Huge thanks to everyone who came out for Clean Up Day at Courtesy Stable today!

We tackled the garden areas with some much-needed weeding, spruced up the inside of the barn, and got everything looking fresh for spring. Your time, energy, and love for this place mean the world to us (and the horses!).

Check out some photos from today’s hard work—our barn shines a little brighter thanks to you all!

Ladies & gentlemen, friends neighbors & horsemen, lend me your ears. OUR WATER IS FLOWING!!! There is still lots to do, Councilman Jones office agreed to help fund the replacement of new underground pipes, to avoid the freezing in the future. We are in the process of submitting a grant application to redo the mares turnout, to help raise the frost line when the new pipes are installed. We hope to have all of this completed sometime this year, so as to avoid any additional freezing again next year... We need your support, this time financially. Any amount you can give can be donated by check or through our website. We are hoping to raise at least $5k as a match to our funds, in addition to the funding from the SRRF grant.
For now, the immediate "no water" situation is resolved, the temps are above 32. We will advise if & when the water situation becomes critical again & ask for more dropoffs but for now, you can rest easy, the horses have water & are doing well. Please watch for the date of our open house to stop by for a visit soon.
Thank you so much! Cynthia & the courtesy crew & horses!
