Summit Stables

Happy Birthday to the four legged members of our family! Horses all officially turn a year older on January 1st regardless of when their actual birthday is. This keeps their age consistent for an entire show or race year.

We’ve said it again and again, there is no better place for kids to be than the barn. Horses teach more about life skills than any other sport. Stay tuned as we introduce our new Junior Intern program in 2021! https://www.theplaidhorse.com//barn-rats-over-mean-girls/

The Christmas fun continues! Congratulations to Brianne on her lease of the one and only Jasmine for the 2021 show season! Watch for this pair in the 8 and under division.

Now that we’re all home and thawed out from the Central States Fall Classic we want to thank @Lynn Mccalister for all her efforts in running the show, and share some of our highlights. Paige and Cowboy made their debut in the walk and trot pleasure with two winning rides! Kendra and Jasmine teamed up once again to win the 8 and under academy classes. Ella won her first blue ribbon aboard Jasmine in the 9-10 academy horsemanship. ... Cara and Mac were victorious in the adult academy horsemanship. Lily and Jasmine were second in the English pleasure. Christie and Goji were second in the open English pleasure. Olivia and Cruzer took third in the gaited show pleasure division. Thanks to all who helped this weekend, it’s takes a village and we have a great one!

Now offered for your consideration: SUPER GOJI This 2006 Saddlebred gelding is as long necked as they come! Suitable for pleasure or equitation he would be a great addition to anyone's program. With his great temperament and easy canter he would make an excellent addition to an Academy program as well. Can be seen next week at the Central States Fall Classic or could be brought to the Royal as well. Regretfully offered for sale as his rider is ready for her next challenge. For additional information please contact Christie Milbury at 603-568-2911.

Huge THANK YOU to Gale Holsman and American Waste for watering the outdoor in preparation of tomorrow’s horse show! All families are welcome to come watch and cheer on our riders from 1:00-3:30.

The two best ways to see maximum improvement in your riding skills: 1. More time in the saddle. 2. 100% effort and focus the entire time you’re in the saddle.

We’re hard at work gearing up for this Saturday’s fall fun show! Riders please get your nominations in for the parent/relative leadline class ASAP! Our walk and trot divisions are full but there’s still room for a few of our tiny tot leadline riders to join the fun!

It’s not too late to join us for Ladies Night at the barn! Come enjoy a mini lesson, dinner and drinks while enjoying the company of our fantastic group of adult riders, moms and friends. Email to RSVP!

Reminder to all our riders: WEDNESDAY is the last day to sign up for our barn show on October 10th! See your email for details.

We’re still looking for our truck stolen on Friday. Please keep your eyes open for any sightings!

Due to the severe storms and the current power outage at the barn lessons for the remainder of the day are cancelled. We will be in touch via email regarding make up spots.

This is post I hoped to never have to make again. STOLEN: 2006 Ford F-350 dually truck with temporary Kansas plates. This was the replacement truck for the ...one that was stolen and totaled earlier this year. Yes that makes two similar trucks stolen within 6 months. Please please be on the lookout and let me know if seen. Truck still has the toolbox bolted in the back. Was stolen from our farm address 9920 e 137th street in Kansas City MO (prior truck was stolen from my home). It was taken between midnight and 6 am. Truck was locked and had additional anti theft devices installed that apparently did not deter the thieves. KCMO police report: KC20065571
