Barns

The barns at the Held Equestrian Center rank among the finest stabling facilities in the Midwest. Special care was taken in their design and construction, with the welfare of the horse and ease of use the overriding concerns. The barns boast 12' x 12' stalls for 79 horses. Each stall includes rubber floor matting, a state-of-the-art Nelson automatic watering system, aluminum feed bowl, and large windows. In addition, the barns have automatic fly systems and separate bays for washing, veterinary care, and shoeing. The barns also offer riders ample locker rooms, showers and restrooms, a washer and dryer, heated tack rooms, and two large storage areas.
