Spring Volunteer Day - Saturday, June 10th!

Saturday, June 10th
9:00am – 4:00pm
(You don’t have to stay all day, any help is appreciated)
BBQ, Prizes & Challenges!

Calling all Raynham boarders, lesson students, show students & their families! We’re always working to improve the facilities here at Raynham Stables to make it a better place to ride. Here’s your chance to be a part of it! 


Spring Volunteer day is back!  We haven't had an official volunteer day since 2019, before Covid!  As always, we have a ton of projects to tackle around the farm. There are so many things to do this year that we are planning a whole volunteer weekend! The volunteer days will run 9:00am - 4:00pm but you do not need to stay all day, any help is appreciated. We hope to see many Raynham riders out to lend a hand!  There will be jobs appropriate for younger students as well as parents (Dads - we're looking at you!).

Jobs include:
  • Redo fencing in between back paddocks
  • Fix wash stalls (pull out mats, level gravel, replace mats) 
  • Clean/organize loft
  • Staining/painting XC jumps
  • Clean up gardens and re-plant
  • Clean up branches (everywhere!!!)
  • Clean up around the stadium ring
  • Repair/replace electric fencing around the front paddocks
  • Dig out corners around the dressage ring
  • Rake and pick paddocks
  • Cut down trees in paddocks, and around indoor and outdoor arenas
  • Trim/weed eat around the fence lines
  • Power wash stalls/ceiling in the barns
  • Clean mirrors in arenas
  • Clean windows in barns
  • Tack inspection and conditioning 
  • And there's always more!

We will be holding a raffle for prizes and FREE private lessons (jumping or dressage, your choice!) at the end of the day.  You get a ticket to put into the draw for each hour that you are here helping out! We will provide a BBQ lunch and refreshments throughout the day.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Nikki & your Raynham Team
