Pecos Trail Cafe, 2239 Old Pecos Trail, Santa Fe, NM 87505
Get all your questions answered about what to do and not do when in a barn, whether it’s someone else’s or yours! If you are a visitor or guest, horse owner, barn owner or manager, plan to share your experiences with our two experts, Deborah Benenson of Raven Ranch and Devon Moore of Tiger Owl.
Deborah has managed a small boarding facility in the Eldorado area since 2004. It caters to people who look for a personalized touch. She says, “My background is a horse crazy person since childhood. I grew up to compete in reining, ranch versatility and reined cow horse events.” Deborah owns a Quarter horse.
Devon also describes herself as a, “horse crazy kid.” She adds, “From birth, I managed to never outgrow my passion for these animals! I started working as a horse professional at 18 for a former Olympic Three-Day Eventer in Washington state. I opened my own boarding facility five years ago in Lamy where I offer hands-on horse care in a non-competitive setting.” Devon is also a licensed therapist with a keen interest in equine therapy.
Come for the program at 7pm or dinner with others at 6 pm. We will be dining out in the front dining room and retiring to the back room for our program at 7pm.
