It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved horse, Bay. He helped so many students build their confidence and create memories. From gymkhanas, parades to birthday parties and rodeos, he did it all.

We will miss him dearly! Hope you’re enjoying the greener pastures! 🕊️

We are super excited to be remodeling our up top barn area! We have redone our stalls, added gravel, redoing the alley way, round pen and soon will be adding some hitching posts and an additional tack room.

We also are fencing our property next door so in the spring we will have some fun trail riding to add in and the horses will have a big pasture as well to munch on 🌾

Thank you sincerely to my husband for his endless hard work and spoiling our horse needs!

**We are still in construction so please still park down below at our round about**

I have this on repeat to students, you have to start somewhere. Concur the fear, put yourself out there and try! It’s only up from there!

PSA:

For lessons, please park down below on the round about - we just got gravel delivered up top and are redoing the upper level so there is not room to park up near the tack shed right now

Thank you in advance!

2 of our lesson horses Skip and Roany are getting to be Rodeo Queen horses at the California Finals Rodeo in Red Bluff, California the next few days for Miss Rodeo Ramona and Miss Rodeo California Lady in Waiting 2025!

Fun fact: both Skip and Roany used to be Rodeo Queen horses full time. They got to be in parades and rodeos. Where they carried flags, pushed cows through the arena and did queen waves. Sometimes even did school visits! 👑

We are getting excited for the new Loma Rica Christmas Parade on December 14th! 🎄

Any more students or parents want to participate with us? We have a few horses with riders already accounted for going and I got a banner made to be walked with us. Happy to do our truck and trailer if more want to join the fun! We will be also riding infront of the Gold Country Pro Rodeo Queens and float!

Final sign up to plan our float is this weekend. Thanks!

Today is a day that is very close to our hearts and one of our horse’s as well, Skip. Many of you know Skip and have gotten the chance to ride him but don’t know the story behind the old man.

Skip used to have one of the coolest jobs being a Rodeo Queen horse, even though he’s slow now he used to have the love for speed carrying his special cowgirl, Lilly Butler around the rodeo arena from carrying sponsor flags, queens runs and pushing cows. Sadly, 1 year ago today that special cowgirl left us too soon. We are thankful for her and her family for letting Skip be a part of our program and helping the next generation of riders learn how to ride. Lilly always rode with no fear, a smile on her face and always had fun. So next time you see Skip give him a hug and ride just like Lilly did.

🕊️💕
