A Broken Spur Riding Academy wanted to give everyone some updates as to the progression of all the things we are working so hard to get up and going for 2026! We have been in constant communication with Grizzly Steel Structures and Steel Buildings & Structures Inc. for the delivery and installation of our barn! The estimated time right now looks to be about anywhere between the 1st-3rd week of January 2026. They are working hard to rush the order and if they can squeeze us in any sooner they will work hard to do so. We know everyone misses us and we miss everyone. Our board of directors, the McLaughlins, our staff and especially our Executive Director has worked hard to stay on top of the projects as we really want 2026 to be an amazing year for our community! Our herd cant wait to be home! We just really are anxiously awaiting.

We also wanna give a shout out to Eastern Aggregates, LLC a big tremendous thanks for being our gravel provider for this project!

After the barn is delivered we will get our stalls provided by Tractor Supply Co. In Beckley WV up and get the herd moved home and settled and start working on our beautiful new arena!

Lastly but not least everything is going to be new and shiny when we finally do our grand re-opening and the horses and talked to me and said they request for the first time in our 5 years of operation we ask if anyone wants to be there Santa? They said they need new halters, new lead ropes, new grooming kits and tools, treats, grain, hay and whatever else you think they might deserve as hard as they work to keep us smiling. If you want to help with the Santa List for our herd please reach out to donate!
