Preserve Wellington Equestrian Lifestyle

An end may be in sight for the controversial Flying Cow Ranch project.

Could judge’s ruling end Flying Cow Ranch project in Wellington? Could this judge's ruling mean the end for the controversial Wellington development?

Flying Cow Ranch jets will adversely impact residents of Sun Glade Point, Palm Beach Point and countless other equestrians in Wellington's Equestrian Preserve. Near misses with Aero Club pilots are also a real possibility.

Equestrians understand the very serious potential dangers involved in mixing horses and airplanes. A jetport located right next to residences and horse farms is totally inconsistent with the equestrian lifestyle.

Let today’s national recognition of ones’ love for horses be a reminder to help protect the Equestrian Preserve by attending the Village of Wellington’s Equestrian Preserve Committee meeting on August 1 at 6:30 pm at the Village Hall.

Sometimes things have a way of working itself out but we must think ahead about the next application and protect our Equestrian Preserve today from future applications.
Airplanes and horses do not mix.

Bankruptcy stalls controversial Flying Cow Ranch project in Wellington A controversial proposal to build an equestrian-aviation neighborhood is on hold indefinitely after...

“It’s great to see the Village of Wellington be so proactive to protect and to preserve our Equestrian Area from conditions like Fireworks that can potentially spook a horse and create an incredibly dangerous situation”.
Thank you Village of Wellington!!!!

Happy 4th of July. May everyone enjoy a ride on their favorite mount today safely. What a spectacular way to celebrate and to display the spirit of our Independence.

This is a previous article. It’s a good read and a great reminder of the potential harm to the Equestrian Preserve.

Is proposed Wellington airstrip, community too close to Aero Club? A developer is planning a new neighborhood on the outskirts of Wellington that combines an airstrip with equestrian facilities.

Just a fun thought for the day: “Horses and airplanes don’t mix”. Maybe that is what this horses’ facial expression is stating.

Horses can make facial expressions just like humans Horses can make 17 facial movements and the researchers at the University of Sussex narrowed down what some of the most common expressions may represent.
