SUMMER — Kid’s Camp Photos

To see more about the camps, click here and sign up for 2021!

A Silver Stables event held at Summerwind Marchadors in Pagosa Springs CO. D.j. Sims, the instructor, tailors the camps to the interests and riding abilities of the students. The first day is matching the horse and rider and sometimes trying 2 or 3 horses before we have a fit! Then the students get to know the horse they will be riding for the majority of the time – in the arena, on the meadow course and out on trails.

Breeding

OBI!

Meet Obi do Summerwind! Our newest baby horse, he is a black colt, born March 22, 2020.

Obi is the son of Jedi-Knight do Summerwind x Gralha M.U.G. 2019 was Jedi-Knight’s first year breeding and both foals born to-date seem to have his laid-back and confident personality and his excellent gait.

We are looking forward to watching Obi – love the MM babies!
