Third
The
concrete-aisled main barn houses thirteen stalls, an indoor
wash stall with hot and cold water, a tack room, a lounge, and 30x48'
loft for storage. Feed is kept in a separate building adjacent
to the barn. Immediately
behind the barn is a lighted all-weather riding arena with
dressage letters and jumps and multi-level cross-country jumps
throughout the woods and pastures. Highly
visible white, four-board wooden fencing fronts the roads,
reinforced with electric on the inside to provide maximum
security. Cross-fencing is a mix of wood and extra-wide
electric tape (on wooden posts for safety), depending on the
use of a particular area. Adjacent to the main barn are 2 paddocks for horses requiring individual turnout. There
are four main turnout pastures. Future plans include creating
more paddocks near the barn with footing similar to the
all-weather arena, for use during wet weather. This will
prevent damage to the pastures, and boarders and students will
not have to brave mud to catch their horses! Third
Charm horses are expertly shod on a five-week schedule by BWFA
certified farrier Dwayne Holder.
