It is with great sadness that we share with you our loving Peter Pan crossed over the rainbow bridge early Monday morning. Petey has been a part of our Elvenstar family 16+ years and was not only a staple in our program, but has brought along thousands of riders. In honor of his memory, flowers and pictures will be placed in his stall for the next few days.

Rest easy Peter Pan 💔
