Parelli Play Days

Friday, August 8th and Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Because of travel times for some participants, the play day will span two days. We will have activities on Friday afternoon as well as Saturday. Come for one day or both days. We hope this will make for a more relaxing fun time with your horse. If participants would like to stay for Sunday as well, that can be arranged.

Primitive camping (i.e. parking in the field) is available at no charge - port-a-john and water spigot available at barn. Other lodging is available in Lexington.


This should be an excellent learning experience whether your Parelli journey is just starting or you are well on your way.

We have eight stalls and several paddocks available.

One bag of shavings is included with each stall, all stalls have rubber mats. More shavings are available at our cost - $6 bag. Grain and hay feeders are built-in in each stall. Bring your own water bucket.

The paddocks are more than large enough for several horses that are used to being pastured together. Some have watering troughs, some you need to bring buckets.

No charge for those wishing to tie to their trailers overnight or set up portable corrals at their campsite.

Pre-registration for play days is appreciated so we can plan properly.

Pre-registration is required if you wish to reserve a stall or paddock.
