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 for more information on sponsoring a show.

***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.
