TACK SHELTER NEWS
New expanded hours: IMPORTANT NEW EMAIL ADDRESS: marie@merrymount-tackshelter.com WINTER SPECIALS Please stop by and check out our winter specials. It's helpful to call first or at least check the store hours at the top of the page. Directions can be found on the Merry Mount site or if you have any questions, I will be happy to help you when you call. If you are having trouble find an item, I can often obtain stock in one to two days (or we may have it in stock already). HAY ALTERNATIVE We are now stocking Timothy Grass Hay Pellets by Standlee Hay Company. If you have a need for a hay alternative for senior horses, for horses with allergies, for horses who need more weight (but not more energy from grains), for horses who are insulin resistant or for horses with cushings, this could be your answer. Please call or come by for more information or a sample to try. MERRY MOUNT NEWS LEASING PROGRAM We are pleased to make available several horses to lease. This can turn into a lease to own if we are all agreeable that this is the right horse for you. Your lease agreement will be a "half lease". Half board and weekly riding lessons will be your only expense. You will be able to practice on your horse anytime the arena is available (hours of operation apply) and really get a hands on experience. In addition if there is room and the level of riding is appropriate, you could even ride in additional lessons during the week. This should help you and your family decide if and when you are ready for ownership. For more details, please call Marie at 304-274-9351. Congratulations to Cindy Gale for her successful leasing of Gentil. Gentil is now residing with Cindy across the street from her house in Jefferson County, WV. Gentil is thriving in her new environment and Cindy hasn't stopped smiling for weeks. DRESSAGE CONSULTING Are you
getting ready for a dressage show? We can help you by:
STRESS RELIEF CLASSES (with horses) Is the world stressing you out? Economy, job, health, family, car, mortagage, money in general?? Our horses can help. To find peace from within, bond with a horse. What our students are saying: "My class at Merry Mount is the only place I feel at peace with the world during the whole week" "When I am with my horse, my troubles, my aches and pains just melt away." "I come here to get rid of stress." Come and join a class. We have relationship classes that will blow you away. You will bond so closely with your horse that you will swear he is reading your mind. Or, join a riding class and re-discover the joy of horseback riding. EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITIES Work at the barn is always interesting, often challenging, and not for the faint of heart. For several months of the year, the weather is just right, but, then there are the really cold months and the really hot months, and still the horses expect to be fed and cared for in the best possible way. But, if your life is all about horses, then this could be the dream job of your life, and the opportunity to learn from the best. So, if you are interested, give us a call for an interview at 304-274-9351. FARM WORK We are looking for a man or woman with a chain saw who wants wood to cut for sale or for your own use on shares. Lots of wood that needs to be cut. Please call for more information and an interview. 304-274-9351 Merry Mount Riding |
