What riders say about Detroit stables

Buffalo Soldiers Heritage Association

☺️ I just wished someone would answer the phone!!🤗 They're outside tending to the property so that's okay. I just like to talk on the phone!!😌 🎂 Either way, my birthday is tomorrow and I would like to spend the day here. I'm excited to see the horses, the park, and learn history about my people!!

Fantastic news out of Detroit! Detroit Horse Power has officially broken ground and is actively building out their very own equestrian center! The energy and momentum around this project are palpable.
