Ethel Walker School
It’s an exciting and opportune time for you to support a special project for The Ethel Walker School Equestrian Program.
Walker’s has made many changes and improvements to strengthen and enhance the Equestrian Program including the addition of renowned Director of Riding Linda Langmeier and Head Trainer Jo Seaver ’99 to our riding faculty.
A priority project for the continued enhancement of the program is the renovation of the Outdoor Show Ring to a contemporary, high quality competitive standard. This improvement includes an irrigation system, premium footing, new fencing, and a set of show-class jumps that are attractive, durable and versatile for all jumping disciplines. This upgrade to the outdoor ring will greatly benefit all aspects of the riding program including improved safety for our girls and horses, an enhanced show preparation environment, increased capacity and versatility for lessons, and improved effectiveness for maintenance. This newly-renovated outdoor ring will certainly complement our existing, beautiful facilities, including our new paddocks, and be an aesthetic draw for our current and future riders. This project will also provide Walker’s with an opportunity to once again host on-site outdoor riding competitions.
We can’t do this without your support! Please join us in making this project successful by making your gift.
