We can’t let today pass without a Happy Birthday wish to our Fearless Leader, the one and only Carolyn Rice!

It’s been another trip around the pen, and more miles on the trailer, but we wouldn’t have it any other way! Cheers to even more next year, and great friends and clients to celebrate with!

Congratulations Parris Knight on a well earned and hard fought for achievement!

The smallest details often make the biggest difference.

These riders have turned polished equitation performances into the highest NSBA earnings in the class.
