News/Events

Welcome to my first blog posting!
The barn is gearing up for our next Friendship Series show on Oct. 4. We added some fun classes this time that will benefit Project Contact's Fasting for the Hungry. Quarry Ridge's own Sam Richard along with former NBA star Kermit Washington will be staging a pledge driven 5 day fast held on the Quad at American University in Washington D.C. They hope to raise enough funds and awareness to feed 2 million people. Project Contact founded by Kermit Washington and medically directed by Sam Richard is a grass roots non-political non-religious charity that provides medical services in the slums of Nairobi, Kenya. Starting with a street clinic 14 years ago it now has a free-standing full-service medical clinic. Entry fees collected from these classes will be donated to Project Contact. Anyone wishing to sponsor Sam in his quest to fast would be gratefully accepted. I am grateful he is fasting on the other end of the country! :-)
This is the last Friendship Series show of the season. We are also trying to schedule our every other year Halloween party as the pumpkin patch is ripening fast. More on that later. Do I have any volunteers?
The next event is Opening Day of foxhunting with the Woodbrook Hunt Club in Tacoma on Oct. 26. Doc is staying home for that one.
In November we have the grand Julia Kubicek returning from Florida to conduct a 2 day clinic here at Quarry Ridge Nov. 14 & 15 and she will be the honored guest at our Friendship Series 2nd annual awards supper on Sunday Nov 16 4-7 pm at the Manor Grange Hall in Battle Ground.
December 6 & 7 we are hosting another Kathy Everman Dressage Clinic. Slots are filling fast. Contact us in the office if you are interested, but don't delay.
CONGRATULATIONS to Diane Leonard on her purchase of the fabulous Norm. They both are very lucky to have each other. Best of luck to Corinna as she embarks on her first year of showing on Captain.
