This is a year you won't want to miss. Drumroll..... We will be opening our 2nd floor saddle and tack showroom to the public at this event!
We have been working really hard this year to bring in all the brands everyone has asked for. It quickly brought to our attention that we were out of space in our current 10,000sq.ft., building. We added another 1,000sq.ft., show room that we are excited to announce houses another 3,000+ products (over 60 in stock saddles, english & western) and a host of great brands. 

We will have a number of representatives on hand from our new lines of products to help answer any questions. Just to name a few brands, Bates, Wintec, Stubben, Lettia, Bitlogic, Twisted X, Martin Saddlery, Cahsel, Nunfiner, Tory Leather, Mountain Horse, Pessoa, Shires, 1K Helmets, Tipperary, Troxel, Roeckl, Classic Equine and more.

We have also added in some large item brands including, Shelter Logic, Behlen, High Country Plastics, and more.
