Dear Students and Parents,
Longacres
Farm Riding School
is closing. I say this with
mixed feelings. After 22 years
of providing horseback riding lessons, it is hard to let go of such a
rewarding endeavor. The
decision to close was based on many factors but mostly the poor economy that
has increased overhead and kept new customers away.
We want to thank all of
you loyal horse lovers and parents who have faithfully brought your child
for lessons rain or shine. We
could not have lasted these 20 some years without your support.
The closure will cause some inconvenience but we are working out ways
to fulfill any membership agreements by riding here or at Whispering Meadows
where Crystal
will move her horses. During
this time we will be open certain days to meet those obligations but we will
not be taking any new students.
We sincerely hope that
you will continue your horse education.
Crystal has been one of the
best instructors Longacres has had and I highly recommend that you try to
take lessons from her. She will
be starting a full time job and will be limited in teaching hours but this
should be temporary and by spring, she will have time for all of you. Take
it from me good horseback riding instructors are hard to find.
I will keep the latest on our website so you can check there.
I am sure all of you
will wonder what will happen to the horses.
Star, Sara, Annie, and Twister get to retire here at Longacres.
They will enjoy the comfort of a warm barn when they want or wander
out into the weather when they want; munching goodies here and there…they
have earned a peaceful retirement. The
other horses (Sally, Elliot, Shadow, JJ, Cruiser, and Shadow) will go to
Whispering Meadows a very nice equestrian center off highway 99 on the way
to Junction City.
Happy Trails,
Greg & Nancy Sulliger
