Meet the Family at Schunnemunk & Hollybush

Shelley Gray has been caring for & boarding horses for over 15 years. She strives to continue educating herself and her staff with the latest in horse care, pasture maintanence, and barn standards. It is by know surprise that both Schunnemunk and Hollybush were certified by the New York State Horse Health Assurance program and that they are only one of 5 boarding facilities with lesson programs to be approved in the entire state.

Shelley's goal has been to create a facility that allows children & adults, from all walks of life, to enjoy horses safely, affordably and with excellent instruction. As a 4-H leader of 18 years, it is important to her to give young riders all the tools needed to become great horseman. This is achieved by bringing in the best of the best to instruct.

Instructors & Trainers

Our instructors are talented people who are open and willing to share their knowledge. They are honest and straight-forward and they create an atmosphere of learning that promotes self-confidence and enthusiasm in all their riders. Riding must be fun for a student to really learn the physically and mentally demanding task of riding correctly. Probably one of the most important factors to consider about an instructor is the way in which instructions are given. Our instructors observe each rider carefully and correct errors in your riding in positive ways, making your experience pleasant and enjoyable.
