equestrian team
Stars Hollow Farm LLC, located in Highland County, is now offering a high
school and middle school Interscholastic equestrian team for sixth-12th
grade students. The Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) was formed
and organized in 2002 to promote and improve the quality of competition and
instruction available to middle and high school students. The IEA now has
over 5,000 student riders on hundreds of teams across North America. The
unique aspect of IEA competitions is that none of the riders will supply
their own horses or tack. Instead, the horses, saddles and other tack are
provided to the students at the show. An organizational meeting will be held
at Stars Hollow Farm on Sunday, Jan. 27 at 2 p.m. If you would like to
attend the meeting or have any questions, call Donna at (937) 466-2330.
