Western Equestrian coach Rose Stayer-Ruffner was excited to have students, staff, and administration tour the facility and learn more about what the team has been working on. “A special thank you goes out to everyone who attended our open house to support our team and horses. It was a great evening and allowed others to learn more about the sport and our team.”
