LifeProof Performance Horses

03/05/2024

Details are all set, and we cannot wait to present this new event to everyone in central Illinois!

All events will be in the Livestock Center and one of the 25 Barn Series. Signage will be up at the event to help direct everyone to the appropriate locations.

Our Tack Sale is open to anyone wanting to come and try to sell some horse related goods! We will not be charging any fees this year, so just let us know you are planning to come! Used and new tack and other equestrian related items are welcome! If you have something else you'd like to sell, please reach out to us. I'm sure we can work it out!

Microchipping will be $45 directly to the vet, Dr. Kate Luthin. We currently have TWO saddle fitting slots available with a $20 participation fee. UPDATE AS OF 3/6 - All saddle fittings slots are FULL. That session will actually begin at 10am.

Stalls are available for $50 each. They will be available from Friday evening until 10 pm on Saturday. No exceptions on those times!

Other demos will be held during the day. Be sure to check this page, as well as to check out schedule the day of the event!

Please contact us at [email protected] if you are interested in setting up in the tack sale or would like to bring a horse for microchipping.

Stonehaven stables will be back taking client horses January 1 2024!

Great time to get colts started for the spring riding season, show horses tuned up, get the dust out of your trail horses bones, or get those babies ready for the real world!

⚡️colt starting⚡️
Ride em like their broke mentality! Good horses start with a great foundation. Lots of prep and ground work. I focus on creating comfortable, willing, forward partners from the beginning. 60 days required in most situations

⚡️finishing⚡️
Got a good broke horse that just needs that one thing finished? Lead changes, cleaning up knees over jumps, spins, cleaner neck reining, some tricks like lay down and bow and fist bump,etc! Doesn’t matter if it’s a first time in sliders or studs we can finish out and perfect your horses movements!

⚡️show prep⚡️
Fitting for halter (stock and society),finishing on horsemanship or showmanship patterns, top line development, conditioning for overnight or weekend or longer shows. Manes pulled, tails put up, clipping. Anything to give you the winning edge!

⚡️cattle work⚡️
New to StoneHaven! Young horses can learn to push and box cows, turn and track them. Have a rope thrown off them, head, heel, or breakaway.

Happy Wednesday! We wanted to give you a Grounds Committee Update! Spring is right around the corner & the PRC Volunteers will be hard at work. We will post general clean-up events as we have them set. The Clubhouse will also be de-winterized soon for upcoming meetings & other Spring Events.

We realized we can't have GREAT shows without GREAT ground and that includes both arenas! A couple things to note:
🟢 Water holes in the Speed Arena will be addressed.
🟢 Hard pan/depth will be managed in both
🟢 Arenas will be watered properly as needed.
🟢 Reveal 4 in 1 Drag will be fixed properly
🟢 Tractor serviced & ready to go

These are just a few items that the Board & Grounds Committee has in the works. As soon as the weather breaks we will get to work! 💪
