Field Trip to Flat Rock Farm

[Blameitonbrio]

In June, my girls went to horse camp (well -- Grayson was a jr. instructor and Bailey was a camper), and one of the field trips was to Flat Rock Paso Fino Farm owned by Paul and Ali Casey in Louisburg, NC. Here are some pictures of the kids and horses and Juan Carlos (trainer). Juan Carlos has an effect on kids -- they just love him. They followed him around like puppies!

Here's Bailey (in foregoround) and a friend saying hello to one of this year's babies.

One of the things that wows me about this breed is that we took these kids to visit (ages 5-13) and they were able to meet and pet the stallion and everyone got a ride on a National Champion mare. You should have seen the smiles.

Sounds like my kind of field trip! :shock:

Great photos...the kids (including Juan Carlos) look like they had a great time. :D

What a fun summer camp experience. 8-) The kids, horses, and adults look like they are having a blast.

I also have a picture somewhere of Grayson and all the kids in Marisa's stall while Grayson is showing her off -- but I can't find it anywhere. I will post it when I find it. They all look so happy and Marisa is just basking in attention -- her favorite thing to do. 8-)
