PROBLEMS! PROBLEMS! PROBLEMS!

First China buys all of our alfalfa hay! They fill their empty containers with California hay and ship it back to China, which of course runs the price of hay sky high.

Now the water bill:
Malibu, Calabasas and Topanga are required to reduce the usage of water by 32% or our bill will be tripled. Mill Creek’s water bill is approximately $3000/month. We must all work together to reduce water usage. If we don’t we could see a bill of $9000 / month. This would be horrible for all of us.

Please help us!

Thanks,

Cory and Mr. Kim

Conserving Water

Cory apologizes for taking out the hoses from the wash racks. She says that you should use a bucket and sponge to clean off your horse after rides. If you are planning to go to a show and need to give your horse a full bath, please ask in the office for a hose.
