✨ We’re hitting the road! ✨

Equine Essentials at Narrow Gauge Farm is so excited to be heading to Swan Lake next week for two weeks for the St. Christopher’s & Blue Rock Classic! 🎉
We’re looking forward to two beautiful weeks in Pennsylvania and can’t wait to see so many new (and familiar!) faces. 🐴💙 Our trailer will be fully stocked and ready with all your must-haves (and plenty of wants 😉), so be sure to come find us ringside!

📍 BUT FIRST… we’re still at the Virginia Horse Center through Sunday this weekend!
Even if you’re not showing, stop by and check out all our new inventory—we’ve got so many fun goodies you won’t want to miss! 🛍️✨

See you this weekend in Lexington… and then in Pennsylvania! 🚛💨

Important Biosecurity Update – EHV-1/EHM Protocols

In response to the current EHV-1/EHM outbreak, and in consultation with our show veterinarian and state officials, we are implementing the following mandatory requirements to protect the health and safety of all horses on the property:

Entry Requirements
* Temperature log (twice daily) for 3 days prior to arrival. Temperature log must be MAINTAINED DAILY while your horse is on the property
* Health certificate dated within 3 days of arrival

Show-Specific Health Certificate Deadlines
* Local Show: Health certificate dated no earlier than Wednesday, April 29 + 3-day temp log
* Saint Chris: Health certificate dated no earlier than May 1 + 3-day temp log
* Blue Rock: Health certificate dated no earlier than May 8 + 3-day temp log

Horses attending both Saint Chris and Blue Rock do not need an additional health certificate — however, a new 3-day temperature log is required.

Biosecurity Guidelines (Strictly Enforced)
* Do not share tack or equipment
* Do not pet horses that are not your own
* Clean stalls daily
* Follow all standard biosecurity best practices
* If your horse develops a fever, notify the show veterinarian immediately.

There will be personnel at the entrance checking all documentation. Horses without proper paperwork will not be permitted on the grounds.

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in keeping our horses safe and our shows running smoothly.
