My buddy and her daughter need a place to put up horses and electrical for trailer the week following the Bonus Finals in Lincoln. It would be April 14th until the college rodeo starts in Lincoln the following weekend. Not sure if that would be Thurs or Fri? Can anyone give me any ideas for them? If they can't find a place they won't be coming to the Bonus Finals as it would be a lot of road time with 2 trips down in 2 weeks. If they don't go to the Finals I'll have to cry and throw a fit.

Have they talked to the LEC at all? Maybe they would continue to let them rent some stalls. I know last year the Capital City arena allowed people to stay there for the BRF. I think they're about 10-15 min away from the LEC. I know they don't have stalls (they'd probably just let you keep the horses in the arena or bring pens) but I don't know about the electrical. I can give you or them the name of a person they can contact. Also, are they opposed to driving? There is a boarding barn near me about 20 miles away from the LEC that would possibly allow them to stay there. It's nothing fancy but I'm not sure about the electrical and if they'd just let you plug into one of the barns. I have that person's name too.
Those are the ones that I can think of at the moment. I know there were a few barns in Lincoln that opened up for the BRF last year (don't remember their names, sorry!) so those might be an option too. They posted last year on the FB page so maybe you'd have luck finding their names and contact info there.

Thank you! Jodi is planning on calling LEC Monday as she's away from home right now. They always travel with a generator and pens so if nothing else they can be self contained. Her biggest thing is it has to be safe since its just the 2 of them. If you don't mind can you pm me your contact info? I'll give it to Jodi and maybe she can work something out. Thanks so much!
