Equine Training Riding Boarding Horse Stables

Click on the Just Jump It Link and check the points to date. The final 2008 hunter schooling show is Saturday, December 6th.

The main barn at Eastwick is home to 21 horses. Complete with individual stalls, wash rack with hot and cold running water, tack room, supply room, and feed room. We also have a 3-stall and a 4-stall barn separate from the main barn. The stalls vary in size with the smallest at 12 feet x 12 feet. The walls are concrete blocks. Each stall has a window that opens to the outside, an overhead fly-spray system, built-in feed bin, wire-mesh front for good ventilation & easy viewing, and a half-door.

The outdoor arena is nestled among the oak trees, is approximately one acre in size, and is lighted with 280 amps of light. We have a variety of jumps including coops, roll tops, walls, planks, fences, and any combination of those. Also in this area is a regulation dressage arena.

The indoor arena is a 90 foot x 200 foot metal building. The footing is a combination of sand and clay, which is amended regularly to keep the footing comfortable and safe for riding. During the day, the windows let in lots of sunlight. At night, the arena is lighted by overhead lights that give plenty of light, slightly less than your office. There is a sprinkling system that helps keep the footing in good condition.

The gallop track is a 1/2-mile track and lays just to the east of the turn out pens. The track is a composite of 50% sand and 50% ground soil. The track is surrounded by a cattle pasture on the south, a pond and woods on the east, a horse pasture on the north and the Eastwick turn out pens on the west. A perfect place to work your horse away from the hustle and bustle of the barn and the arenas.

The turn out pens at Eastwick are a full-acre with plenty of grass. The winter schedule includes daytime turn out, the summer schedule includes turn out at night. Some of the pens are shared by two horses, some are shared by three horses. In the winter, round bales of prairie hay are placed in the turnouts for supplemental munching. All but two of the turn out pens have a shed for protection from the elements.

The round pens at Eastwick offer a great place to work a young horse. There are two round pens at Eastwick, the one pictured here is the big one. It is a 60-foot diameter pen with pipe and cable fencing. The footing is a composite 50% sand and 50% ground soil. The ground is worked regularly with the Arena Works so the footing is good and safe for working your horse.

The Mare Motel stands just to the north of the Manager's Office at Eastwick. The mare motel is definitely handy for stalling horses at horseshows, over-night boarders, or to quarantine a sick horse. The stalls are enclosed by pipe rail fence. Each stall is about 10 feet x 12 feet, covered on 3 sides, and equipped with automatic waterer and feed trough.
