Happy holidays from North Star Farm! Thank you to all of the students and horses that have included me in their development this year- how lucky am I?!

The will be no lessons until January 7, 2025. Enjoy your winter break! ❄️

12/19/2024

The January/February/March schedule has been posted and is available for booking! The times listed under the ‘school horse’ schedule are for those riders not bringing their own horses. The schedule listed under my name is for students hauling in. I will be teaching in the morning on December 23 to accommodate riders wanting to get in one last ride before our winter break begins- let me know if you’d like to get on the list. Lessons resume on January 7th!

Wow, what a day! A huge thank you to all of the riders, families, judge, and volunteers who made our 1st schooling show a success! I’m so proud of the way everyone rode, and how fantastic the horses were. Hearing the cheers for each student as they finished a class, and watching new friends analyze their rides together was SO rewarding. I’m incredibly thankful to be have this wonderful community of people around me everyday. We’re going to catch our breaths over here, and the horses are going to have a few days out in the pasture. See you later this week!

Drop some show photos in the comments if you have them. I tend to only take pictures of my own kids 😂, but I’d love to see some great moments from yesterday

We’re getting excited for the big day tomorrow! Trailer parking will be alongside the barn. Anyone arriving without a trailer should park on the road or along the driveways next to the grass jumping arena. See you tomorrow!

The schedule has been made and ride times have been sent out for this weekend’s show. If you haven’t received anything, send me a message! 🤠

Today is the LAST day to get your name on the show list! If you haven’t written it down on the board in the barn (or asked me to write it down under the show sign up sheet), I don’t have it. Get those names and fees in!

09/05/2024

Friendly reminder that all riders need to be signed up and fees paid by September 9th to participate in the September 15th show!

Several students tested for and earned their rainbow ribbon last night! 👌

You can now register for our September 15th schooling show! Sign ups and a class list are located on the bulletin board at the barn, or message me here.

A little more information:

I’ll be working individually with each student to decide which classes are right for them. The show classes in the morning are for current students only. Adult riders- this show is for you too! Outside riders are welcome to join us on their own horses after lunch and participate in ridden games (pairs class, egg and spoon, relay, ride-a-buck, costume, ring race). All outside horses must have current vaccinations.

There will be ribbons and prizes up to 6th place! Casual dress is allowed, proper schooling show attire is encouraged (ask me if you need help with this!). Helmets and boots are required for all riders.

A leadline class will be offered free of charge to family members of current students. Please let me know if you have a child wanting to ride! There will also be a ‘bribe-a-horse’ class for nominated parents 😁.

Lunch will be potluck-style. I’ll assign everyone a type of dish based on last name and we can all share a barn family meal together!

The cost is $100 + gst ($105) for a full day of showing, or $50 + gst ($52.50) for a half day. This includes your class and show fee, coaching, as well as use of a horse if needed. All riders must be registered and pay their fees by September 9. Fees are nonrefundable.

A volunteer sign up is also on the bulletin board. Volunteers will make this day a success! There will be a variety of horsey and non horsey positions to fill.

These two are getting ready for their Pairs Class debut!

Biscuit and I had a blast breaking in the new cross country field (literally though, this pony can fly 🚀)!

We had a great night brushing up on some horsemanship skills! We played games, went over a lot of tack and horse body parts, learned a quick release knot, and ended the night with some fun in the arena playing horse tag. The barn is always better with friends!
