Fun with the NVS Ladies

If you haven't made it to Ladies Night here's what you missed! Please join us at the next one, taking place on March 19th. We've been having a great time, improving our riding in a supportive fun environment, working on strength and balance exercises to launch us ahead for show season and trail riding days ahead.

Jaclyn from Nutrena speaks to an enthusiastic crowd.

Ladies Night featured a seminar with Jaclyn Gallant, our Equine Nutrition Specialist at Nutrena. She explained the choices we make for our horses and the superiority of it over other programs based on predispositions and needs of performance show horses. Jaclyn offers us wonderful support. One of the services she offers is testing the quality and composition of our hay, which we appreciate. Kit took home information shared by Jaclyn. A majority of our Ladies Night participants are horse (and donkey!) owners, who not only keep them here but set up horsekeeping at home.

Every one very much enjoyed the information she shared with us on Thursday and left with all of our questions answered.

Gretchen is all smiles after her ride!


Shanafelt. Caity Shanafelt 007.

Jane had a blast & did not complain even one time about the english saddle.


Patti & her 4 legged friend both have their ears up!


Jaclyn and Tiffany were pretty as a picture.


Annie not only found time to laugh, ride and have fun but cater the party with her delicious Cajun sweet potato and crab bisque.


Kit and I discuss if there is life without donkeys...


Trust me, you don't wanna know.
There was a red wine spill here moments earlier. In yet another educational moment brought to you by NVS Ladies Night we learned to assist in cleanup pour a little (eek!) white wine (trust me it was a sacrifice) on top of the red wine to dilute it and you're on the road to NO stain!
See you on March 19th! Advance reservations are required, email Sharon @ villastables@gmail.com or call: 860-535-1038.

And we close with the smoooooth sounds of Mr. Zac Casey who popped in to serenade us. It takes a brave man to drop in on Ladies Night, ground where even Nicholas fears to tread. Enjoy!
