We had one of the scariest nights we’ve ever had working with horses tonight, and every horse persons worst nightmare- we had a fire on Breakwater Farm property. Luckily, the fire was contained to the office, and no animals or people were harmed. We are so incredibly thankful to all our first responders, firefighters, sheriffs, and the community who rallied to quickly to come to our aid. The fire could have been much worse had it not been for local youth who were driving by and notified us and the authorities- these young people were our heroes tonight. They ran to the barn with us with no hesitation, moved horses and goats, enlisted and called friends to help, and worked with giant farm animals they were unfamiliar with under some less than ideal circumstances- this takes some insane bravery. If you know these people, if you are these people, we have no words- thank you isn’t enough.
We’re going to cancel our lessons for tomorrow, Tuesday April 4th, to allow us to regroup. Feel free to be in touch with any questions.
Thank you again to our community, and those that came out to help. We appreciate you more than we can express.
