  ATLANTA BLOGGERS HORSE AROUND AT SUNSET PICNIC

Media guests are introduced to horseback riding at new Atlanta 

equestrian center

  (Atlanta, GA) Pure Horse Play, Atlanta's newest equestrian center, invited a small group of lifestyle bloggers to a special Blogger version of their signature Sunset Picnic on Tuesday, June 24th. The family owned facility offers several packages that include everything from horseback riding, equestrian teams and summer camps, to romantic sunset picnics for couples. The owner Michelle Phillips runs the facility along with her three daughters. “Initially this was just a way for me to spend time with my daughters as they were getting older. Eventually people saw what we were doing and started to ask how they could learn as well,” explained Phillips," the next thing I knew we were in the horse business."

  Phillips kicked off the evening by introducing her precious stars of Pure Horse Play, the horses.  Guests were given the history of each horse and had the opportunity to pet each horse and learn a little about their personality.  Phillips then took guests to the training circle for a quick tutorial on how to properly ride and let whoever wanted to join get on their own horse. “I feel that it is very important that our guests get the opportunity to learn a little about riding a horse from day one. We want you to learn and feel what it’s like to be on horse. This is not just a follow-the-leader trail ride,” says owner.

  Following the tutorial, guests were escorted to the riding trail and were given a presentation on what Pure Horse Play’s Sunset Picnic package would look like. At the end of the riding trail, there was a candle lit covered picnic table with a basket full of desserts and a bottle wine for guests to enjoy. Although guests enjoyed the sunset picnic simulation, information on the riding lessons and summer camps held the attention of the crowd.  Phillips discussed the positive effects of animal on children and how they see a difference in many of their campers. "We know that riding and caring for horses is therapy for children and adults. We have seen a difference in students when they start at Pure Horse Play compared to after a few lessons.  It really teaches responsibility and allows children to connect on a level they aren't often exposed to today," Phillips states. She explained how many children with disabilities and even autistic children have shown great progress when exposed to horses.

  The evening concluded with Michelle Phillips inviting guests to return for the facilities 1st annual Independence Day concert.  The family friendly event will feature kiddie games, music, fireworks and of course horseback riding.
