We all love to come and enjoy the horses but we do need to remember that they, as we, have minds of their own. When you bring your child for lessons, come on in an “sit a spell”, its fun to watch the kids as their confidence grows while riding these beautiful animals.

Feb 27th Change in Plans

Today's schedule is a little different since we have the farrier coming at 10. All riders from the older two classes are asked to come at 10 and help catch and hold horses for the farrier. The Pee Wee class will be at 12. Susan tried to get calls out to everyone, but I know that there is at least one family she hasn't managed to get a hold of. Sorry for the late entry of this post. Hope we caught all of you.

Tentatively Horse Share will be canceled for next week. All instructors will be out of town, including me. We had thought about taking all the girls to the Horse Expo on the 13th in Bozeman, but couldn't do this without the help of some parents driving. If any of you are interested in going and helping drive, please let me know.

Newest Plans for the Work Day

Our work day plans are finally set. We will be meeting at 9 am at the arena to do all the little chores that Susan is needing done. All kids able to come and be useful should bring their families and come help with the work. We would love to see all Horse Share families out to put in their hours as a thank you to all that Susan does to make this program possible. We will not be riding in the afternoon. So when the work is over, Saturday will be yours. See you then.

Work Day Revised

It seems we have some changes to the plans for the work day. Though I do not have a concrete time for you, it looks like we will have all those able to participate in a labor intensive work day come in the morning, and not have the students come at noon for a different work project. We will have to get back to you on the time, but plan on between 8-9 to come out and gets some work done in the morning, and then we will take a break from the normal schedule Saturday.

Also, March 13 there is a horse expo in Bozeman that we were thinking would be fun to go to as a group. There will be classes and demos to watch plus food and booths to look at that are all about horses. We will be trying to take a group from Horse Share that weekend to see expo, so keep that date in mind, and if any of you parents want to go and help getting everyone there, we would appreciate it.

Work Day

Well, I didn't get a lot of feed back on the work day, so I am going to set it myself. Our work day this month will be the third Saturday of the month. We have projects for both the big people and the students, so we will plan on the girls all coming at 12:00 pm to do some work and if there are any adults that can help with some manual labor, then we will put you to work as well. I will coordinate with Susan and let you know if the adult portion of our work day will be at a different time or not. But keep that date in mind.
Thanks

Work Day

If it works for everyone, we are looking at Feb 20th for work day for this month, so put it on your calender. Katy and Kirsten will be gone to another horse show that day, so it seemed like a good day to do our jobs instead. More details about time will be forth coming. Does anyone have a preference for time?
