THE EQUESTRIAN CENTER UPDATE A NOTE FROM SAMANTHA LESTER, THE EQUESTRIAN CENTER MANAGER We hope all of you are having a wonderful and fun summer. From the trail rides and horse camps, to the barn bingo's and lessons, this barn has not slowed down one bit this summer and my barn staff and I are loving every minute of it. This summer has been one of the busiest that I can remember and the barn hasn't seen this much horse activity in really long time. All of the Horse Camps have been successful and there have been great turnouts at every event. I want to thank each and every one of our members, their families and guests for supporting the equestrian center. I would also like to thank the country club and their staff for helping with the events at the barn. All of you do a great job. All of the horses are doing well and have enjoyed all of the visits and treats they have received. Both of the pigs are also doing well. As the riding season comes to an end, the barn will still be open daily for ring rides, lessons and trail rides. Stall and pasture board is also available. If you would like any additional information about rides, boarding or the barn in general, please call or email me. The barn is open for those who would like to come visit and bring treats as well. Apples and carrots are a favorite for the horses and the pigs love popcorn.
