Oct 13 @ 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm

22222222222222222222222222222222222Let’s gather up at Kathy Richardson’s Rusty Bar Ranch for our October meeting. Bring a dish to share and we will eat, talk, and plan future events. Then, for those of you who want to try out her new obstacle course, we can saddle up and play for only $10 per horse! If you prefer not to bring a horse, that is great too. Just come for food and conversation. I am so excited to see you all and try out some obstacles!

Kathy has an enclosed arena, and fully covered round pen which will have obstacles too. So, we will be dry regardless of the weather.

We also have a climate controlled viewing room for the meeting and eating, AND a full service restroom. No porta potties, stalls or horse trailers needed for a bathroom on the ranch.3
Kathy does ask that everyone start “in hand” and give your horse a chance to observe and get comfortable first.
If anyone feels uncomfortable bringing your own horse and would like to work with one of Kathy’s, please reach out to her directly.
Finally, please be certain all horses coming to the ranch are fully vaccinated. All of the horses who call this ranch home, are vaccinated.
If anyone has questions, please reach out.
I look forward to seeing everyone. Thank you!
