I bought mine, have you bought yours?

Show your support and help raise funds for the school horses of Ontario. All proceeds from the sale of these hats will be donated to our Lesson Facilities.

This information (science based) demonstrates how long school horses need to resume a full schedule of lessoning (if they have been completely out of any exercise regime). We must always put the comfort and welfare of the horse before our own needs. Given this, it would be great to see our provincial and federal governments and their respective agencies consider the on-going economic impact to the schooling barns/programmes knowing from this that they cannot just resume a 100% activity level (even with new policies in place for social distancing, safety etc) once lesson barns are able to provide a public service again. These businesses will have a much longer road to economic recovery compared to your golf courses and community in-door or outdoor recreational facilities.

Now is a great time for some reflection and mental preparation...

Question: My show season is cancelled indefinitely. What can I do at home now to work on my mental game, so I come out swinging like Beezie Madden circa 2014 WEG when the shows start up again?
