A place to call home
The new Iron Horse Farm website is up and running! I made many changes to it last night (with more to come today). Iron Horse Farm is the currently under-construction farm that the ponies will reside at in mid-may.
the new website of Iron Horse Farm
Iron Horse Farm is privately owned by my parents, Anne and Paul, and it has been a family dream for over 20 years now. We are all very excited for this move, and with it will bring many exciting opportunities. Our 150′ x 280′ ring will be one of the largest riding arenas for mounted games in our area. In the future we hope to hold practices and competitions with even the ability to rent the ring to interested parties for clinics and events. If you have any questions please contact us through our website.

How did you do that?
Its the question I get over and over again….How did you teach your horse that? Sometimes I think my ponies are exceptional and that they learn simply by watching – which may be true to some extent – but the truth is my horses learn because they trust me, and they want to learn.
It may help if I start from the very beginning….
It all started in 2003 when I was given Chincoteague Minnow as a free lease to be used as my new mounted games pony (as I had just retired my 20 something Arab/Welsh cross).

Sunshine Days
Since spring is now officially here Chincoteague Minnow has been able to get back into the swing of painting. Created on March 8, 2009 (the day of my 25th Birthday) was “Sunshine Over Assateague”. This painting is one of my favorites – and would be a great addition to any home. Check out the website for more information on purchasing this wonderful work of art.

Pony Penning 2009
Chincoteague Minnow will be attending Pony Penning Week 2009 from July 27 – July 31 at the Chincoteague Pony Centre. We’re currently working on an act (and lots of new tricks) to debut at the Pony Centre this year. So if you want to see a great show be sure to come watch Minnow as he will perform daily at 4pm and 8pm each night. He will even be auctioning off a painting during each show. So this will be your chance to own an original!

Iron Horse Farm
Construction has been underway at Iron Horse Farm – future site of the Ponies’ new home – all year. Its nearing its completion stage and everyone couldn’t be more excited. Our new facility means more room for the training of new tricks. We even hope to hold mounted games competitions in the future.
