NORMANTOWN EQUESTRIAN SCHOOLING SHOW THIS SATURDAY

Students at the Normantown Equestrian Center will get their first opportunity to show off their skills this year on “home turf” this coming Saturday, May 9, at the Equestrian Center, located on Normantown Road, south of 119th Street. The all-day event begins at 9a. this Saturday, and the public is welcome to attend.

Riders at all skill levels will have a chance to compete against others at their level from around the area in some forty different categories, and the riders themselves will range from young beginners to adults.

“The show allows each student to perform and show how their skills have progressed,” said Normantown Center manager Amanda Bergman, “and to do so in a friendly but competitive environment. While this will be the first show of the season here at our facility, it is just one of many scheduled at a variety of locations in coming months.”

The Plainfield Park District’s Normantown Equestrian Center is one of the unique attractions owned by the Park District, and is one of only three such public facilities in northern Illinois. The Center offers a variety of lessons and programs for riders throughout year, weather permitting, and also offers boarding year-round for privately-owned horses when stall space is available.
