Now you have the option to purchase either 4 or 8 at a time.

The 4 lesson package costs $240.00 which is a savings of $20.00.

The 8 lesson package costs $475.00 which is a savings of $45.00!


As always, our website is full of valuable information.
Thank you to everyone who has been there and encouraged me along the way. Horse training was always my passion, but I'm not sure I would've been able to offer my services to others without your help/

Have a safe and pleasant holiday.
Sincerely,

Stryker
Stryker is our new 16.1hh Thoroughbred Cross gelding. He is approx. 15 years old. He is a very sweet guy, wants to please and knows his job. He was previously a 2' show hunter. Always honest to the jumps, great to learn on.
He has been in ground training here. He is learning that he may not use his (rather large) head to push us or point with. He is learning how to lead quietly and to stand still. Under saddle his manners are impeccable. View his photo slide show here.
