For many of us at Four Star Farm this is the highlight activity of the year. Eventful Acres is a beautiful cross-country schooling facility located in Oregon House, northeast of Yuba City and Marysville. Eventful Acres has jumps appropriate for every rider, from first time on a cross-country course, to Preliminary Level.
Bring your horse or lease one of Four Star Farm's lesson horses for the weekend. Eventful Acres provides a paddock for your horse and space for tent camping, with restrooms and showers included. There are several RVs available through Eventful Acres if you do not wish to tent camp. (Please contact Rod and Karen Hiskens, owners of Eventful Acres, directly to reserve an RV, 530-692-0919.) You can bring your own RV as well.
The weekend also includes a trip to nearby St. Francis Lake for swimming and fun!
Riders are grouped according to ability, from beginner to advanced, with 3-4 people per group.
To sign up, complete the Four Star Farm worksheet (Word), sign the Eventful Acres liability form (Word), and mail both forms with full payment. Deadline to receive the worksheet and payment is July 25. Payments received after that date incur a $25 late fee.
Meals, drinks and snacks are provided from lunch on Friday to lunch on Sunday for a fee of $40, which will be collected separately. Breakfast is self-serve bagels, cereal, pastries, coffee, juice and milk, and vegetarian options are available for all meals.
This is a fun weekend and whether you're new to Four Star Farm or have been a client for years, you're welcome to join in the learning and fun!
