2010 Activities
In 2010 with the help of the Easy Rider 4-H Club, the arena fence was completly renovated and an entry way was added to the arena. The existing bleachers were removed due to safety issues. They were replaced with benches on both sides of the arena. A lot of work has also been done on cleaning up the grounds, cleaning up trees and brush, and repairing the doors on the storage barn. With the help of Tom & Sharon Burdine the concession stand was completly cleaned, painted and re-arranged. 
 
Currently planning on updating the water well and septic system, making more renovations and updates to the concession stand, and adding on to the building to make it more efficient and add permenant restrooms.
