Pat Weizba hired Integrity Post Structures to build an indoor riding area and he couldn’t be happier. “Riding in here with the 20-foot high walls is really worth it,” says Pat. “The building is 100% insulated. While we have no heat in the riding area at all, it’s really comfortable and we can ride out here all winter.”
“The most important part was to get the maximum width of 90 feet. It allows us to do almost any exercise we want with horses, from running barrel patterns to working cows.” “Integrity Post Structures provided a great service,” says Pat. “They were a very hardworking crew and everybody was amazed at the quality of the work.”
Whether you are into Western, English, show jumping or other equestrian sports, an indoor arena can make a world of difference when it comes to training your horses. “I have been involved in the construction of dozens of indoor riding arenas across Western Canada,” says Al Williams, partner at Integrity Post Structures. “Considering our harsh weather swings in both winter and summer, our clients have found their arenas to be a safe, comfortable and consistent environment for training their horses.
