Steuart Pittman Clinics in Maine

February 12th, 2010

Advanced level eventer and USEA ICP Level II Certified Instructor Steuart Pittman will return to Maine for clinics March 6 & 7, 2010.  This will be our last opportunity to ride with Steuart this winter/spring as he is not scheduled to return to New England again until later this summer!

Clinics will be indoors with excellent footing and are a great opportunity to build on winter work, or to enlist Steuart’s guidance to “jump start” a spring training program custom designed for you and your horse for dressage, gymnastics, indoor jumping, or whatever YOU would like to focus on.  $65 for hour-long semi-private or $80 for 45-minute private lessons.  Advance registration is required.  Auditors welcome.

Steuart is a nationally-recognized clinician whose prior clinics here in Maine and Northern New England have been very popular.  He is well regarded for his teaching and training abilities and his positive, fun-loving attitude which make his clinics both educational and fun.  More information about Steuart is available at his website, www.dodonfarm.com.  Check out the great work he has been doing with the Retired Racehorse Training Project, including at this year’s Maryland and Pennsylvania Horse World Expos at http://www.dodonfarm.com/RRTP-temp.html.

Beetle Baily – FREE To Good Home

February 1st, 2010

I just received this from a friend and thought I’d put it out there to see if we can find a home for this guy!



FREE to the right home, references required – Reg QH gelding, 10 years old, gray, 15.1 hands.  Good manners, easy keeper.  Well behaved for vet and hoof trimmings (I trim him myself).  He has great feet.  He is free because he has had some soundness issues that finally improved with chiropractic care, which should probably be continued at a maintenance level.  Originally trained Western but I rode English, doing beginning dressage work.  Was ridden WTC last summer and fall two to three days a week.  He also has been alone and isolated the last few years so will probably get excited in new situations and will need someone who can understand and work with that.  Located in Milford, NH.  Email for more info  clafrenaye@myfairpoint.net

PASS IT ON!
