I wanted to become involved with Northwestern Stables because as a neighbor and a horse-owner, I value having this resource to continue the equine tradition in the Wissahickon section of Fairmount Park. I know first-hand that NWS lives its mission statement: "To serve the community by welcoming people of all ages, incomes, backgrounds and equestrian disciplines through providing affordable quality riding lessons, programs and boarding to the residents of the Philadelphia community and surrounding area, and to promote and maintain the equestrian heritage of the equestrian facility and Fairmount Park through the repair and beautification of the buildings and grounds." Come and see for yourself!
