EAST COAST EQUESTRIAN September 2025 16 Special Advertising Section Barns, Arenas Footing & WHITE HORSE CON- STRUCTION advises buyers to decide for whom are they building. It is said that “form follows function” to create extraordinary architecture, but when it comes to today’s barns there is far more than meets the eye. Beyond the rectangular box- es of four walls and a roof lies history and imagination. Although we sometimes view barns according to their function; i.e. housing livestock, cattle and horses, equipment, fodder, and often grain, there is far more that goes into a good barn. Today’s barns can serve many more functions than those mentioned, as they are used for residences, social gatherings, sporting events, wedding ven- ues, restaurants, etc. The barns we see today, that have lasted two centuries or more, are ones that were built well, leaving their counterparts literally in the dust; they are no longer around to compare. We are not much different from our ancestors of 200 plus years ago; we can choose to build a barn to last for our life- time only, or for generations to come. Simeon Stoltzfus of White Horse Construction says it this way: “When deciding on the design and method used to build a new barn of today, decide who you are building for; will your barn be a structure for the future to be handed down to subsequent generations, an investment add- ing to your estate and legacy, a time capsule for the future?” When imagining your next barn, choose value over expedi- ency, legacy over economy, and extraordinary for the ordinary.

Today’s Barns Serve Many Functions at White Horse Construction Winter is on its way, and with it comes difficult footing and challenging weather condi- tions. You’ll have a safe, dust- free place to ride all winter when you install footing from Arena Works in your indoor arena. Arena Works footing was developed by an elite dressage rider. It’s installed by an exca- vator who’s also a horseman, so he knows how specific and tidy it needs to be. Keep dust out of the arena equation with Evermoist EQ Moisturizer fromArena Works. It keeps your arena from get- ting dusty while also saving you the hassle of watering it. Arena Works has a variety of options to work with any budget. Their Gold Plus footing is by far the most popular, but they also work with a multitude of budgets in order to get the client what they need and can afford. The average arena only takes one day to install the new footing, and it’s ready to ride on immediately. “We want to be efficient with the installation so the clients who are riding there barely miss a beat!” said Dan Henry, owner. Arena Works is family owned and located in Lancast- er, PA. To get started on better footing this winter, call (717) 629-0576 or visit arenawork- sinc.com.
