We will be using Black Prong Equestrian Village for this event. Make sure they know you are coming for the ETS event. 

Black Prong Equestrian Center has sooooooooo much to offer us....including a highway bridge for just the guests, a horse maze and many many carriage obstacles that we can have a blast with. They have even added some new stuff just for us, you know I have been planning some FUN!!!  There will even be a few water obstacles with excellent photo ops!!!
