Thank you Haven Farm!!! A huge thanks to Jenni Wymer and Haven Farm for sponsoring the June 13 schooling
show! The show was a big success, with 31 riders showing up to participate and put up 131 rides. All but two
classes were run, and things didn't wrap up until almost 4 pm. Everything ran very smoothly thanks to Haven's many dedicated
and hardworking volunteers that Jenni rounded up. The Pony Club cookshack served up its usual mouth-watering
fare. Thank you to everyone who helped make this show such a success! The August 1 date is still available for sponsorship; contact Sara Papajani @ 206-780-5322 or at sarapapajani@yahoo.com

***BISC BACKGROUND *** Bainbridge Island Saddle
Club is a membership organization whose purpose is to support riders and their horses on Bainbridge Island and the surrounding
areas. BISC owns and maintains a riding facility with easy access to trails in Manzanita Park.
Facilities include: a large arena with covered viewing stand, office, judges tower, cook shack, restrooms, covered
picnic area, a smaller warm-up arena, stalls for day use, and water.
BISC hosts six hunter/jumper schooling
shows each year. The primary emphasis is to provide a fun and supportive environment for members to gain experience
with their horses. Shows are held April through October. No pre-registration is required, although
it is recommended that stalls be reserved in advance.
BISC supports the local equestrian community by making the
faciilities available to Pony Club, sponsoring clinics and schooling shows, and allowing private and semi-private
lessons in the arena. The facility is also available as a rental.
BISC is funded through annual membership
fees, show fees, and donations of time, money, and expertise from members and the community. It is governed by an elected
Board of Directors.
