Silver Lining Equestrian Center

Silver Lining Equestrian Center Horse boarding and training facility to match each individual horse owner’s needs. Silver Lining is a facility designed for full boarding and lessons.

We have a great lesson program for riders of all ages and experience levels! Children can start lessons as early as 5 years old. We also have a fun group of adult riders! Our riders have the opportunity to lesson on their own horse or one of our wonderful lesson horses (all sizes and experience levels). We go to horse shows 1-2 weekends per month so that riders get the experience and fun of compet

ing and doing well in an environment that doesn't pressure families to travel every weekend. Silver Lining also offers Camps throughout the year.

Ella Dreaden appreciation post!
I have had some really amazing "right hands" in my 18 years at SLEC and Ella is no exception. She graduated from Auburn in December, having been at SLEC for several years as a boarder and collegiate competitor and then adding instructor to her resume last summer. Ella is now here full time and has stepped up to the plate in a way that makes the whole program thrive! She teaches a great lesson, does all of the training rides with Steph still out of the saddle for her knee, drives the big truck and trailer to shows and coaches everyone to be their best. She has also picked up a lot of horse care responsibilities. Having Ella on our team has been such a wonderful asset to our program and we are so thankful for her! We love you Ella!!!

Josie McVicar is the next rider that we have highlighted as the SLEC rider of the week! Josie is one of our freshmen, and she is majoring in Animal Sciences: Pre-Vet! While she has historically ridden and competed on a warm blood gelding named Tyler Road, she has recently made the switch over to a lease with Rockin N’ Ronin, who is definitely a familiar face around the barn. Between both horses, she has certainly had an eventing-filled year, where she has made some of her favorite 1st year memories! Keep working hard, Josie, and we are so happy to have you on the SLEC team! 💙🤍💙🧡

SLEC RIDER SPOTLIGHT: WEEK 14

This week’s highlighted rider happens to be one that is taking center stage not only on social media, but also at the Jumping Branch HT this weekend in her Preliminary move up! Miss Viktorija Petraitis is a junior at Auburn majoring in agriculture science. She and her precious mare, Fernhill Float On, have been a part of our team for just over a year and a half, and they never fail to impress us through every ride together. One of Viktorija’s favorite memories with “Finley” is their trip to Stableview in September for a horse trial, the same weekend that Hurricane Helene came through. It was a hectic few days but absolutely one for the books. Best of luck to you and Finley this weekend, Viktorija! Go rock those green flags!!!

Emma Suess is a name that everyone at the barn knows well. This sweet girl has put countless hours of blood, sweat, and tears into SLEC’s lesson program and her own riding journey as both a student trainer and an intercollegiate rider. We are so excited to see how she flourishes in the Spring of 2025 as she finishes her business degree in her hometown of Asheville, NC at App State. Barn members of all ages are going to miss you so dearly, Emma. We love you, and sincerely appreciate your years of dedication to the young riders and community of the SLEC family. We know you are going to do so well and you will ALWAYS have a home with us!!

Ella Dreaden has had an incredible last couple of weeks with some MASSIVE life updates. On Saturday, December 14th, Ella not only graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Agricultural Science, but also got ENGAGED to ! Luckily for us, Ella will be staying in Auburn, where she will be leading the SLEC lesson program! We are pumped to have her as such a big part of our team for the busiest time of the year. Congratulations, Ella, and let’s rock the spring together!

Ashley Costello, one of our stellar sophomore riders, also has a big spring upcoming! She will be joining the team with our close friend, Shannon Riley! As a dedicated working student with Shannon’s coaching, she and Bo are sure to become the best versions of themselves in the show ring. We are going to miss you this semester, Ashley, but we are looking forward to seeing you around Area III over the next few months and hearing about all of your fun adventures!

It’s been a few weeks since the last rider highlight, but I saved this one as the start of Christmas week, where we will be celebrating some of our girls that have accomplished some amazing milestones recently, and those that have such exciting plans in the spring!

To kick off the saga, we are spotlighting Miss AK Waller! AK is a senior majoring in psychology with a minor in Human Development and Family Sciences that we have been so fortunate to get to know better over the last year. She does not currently own a horse, but she has worked with two fantastic OTTB’s during her career as a student and Auburn Eventing member, Chase Your Dreams, of whom she placed 7th in the BNR at the 2021 AEC, and Rock the Causeway (both pictured). AK graduates in May, but until then, she will be living the dream in Orlando, working as a part of the Disney College Program! We are going to miss this girl so dearly, but her contagious radiant energy is sure to take her far in the Magic Kingdom. We are so excited to see all the amazing things you do, AK! 💙🤍
