New Stalls for High Country Stables, Dallas Ga
Horse Stalls, Dallas Ga
Tuesday we had 30 loads of dirt delivered, thanks to Isaac Dugan and his Landscaping & Grading Company. Of course, to keep the 800 tons of dirt from washing away with the rain we brought in 3 loads of gravel! But on a good note, we needed the rain and the grass seed we planted a month ago is now sprouting bright green in the pastures!
November 24th to 26th – 3 Day Horse Camp – $175.00 for 3 days or $60.00 a day. This camp is for beginner to advanced riders. Campers are welcome to come for the 3 days or just one day. We will be working on English and Western Pleasure, Halter, Showmanship and running events so be prepared to ride. If you have your own horse and would like to trailer in please let me know so that arrangements can be made!
Paulding County Saddle Club’s Charity Show was a huge success. We raised money for the Special Olympics and Brass Family. Thanks to everyone who donated items for the silent auction.

Show Season will be here before we know it! Bryan Carlisle has one stall open for training! Don’t miss this awesome opportunity to have your horse and yourself trained by one of the top AQHA trainers in the South East.
Have a great and safe Thanksgiving!
The Phillips and Carlisle’s!
As you know our camps normally fill up quickly. But just to be sure – we will be doing some extra marketing in the next several weeks for the two Fun Days and the two 3 Day Camps coming up in November and December.
If you are thinking of attending these very popular camps we recommend you head on over to the Fun Day Page or the 3 Day Camp Page and put in a deposit to hold your spot!
No complaining if you miss out until next year… we are giving you advance notice because we appreciate you!

We had a great time at Shelton Elementary’s Fall Festival. Ian brought his lasso and steer head and taught the kids how to rope a calf. Nicole and I raffled off two free riding lessons. The winners were Katie W and Nikki M. We look forward to spending an hour with them and introducing them to the wonderful world of horses.
Bryan and Scarlet, with her horse Jose, are off to Ohio for the Congress World Quarter Horse Show. Everyone at the barn wishes them the best of luck!
Our hearts go out to Lyndsay! Although she has only been at the barn a few weeks we were very sad to say goodbye to her horse Max. Max collicked Friday night and though the mare had a big heart her body just gave out. Everyone will miss her!

Well we did it! The Carlisle’s and their horses are tucked into every knock and cranny of the farm but they are here! They have some beautiful Quarter Horses and everyone is welcome to stop by to say hello!

Ian and I had a great time at the three day Clinton Anderson advanced training camp in Chatsworth Ga. Ian and Maureen audited from the bleachers while Cody and I worked three full days together to make me a better trainer and Cody a better trained horse! We were all glad to get home – but it was a lot of fun and well worth the trip! Anybody interested in learning some training techniques if I put together a Saturday clinic?
Our last horse show of the season is October 25th at Wild Horse Park. It is our annual Charity Show and if anyone has an item or service they would like to donate please let me know and I will be happy to come pick it up! We also have a costume class and it is well worth the trip to the park to see the riders and horses all dressed up in their Halloween attire.
Our Fall/Winter Camp Schedule:
Fun Days - November 4th & December 22nd – 9:00 to 4:00. All ages – $50.00 for the day, which includes lunch. This is now limited to 15 kids and fills up fast so reserve your spot quickly!
3 Day Camps - November 24th to 26th & December 29th to 31st – all ages – 9:00 to 4:00 – $175.00 for the day, which includes lunch. Camp limited to 10 riders.

Big changes are coming to the farm! October 1st High Country Stables and Carlisle Performance Horses are joining forces. Bryan and Nicole Carlisle, along with their two children, Chase and Kiersten, are bringing 18 years of expertise and horse knowledge to our stables in Dallas, Ga. Along with their top show horses and AQHA youth riding team, we are getting quality lesson horses for our riding programs and camps. Bryan and his students have shown AQHA, State and 4-H as well as the Open shows and Fun Shows. Of course, this means we need to expand the barn and the riding area! Plans are to build another 7 stall barn and triple the size of the riding ring in the up coming months – I know what I am getting for Christmas – lumber and gravel.
Cody and I are off to the Clinton Anderson Clinic this coming weekend! I am excited, but I don’t know about Cody – I think he would rather be grazing in the pasture then ridden for three days straight!
As soon as we get back I will post the schedule for the Fall and Winter Fun Days and Horse Camps!
Happy Trails!

We came home from Perry Ga with a State trophy. Riders and horses did really awesome and our stalls were the best decorated! The theme was "just another dirty barn girl/boy" and the kids worked hard to make posters, silhouettes, and pictures. They are hung in the barn as proud tribute to all their diligent work!
I want to thank everyone who came out for "muck day" to help clean up the barn. We worked all morning and rode all afternoon. I didn’t think the riding ring could hold so many horses at one time without a major collision.
I am planning on attending the next Cobb County 4-H meeting, which will be the 1st week of October so that we can get started. I will post and contact everyone who emailed me about 4-H and set up a meeting for the middle of October. I have had several people interested in getting the vaulting team up and running again. Please email me with a day and time that would best work for you so that Annette and I can get that scheduled. I want to welcome two new horses to the farm. Callie, an ex polo horse, who is very sweet and belongs to a 9 year old little girl. And Dusty, a very handsome Buckskin. I hope everyone is adjusting to school and Fall! Happy Trail, The Phillips

I can’t believe our camps are finished and school starts in two weeks. We have had a great summer! It has been busy, fun, with never a dull moment. 
August 8th and 9th is the Paulding County Rodeo . Our Drill Team has been asked to do the opening ceremonies. We are selling tickets. They are $10.00 for adults and $4.00 for children. At the gate they are $15.00 and $5.00. If you would like advanced tickets please email me and we will get them to you! Come on out and see us perform – we have snazzy sequined vest this year!
Our State Riders leave August 28th for Perry, Ga. We are very excited! Way to go Kara, Ian and Olivia!
September 13th is a Saturday Fun Day! Join us for a day of riding, games, Fall crafts, lunch and a lot of fun. Cost is $50.00 for the day. 9:00 to 4:00
I want to welcome Cody McCol back into the farm! He is a 10 year old registered gelding. I bought Cody back in the Spring and sold him right before Christmas. I am glad to have him back! He is a sweetie and Cody and I are off to Chatsworth, Ga the end of September to spend a weekend with Clinton Anderson – a very well known horse trainer from Australia!
To all of you who attended the June Fun Day, do you remember planting the pumpkin patch? Well, I can’t tell you how big some of the pumpkins are. We have picked the orange ones and stored them in the hayloft. I hope they will keep until October’s Fun Day! 
I am working out the details for the 4-H program and hope to have it up and running by September 1st!
Our vaulting team will start the first week in September. If you would like to be on the team please let me know by mid August!
Nikki, our jumping instructor – who the girls just love, has been a wonderful asset to the farm! I would also like to welcome Kali. Kali does the cowboy mounted shooting and is going to help with lessons at the farm starting in August!
Our apartment over the barn is vacant. If you anyone with or without horse experience that would love to live in a country setting please let us know. It is a one bedroom apartment with laundry hook-up, full bath and a beautiful view of the pastures.
Happy Trails,
The Phillips
