Just want to say Happy Birthday to this hunk of love. Turner I can’t believe you’re 30 today. From a prelim eventer to a lesson horse and everywhere in between. Not to shabby for an old guy.

For your consideration: Safire, 10 year old Appaloosa mare, 14.3 hands (takes up leg though!)

Has been used in our lesson program but prefers her own person. Goes Western and English, LOVES to jump.

Has done a Mountain Trail Clinic (2021), at-home Fun Show (2022), Jumper Show (Starter, Stone Gate Farm 2023), Combined Test (Very Green, Chagrin Valley Farms 2023), and a Mini Trial (Starter, Stone Gate Farm 2023), and has taken everything in stride with green riders in the irons, despite herself still being somewhat green.

Her perfect person would be a young rider or adult amateur who can take a joke, under the guidance of a trainer, to continue to grow together.

PM for price and more info.

As I mentioned lots of exciting things. I forgot to add this. Everyone say hello to Capri! And thank you Last Chance Corral and Jaquline for helping Miss Capri have a soft landing with us here at CLF. Here she is in her first outing with Jen Winerqnd then in her first lesson.

Wow what a day! Great outing Stone Gate Farm. What a great leading experience for everyone. Some scores might not reflect the accomplishments that were made but they were big steps. Calla and Samson went around their first Very Green and finished on their dressage score to win!!! Rylee Robin Boyd took Safire to her first full mini. Though there is a letter at the end she did jump around all the things (maybe we need to brush up on the rules), Sadie Funtash and Ian went around the Beginner Novice with a much better dressage test and jumping all the things, Miss Laura Stepic and Obie had a great Beginner Novice round winning their division. I was able to go around the Novice with Mr. Tee. It has been quite a while since we were able to do that. Between my injury and getting him healthy again it has been a hot minute. Next time we will Iron out the blips. Thanks everyone, both at home and at the show for a great day. Couldn’t do it without all of you. It takes a village!!! .

SO many exciting things happening. This is one of them. Welcome Miss Libby! So I excited to have you come join the lesson program. She decided she didn’t want to cooperate with picture taking this morning. Thank you Jacqueline Nadler for helping us have this lovely lady join our crazy family.

AIRTIME!!!!! Woo hoo!

What a great day at Chagrin Valley Farms. Had a lot of firsts today and they all went GREAT! Ellie and Samson did an intro CT and ended up 4th on their Dreasage score, Rylee and Safire did a very green CT and WON!!! RIley and Ernest the wonder pony did their first outdoor dressage and were 2nd and 7th (unfortunately NO ribbons for dressage only - but we know how awesome they were!) and Miss Bella and Calla tagged along for Bella’s first trip off the farm since coming off the track and she was a rockstar learning the ropes of hanging out at the show. Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen and we are looking forward for the next one!!!

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION:

2011 Hanoverian/TB Chestnut Mare. Approximately 17hh tall.

Sire: LA Express
Dam: Unknown, by Sunny’s Halo

“Rory” is in search of a person to call her own that has time and patience to teach her the ropes further. She is green, but has been started over fences and is willing to learn. Needs a more advanced rider, as she is not yet confident in herself.

This mare would be perfect for a Jr/Yr, AA, or Professional looking for a project with potential.

Contact Noell Sivertsen at (440) 376-2117 to inquire.

This is a very interesting article. There are some very highly rated helmets that are not expensive at all. It proves that the more you spend doesn’t always mean it’s better.

We concluded November here at CLF with our second Futures Academy session 💪🏻🐴

Students learned all about rider gear and proper attire in their theory session, then helped setting up the pattern of the day, which was a grid this time, tacked up and rode 💙

We had some spicy ponies due to the storm and drop in temperatures ❄️ but everyone learned something! Especially about the importance of sitting up 🙌🏻

WOW! What a great afternoon! We had a little bit of desensitization training. Thank you Taya Workum-Byers for letting us use all your toys. Here is a quick picture dump of some of the ponies playing. We even got the little ones out. Both less than 6 months and they are doing it! (Anyone interested in an amazing baby let me know)

Our first annual CLF Games was a success!

We hosted a fun show for our students and boarders so that they could get a taste of what 'real' horse showing is like! Everyone had a blast!

We had a various classes such as: mini trial, dressage tests, group hunt seat/pleasure riding, in-hand, egg and spoon, and carrot races!

Thank you to our volunteers for helping us keep the day running smoothly!
