    Are you in the Chicago area?  We'd love to meet you in person! Wood End Farms - a 501(c)non-profit devoted to the care, re-training and rehabilitation of Thoroughbred ex-racehorses - is having an open house this Saturday afternoon from 12 - 3. Stop by for a bite to eat, tour our facility (see our horse swimming pool!) and meet our retirees.

    We're located in Barrington, at 28044 Roberts Road. Here's a link to a map:

    You can reach us by phone at (847) 691-2243.

    Hope to see you there! If you stop by, look for me. In real life, I answer to 'Sarah."Big Smile

    Oh I would have loved that ! But unfortunately, I'm in MI.Sad I wish that there was a farm like you guys in my area, in which I can volunteer. I can't take riding lessons now so not being around horses is driving me nuts!

    P.S. Awesome pool - lucky horses!Yes
