Does anyone know why the equestrian center was closed? The barn was right by the North side entrance if I remember right.Just lack of interest? Seems like a barn and a corral/paddock couldn't have cost much to maintain.
Yes Yes the equestrian center did indeed cost TOO much to maintain. . . . lack of interest Seems it sounds so similar to OP's golfing operation. And you've recently seen other messages here about the growing national trend of closing golf courses. Probably a few years away, into the future here. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Wonder if it would make any sense to convert it to an "executive" par 3 course and turn the rest into a park / nature preserve? What does a rural county like Worcester need a nature preserve for? OP must have 50 acres of parks that are under utilized right now. There aren't many things uglier than an abandoned overgrown GC. There's one outside of Elkton. Godawful looking. BTW - Does anyone know why the equestrian center was closed? The barn was right by the North side entrance if I remember right. Just lack of interest? Seems like a barn and a corral/paddock couldn't have cost much to maintain. That one house by the pond with the raised roof looks a lot like the old barn to me. I drove by there 35 years ago and a spectacular looking young woman was pushing a wheel barrow full of manure out of the barn. I've felt kindly toward horse folks ever since. |
