Our Next Step: A Dedicated Riding Arena

At Cheyne Ranch, everything we do starts with safety.

As our program grows, we are seeing more students, more lessons, and more opportunities for connection and confidence. It is exactly what we have been working toward.

With that growth, it is time to take the next step.

We are ready to build a dedicated riding arena designed specifically for our students.


Why This Matters

Our current riding space has worked for us, but it was never designed for the structure and consistency our program now needs.

A dedicated arena will allow us to:

  • Create a consistent and predictable environment for our riders

  • Support students who benefit from routine and clear boundaries

  • Provide a space built specifically for learning and safety

This is about continuing to offer the kind of experience our students rely on every day.


This shows where the new arena will be located on the property.

What We’re Building

We are starting with the first step, which is building the perimeter fencing of the arena.

Our goal is to raise $4,000.

This will cover:

  • $2,000 for materials

  • $2,000 for installation

We will add footing and make additional improvements later. This first phase allows us to begin using the space.
