Once a month we gather students to complete a task and then ride together. These Saturdays are for building responsibility, work ethic, and barn friendships. Thank you to these awesome kids for waking up early this morning in the cold!

I know it’s not the news we wanted to have to deliver but I am incredibly thankful for everyone who jumped in and did what needed to be done. God is still good even on the worst days. And we’re gonna get through this.

🔹BARN ANNOUNCEMENT🔹
We are switching our turn out schedules this week to daytime! We are going to try to keep our horses out as much as possible between 7 am and 7 pm. Lesson students will need to be prepared to grab their assigned horse from the pasture and possibly return them after their lesson.

Another special day! 🩵 Hannah started riding with us this Summer and today she became a first time owner. Merlin is going to be the best partner and so spoiled. Love at first sight! Big thanks to Morgan Gudorf for reaching out to let us know Merlin was available so we could sn**ch him up!

Our new arena is OPEN! Anna got to be the first rider to put hoof prints in the sand.

We saw a need for a 3rd arena with the increase in lessons and boarders. We’re so thankful for all of our staff, clients, and horses! 🩵

Welcome home “Whiskey” all the way from Czechoslovakia! We can’t wait to see everything you two accomplish.

“Red” is here to stay! He’s gonna spend the rest of his days loved, spoiled, and being ridden around by his favorite girl.

🐴WAITLIST UPDATE🐴
With the huge amount of lesson inquiries over the past two weeks, our waitlist is currently 17 students deep. We are diligently working our way down the waitlist as we have openings. As a reminder, our lesson program requires a weekly commitment. Horses are leased on a first come, first serve basis, and must be in our weekly lesson program. Once you are offered a day & time for lessons, we will only hold that spot for 24 hours before moving down the list. We do have a plan to increase our capacity (both in lesson horses & instructors) beginning in October. If you have sent in an inquiry, please be patient with us while we work through the list and schedule challenges. We are working hard to create space for everyone but are not willing to overwhelm our instructors or overwork our horses. We appreciate your grace and patience!

INTRODUCING OUR STEP UP PROGRAM!

Ready to purchase your first horse? We have designed a "step-up" program to assist in buying, training, teaching, and showing. Our staff has experience in finding the right horse within budget for you and/or your student. We assess the rider's abilities and listen to your goals. We then act as an agent and begin searching for the right horse, with the skills that align with your needs. We have the capability to "shop" locally, regionally, and even internationally. Shopping for the perfect partner can be stressful. We will guide you through the process, assisting in pre-purchase exams, trial rides, and arranging transportation. Our staff will use our contacts and knowledge to help you confidently purchase your horse and bring them home to Lakeside!
