Heres what is happening at the farm...

Board and Lease Payments
Board is due on the rst of the month, and no later than the 1st Saturday of the month. Please dont be late, I have bills too - most of which are related to your horses well being; hay, power, water, etc. $250 plus GST ($262.50) for horses owned and ridden by adults. $250 (no GST) for horses ridden by youth (according to our accountant)! Lease payments are due 1st of each month as well. (Same as boarders.)

Horse Health Vaccination Time

This month vaccinations are due. Horses should receive their 5 way vaccination this month. These will protect your horse against West Nile Virus, tetanus, as well as 3 other horse related illnesses. This vaccine is available from Moos Jaw Animal Clinic. Just ask for a ve way for horses. I will administer them for you. We will also be worming horses this month. Please talk to me so we can do all the horses in the same pen at the same time, to eliminate recontamination.

May Long Weekend Clean Up!

We will be doing a lot of clean up this weekend. If you or your child has extra time or energy, we always appreciate the help.

Quarter Horse Show

Several of our senior girls are volunteering with this show. Not only will they learn lots, they will also be a big help to the show. We are proud of our girls: Sam, Hanna, Karen, Courtney, Kyra and Christina!
