Absolutely crushed it today at Waredaca PVDA show, Vito won his class on a 71.94!! So pleased with his progress, I am so excited to have this guy on my roster!

09/05/2022

So grateful for this big guy, this year has gone sideways in every imaginable way and yet I have still been able to learn so much about balance while trying to figure out how to do dressage... It's hard man, but Allison and Ro keep supporting me and I am so lucky to have them!

Rascal is getting so much more confident, growing up so nicely! Starting over fences and ready to be a proper event horse!

09/04/2022

A couple of set backs with this one but he is doing so well I am really excited to see how far we can get with Rod!

09/03/2022

Not a perfect day but I do love this horse!!

08/20/2022

Um yes!...

Sunday outing to Loch Moy farm was another success.
Willie worked on his confidence over fences and put in a great round. Alisa and Peau did a great job working on their rhythm and accuracy. Emily and Cruiser also had not 1 but 2 fantastic rounds. But the star of the day was definitely my Calypso who put in a clean round at training height.
Way to go girls! Keep up the great work.

Almost 7 years ago my sister convinced me that I could use a "Lesson" horse. After browsing Virginia equestrian Madi sent me a "Free lease" listing that I couldn't talk my self out of. On paper he was everything I said I needed in a potential program horse so we took a chance on a new adventure.

Clifford aka Cliff/Cliffy ended up being so much more than just a leased lesson horse. He quickly became part of the barn family. Clifford had previously climbed the levels of eventing with his owner. After reaching his max he became the perfect horse to show other riders the ropes of eventing.
Over the last 7 years he has introduced many students to the world of horses. From their first time over fences to taking others to training 3days he has proven his worth many times over. Clifford was our lesson programs foundation horse. Since leasing him we have added a few other wonderful horses to a fast growing program.

Yesterday Clifford went back to his amazing owner to live out his retirement days as a spoiled pasture ornament. We can't thank Julia enough for trusting us to love her boy like she does. Clifford will be missed around the farm, but he has definitely earned his days of leisure.

HAPPY RETIREMENT CLIFFY!

This beautie watches me mow the fields all the time waiting for me to flush out some dinner, today a bunch of small birds came and attacked him and tried to run him off

The birds who hatched in a box of screws, crazy

This boy is stepping up big time!! Winning training level on a 68.6% plus he is just the cutest little thing! Thank you Mary for all the support on this little 'trail' horse!

Do you have a love for horses? Enjoy spending time with them? If so Chapel View may have the job for you... we are looking for someone to feed, clothe (if need be), and bring In and out our 27 horses.

For someone looking to take on a more full time position, we are also looking for barn help on the weekends. You would be responsible for mucking the stalls, dumping, scrubbing, and filling water buckets, as well as leaving a flake of hay in the cleaned stall.

Excellent schooling at Beverly Equestrian, Willie put in a clean round and Roxy moved up to 2'6" ready for bn at Middleburg, and Calypso did her first round at 3'3" ahead of her move up at Seneca!
