It's finally spring!

Hello!
Well, it's finally starting to look like spring here at camp. The grass is green and the buds are popping out on the trees.
Last Friday was warm and sunny, so we got out and took some pictures of the horses relaxing in the sun. Some were napping, others rolling (because they are shedding like crazy right now), and some of them just came over to see if we had treats.


Over the weekend we had several girl scout troops here at camp to earn our Horse Lover's badge. It was a beautiful weekend with lots of sunshine and mild temperatures. We were even able to get out on the trails for the fist time this year. Thanks to our staff, the girl scouts and leaders that came to spend the weekend at Hoofbeat!
Today has been rainy and overcast, but by the end of the week things should be even more green! We are hoping to be able to let the horses out to their pastures soon so that they can enjoy the grass. Some of them have been waiting by the gates, hoping to get let out, but the grass was not quite long enough. Today's rain will help!

Hello From Hoofbeat!
 We hope everyone is enjoying the spring! When the snow melts, that will help!
We got about 5 inches of snow on Sunday night, but it has been melting quickly.
The horses don't seem to mind the new snow - about five of them (Smokey, Cody, Tristan, Peter Pan, and Pirate) were all laying down, napping in the sun this afternoon.
We are gearing up for summer and are looking forward to having many of our staff from last year return again this year. We've hired a couple of new international staff. Olivia will be joining us from the United Kingdom and Rebekah is coming from Australia.
There are quite a few camp sessions that are full or almost full. Sign up soon if you haven't yet!
We look forward to seeing everyone this summer!
-Ted, Mary, and all of the Hoofbeat staff

Happy New Year!

We had a blast with everyone this Christmas Camp. From the Frozen themed party, to the fluffy horses, and the new friends. Thank you to everyone who has shared this past year with us and we are already looking forward to the next year. Here are some of the cabin photos from last night's party.
