FLOODED ARENA = not us!
200ml later and loads of flooding, our arena is good to go at a level 6 danger risk.
Now we brace for the next 24 hours with a level 8 flood warning.

Ronnie Healy clinic day 1
Sunshine means lesson time. So great to see the sun and having a warmer day compared to last week.
Our arena is raked and rolled, ready to get serious again.
Its not always rainbows and unicorns. 🦄
We knew the big rains were coming this year due to the increased frequency and severity of rainfall over the past 3 years.
We made sure the stream was not blocked and water can flow freely towards the Berg River, our arenas were raked and drainage opened, all the drains around and inside the stables were clear and we were only keeping weekly concentrate stock on site.
We had to minamilise damage and that is exactly what we did. Besides the two bridges that were damaged due to the water the rest of our stable yard were unhindered.
Managing a yard is not all about today but thinking of the what ifs in the future.
Huge shoutout to Philip from Primix who has embraced my craziness and been delivering our food on a weekly basis

We have some very exciting news about trainers for September 😁
When ur big brother is a little bully😂
Arena maintenance day! In Paarl we have extreme winds which changes our arena sand every now and again.
Blowing at 30-60km/h the water evaporation rate is very high and the wind also disturbs the surface. Constant job!
Happy with the results.
When we can’t get to everything in one day we are lucky enough to have super grooms that can do fitness work 🐴
