The love of horses and horseback riding has no age limit…
Miss Maxine is 82 and spent this gorgeous fall afternoon with Walker in the sunshine 🧡💛❤️

Can y'all believe that September is nearly over?!! It's WILD!
October lesson schedule is posted. I know the first few weeks are weird- Congress has us a bit messed up and Kelsie is out of town for a weekend so I posted all I can. If you absolutely cannot find a thing that works, text me and we will work it out!

Nov-Feb will look a lot different as far as scheduling. If you want to talk about leasing, Walker/Termite/Skip/Luci will all be available to lease for those months. Lessons will be more condensed over the winter so if you have big goals to work on or you want a small taste of horse ownership, I highly suggest a lease.

Here is the booking link!

🎉 MISS KATE’S BIRTHDAY FORCED FAMILY FUN & MANUAL LABOR EXTRAVAGANZA 🎉

This year for my birthday, I want your PRESENCE, not your PRESENTS.

And by presence, I mean… I want your free labor. 😂

📅 September 19
⏰ 2–6 PM
📍 The Barn at Joy Creek

Bring your parents. Bring your friends. Bring your work gloves. Bring that one family member who owes you a favor. 😂

I have projects. I have chores. I have absolutely no shame about exploiting my birthday for cheap labor.

We’ll work. We’ll laugh. Someone will probably get yelled at for dumping the p**p wagon wrong.

Then we’ll eat FOOD & CAKE because apparently that makes this a birthday party and not a work camp. 🎂

No gifts. Seriously. Four hours of manual labor is plenty. 😈🤠

The Barn will be closed today (Monday 9/7) and all lessons are cancelled. We will be in touch to reschedule.
Boarders- please call Kate before you come.

September Schedule is posted!

I had to make some changes due to some folks graduating to the next level and to make the "back to school" routine make sense.

There are Saturday mornings open for September. I am going to try it and see how it goes.

Kelsie and potentially Ann will be helping me when I am traveling so there's a chance you'll get to hear some other opinions on your riding. It's a fantastic way to learn!

Looking ahead to the winter time- we will potentially have big changes so if you are interested in a lease for the winter, please let me know.

For group lessons- The number that's able to be booked only applies if you don't own your horse. If you bring your horse to the lesson, you can get in any group lesson posted. If it shows full, just text me. I only have 3 WTC horses so I have to limit bookings on my horses.

Use this link to schedule.

**Please try to book for the whole month if possible. This helps me keep on track and ensure everyone is getting my time!

Slim says- for the sanity of my owner…

Be responsible for yourself.

Brush your horse.
Clean your tack. PUT IT AWAY!
If your horse p**ps in the aisle, clean it up.
And for the love of God, PUT YOUR BELONGINGS AWAY.

This isn’t a hotel and I’m not your maid.

You ride here.
You spend your time here.
These horses and this facility give you a place to learn, grow and do what you love.

Have some pride in it. Take care of it. Leave it better than you found it.
