To clarify, Mike is not a girl 🤣! I Keri, ran lessons tonight! Now that’s cleared up I wanted to mention and share this!

I was thrilled to witness one of the girls excelling in two different areas: running her horse and public speaking. She showcased her athletic abilities by displaying impressive control on her horse that, well can be difficult. during a run, and later on, she demonstrated great communication to the other students in a new reversed barrel pattern.
Well done Izzy!

Leah helped the less confident riders on the ground!

‼️STOP AND READ😉‼️‼️✨. Today, we had our first team meeting! Some in person and some via zoom! Lakeside is super excited to be entering this stage with its students! Congratulations on having our first team meeting! Team meetings can set the tone for how a team functions and communicates, so it's great that you took this important step. During the team meeting, it's important to establish clear goals and expectations for the team. ✨. This can include discussing the team's purpose, defining individual roles and responsibilities, and establishing communication protocols. ✨. Additionally, team meetings can also be a great opportunity to build relationships and establish trust among team members. We will schedule regular team meetings and practice to ensure that everyone stays on the same page and that the team is making progress towards its goals and individual goals. ✨. Remember to always listen to each other, be respectful of each other's opinions, and work together towards the team's success! What’s everyone’s takeaway from today’s team meet?
Lessons are on tonight! Please be careful driving on the gravel road towards the barn! Lots of slushy icy snow.
Good Morning Everyone!

‼️Our Top Tips for Livestock‼️
✨
Water: Animlas need access to fresh, unfrozen water at all times. Check water sources frequently to ensure they haven’t frozen over, and consider using heated buckets or tank heaters to prevent the water from freezing.
✨
Feed: Animals may need extra calories to stay warm in cold weather, so make sure they have access to plenty of high-quality hay or other forage. Consider increasing their grain ration if necessary, but be careful not to overfeed.
✨
Shelter: Animals need access to a shelter or windbreak to protect them from the elements. Check that their shelter is in good condition and free from drafts, and consider adding extra bedding to keep them warm.
✨
Blankets: Depending on the horse’s coat and body condition, a blanket may be necessary to help keep them warm. Check blankets regularly to make sure they’re not rubbing or causing any discomfort.
✨
Horses : Cold weather can cause hooves to become brittle and more prone to cracking. Make sure your horse’s hooves are properly trimmed and consider using hoof oil or other products to help keep them moisturized.
✨
Exercise: Horses still need regular exercise, even in cold weather. However, be careful not to overwork them, as they may be more prone to injury in cold conditions.
✨
Stay warm 🙌🏻
