At Rafter77 Arena, we have an emphasis on safety first. We teach barrel racing and speed events, starting with horsemanship as our foundation.
After training outside horses for many years, I learned the best way to help horses was to teach the riders. Contact us for more info on our lesson program.

Our horses are what separates us from the rest! We have well trained, finished barrel and pole bending horses. They all have lots of buttons, were started and trained correctly to help the beginner become advanced.

Our experienced instructors are passionate about teaching riders of all levels. From beginners to advanced riders, we can help you improve your skills and gain confidence on horseback.
