Bromont Report

Most of the videos and updates we posted on RABT's facebook page. Bouncer did very well and completed his first ever 1 star. Lily very nearly had 5th but for a rail or two in stadium...she ranked 3rd for Young riders..an excellent outing. Little Oliver cruised around Training and came in 10th too.

Open House & Clinic

Please join us this weekend (Sat & Sun May 29 & 30 from 2-4:30pm) as we welcome back Babette Lenna for a great season of Eventing clinics and look toward sending Babette and our Irish Sport Horse Bouncer to the 2010 Bromont CCI one star in Canada. Tour the farm, see our new enhancements, watch some great riding as Babette works with students in our full sized dressage ring and on our cross country jump course. Refreshments served.

On Sat at 3:30, Babette welcomes questions and will talk in detail about her plans to compete Bouncer at the Bromont one star. This is an opportunity to gain knowledge on what it takes to prepare a horse for their first international event and talk about things you saw at the clinic that day, or any other training questions you need answered.

We will also be offering a raffle to help raise funds to send this promising pair to Canada. Enter to win great prizes including dinner at the Oarweed Restaurant in Ogunquit, Monogrammed Rest & Be Thankful polo shirts, Clinic session with Babette (at RABT June or August), Schooling for 2 at Rest and Be Thankful Farm, Olive Garden Gift Certificate, Hoofpix Sporthorse Photography laminated poster and note card assortment and more! All proceeds from the raffle will help defray Babette and Bouncer's Bromont expenses.

Can't join us but would like to help? Give us a call and we can mail you your raffle tickets!

Spring is here!

A few more days of sunny weather and it looks like the water jump will be open for the spring season! We are hard at work making starting some projects that have been long-discussed this winter; adding a deck to the tractor shed that overlooks the sand arena, building some portable cross-country jumps and getting the gardens going once again.

May is just around the corner and so is our first clinic with Babette Lenna. If you are interested in riding, please email. Registrations (and a brand new website!) will be up shortly.
