We have a Special Olympics equestrian team and offer English and Western riding lessons. Students have the opportunity to compete in local horse shows on a monthly basis.

It’s our instructor Tatem’s final 4-H show, so we want to send her out in style!

From Tatem’s mom:

“Joe and I are setting up a Friends of Tatem Johnson Fund. Anyone interested in supporting Tatem’s final Fair project, a hefty Dorper whether named Eeyore, can donate to the Fund, and all monies raised will be used to purchase her lamb at the Maricopa County Fair on Saturday April 12th. If we can get enough Friends to participate with $50 donations to the Fund, we can have one of those bleacher-stomping crowd-cheering memorable Auction Moments that sends the showman out of the ring in tears.

If we win the lamb, which I’m hoping we will, one lucky Friend of the Fund will be randomly selected to receive the lamb, after it has been custom processed by Thrush’s Processing of course.

If you think that you might want to participate in the Fund, please reach out to Joseph Johnson or myself. We only have until Fri April 11th to pull this together, and I’m excited that we’ve already had such a great response.”

If you want to participate, you can:

🍀 cash or check at the barn (made out to Tracie Johnson)
🍀 zelle to 623-363-9202 (please specify it’s for Tatem
🍀 Venmo to -Girard-6 (ditto)

We would love to show Tatem how much we appreciate her and all of her hard work!

Summer camp with our favorite judge Megan Bennett? Yes, please! These camps are designed for all levels of riders so even if your child is a total beginner, they are welcome to attend. Maybe your child takes lessons but their best friend doesn’t - they can both have an amazing week filled with horses at this camp! Megan has so much experience that it’s easy for her to be flexible. Text her with any questions or to sign up!

Spring Break Camp - March 13, 14, and 15, 9-11am

Limit four students, ages 8+, $200

Current or new students are invited to join our Mindful Horsemanship camp! We will focus on fostering a connection with our horse while working on our horsemanship skills. There will be some riding, but the emphasis will be on enriching our relationship with our horses through non-riding activities .

How can we make grooming extra enjoyable for our horses? Could you lead your horse through an obstacle course without touching them? Let’s learn!
