We will be using half the ring by the grandstands for the fun classes and any other horses can still be worked on the other end at the same time if owners do not want to play in the classes or if they need to warm up their horses.  Just enter the arena in between classes at the in gate and follow the rail to the back side of the arena please.  Thanks.
 
Come out and play with us.  It is free with your preentry to this horse open house!
 
The horses coming to this event are all fat, out-of-shape and usually furry so please bring them even if they are not perfect.  Thanks.
