2011 Eventing Season is Well Under Way!

The year has definitely started out with a bang with lots of exciting things happening. One thing that I am excited about is the creation of the 42 Fleur De Lis Mini Trial series right here in Louisville. Right now the series consists of six mini trials with a year end awards banquet. These events are economical and a great way to introduce new horses and riders to eventing. For more information click here.

Another exciting thing that has happened this year is that some of the young horses are now competing at the Beginner Novice level: Fancee, Manchester and Big Glen are a few that have enthusiastically completed their first event.  I also have several horses and riders moving up to the next level including Sarah Busche and PJ, Lindsay Satterthwaite and Bella and Emma Burch and Winston. This year will prove to be an exciting competitive year!

On a side note I would like to encourage everyone at Stone Place to keep a close eye on ticks on yourself and your horse. We have had several horses have some issues. If your horse suddenly becomes ear shy or starts acting erratically they very well could be the cause. And just like with humans, ticks can pass on many diseases to the horse so best to get them taken care of asap.
