Lisa Jo White, owner of John White Stables, has been named Instructor of the Year by the Arabian Horse Times in both 2010 and 2011. This recognition is awarded based upon the input of the readers of the Arabian Horse Times. Lisa was also the recipient in 2011 of the APAHA (Arabian Professional and Amateur Horse Association) Instructor of the Year Award.
Lisa offers a lesson program for all ages. The focus of our program is to provide our riders with confidence, self esteem, a sense of achievement, and an understanding of horses and horsemanship. Whether you are an adult who is beginning a new adventure in riding and / or horse ownership, or you are the parent of a “horse crazy” child who just wants to ride, we encourage you to join our program which is designed to empower each rider, while keeping him safe. Both adult and youth will be encouraged to participate in local academy shows, where they will ride a lesson horse and compete against other beginning riders. These shows allow new riders an opportunity to experience the thrill of competition and the satisfaction of accomplishment.
The 2011-2012 Academy/Barn Shows will be starting in December at Merriehill Farm, 6715 Meyer Rd. , Marengo, Illinois, 60152. The first show will be held on Sunday, December 11, beginning at 10:00 AM. A show schedule and/or more details can be attained by going at www.merriehillfarm.com or by calling Lisa. Consecutive shows will be held on the second Sunday of each month through April.
