On Sunday September 14, 2008 we will be in the Wo-Zha-Wa parade in Wisconsin Dells. We will be having a wagon pulled by our two ponies Fred and Barney.
November 22nd and 23rd, 2008 we will be at Antigua Bay in Wisconsin Dells. We will have a whole room full of new and used tack. We will also have lots and lots of home-made baked goodies of all different kinds, examples of what we'll have are home-made cheese-cake's (cherry, strawberry, raspberry, blueberry) cake, home-made pies (apple, butterscotch, coconut-cream, blueberry, raspberry-cream, chocolate, etc) seven-layer bars. The goodies will be cut and put in containers for individual pieces, so no need to worry, you will not have to buy a whole cake or pie! haha! We will also be having chili and bar-b-ques, chips, soda, water, and coffee to eat and drink. Coffee is free with a cash donation of what you are willing to give.
We are raffling off this saddle along with it bridle, breast collar, saddle pad (not pictured), and reins. You can purchase 6 tickets for $10.00. The drawing for the raffle with be November 23, 2008 at Antigua Bay (Best Western) in the Dells at the Cowboy's Christmas that is held there every year.

August 7, 2008 we will be at the Farmer's Market in Downtown Portage with a food booth. we were asked if we would be interested in doing this the first Thursday of every month and we said yes. We will be there from 2 p.m., to 8 p.m. At 5:00 p.m. there is live music provided (usually) so come on down and enjoy the entertainment along with brats, chips, soda, and dessert from us!
June 28, 2008 will be our horse show at W4368 Long Crossing Road, Rio, WI 53952 at Paradise Stables. in case you need to look it up on Yahoo maps. It starts at 9:00 a.m., so you will want to be there early to sign up for classes that you will be participating in. Each class is only $4.00 and again, all of the proceeds go to the animals that we get in for vet care. We are also having some new classes added this year as we are getting requests to have classes where the guardian or parent helps the child in the class, we feel it is only fair so this way the smaller children or one's that do not know how to ride all that well are able to get a trophy as well as children who are able to ride on their own. It will be tiny tot classes, the way it will work is the first tiny tot class will be for children who have a parent or guardian assist them, the next will be for tiny tots who are able to ride horses on their own. So to try to make it easier for everyone to understand, there will be 2 tiny tot classes of each! I find this very exciting and great for all the children who are just learning! We would also like to remind everyone to not bring a dog (s) but if you have to bring your dog (s) that they must be kept on a leash and attended to at all times! Your horses may be used to them running around them but others may not and we do not want to see anyone or any animal get hurt!!!!
