About the Owners
Barb & Dan have lived on the property for 45 years.
Dan Michaels enjoys "Eventing" (combined training). He has competed with his Holsteiners, Landonn and Lance at the USEA Preliminary Level and has started his young mare, Lena at Intro.
Using natural horsemanship techniques, Dan enjoys groundwork and trained Landonn and Lance since they were yearlings. His current project is developing his mare, Lena, who was confined to a single barn for 5 years. It is a challenge he looks forward to, and she is now competing at the Intro level while overcoming her fears of the world.
Eventing is a test of Dressage, Cross Country Jumping, and Stadium in one competition and known as the equestrian triathlon.
Dan was awarded the "Governor's Cup" at the 2022 United States Eventing Asssociation convention for his volunteer work with the organization over the years. Presently he is on the USEA Board of Govenors. He has a patent for a device for frangible fences on cross country which is in the testing phase.
