from Chattahoochee Hills Eventing

After a record breaking twenty inches of rainfall, we were forced to cancel our last event of the 2009 season. Fortunately, the water has completely receded, but we did end up losing 30 cross country jumps. Normally even with several six and seven-inch rainfalls, the cross-country footing holds up remarkably well.

The water receded within less than 36 hours back to normal levels. This was the largest amount of rainfall for one weekend in recorded history which brought the Chattahoochee river up to the highest levels in record history (since the 1820's). 

We have been busy planning for next year and are anxious to jump into the 2010 season. We already have a full plate between our first event in April and the AEC next September, and the team is working hard to make those events the best yet.  

Construction carries on as scheduled, and every day the facility looks more and more complete.  Our competition stabling is coming along with 120 finished stalls, which will ultimately double with a finished product of 240 stalls. There will be plenty of space for parking and trailer parking within 100 feet of the stables, so everything is close and convenient. 

Full-time course builders Dan Starck and Alan Poor along with help from Rob Mobly and Jon Wells are doing a wonderful job building our jumps so we can have new and exciting courses for the upcoming season. We look forward to a great turnout next year and are appreciative of the continued support.
