Just wanted to add I just had an email from the organizer they have 29 booths sold, more have been calling/emailing so will be more by Saturday she is sure AND Pete's Tack Shack from Six Lakes will also be there with a booth.
If you aren't familiar with this store it is on the corner of M66/M46 in Six Lakes so very easy to find and while a smaller store although they are working on the other half so will be expanding in the future. She has great prices and if she doesn't have it in stock will happily order I love their store. She also takes consignments of saddles/tack/clothing. Oh and is a Courbette dealer too for the english riders so always has some of that in stock.

I just wanted to add that I love Petes Tack Shack. It a very nice clean store and the lady who works there is just so nice. She will help you with anything you need. Also I just wanted to say that my mom (cricket) and myself will be at the sale today. I have been counting down the days or this to come  |

I just got done at the tack swap. I had a blast! My mom and I helped a friend buy a WHOLE english wardrobe for only $216 inlcuding saddle, boots, jacket, blouse, and stock pin!! I hope they have another next year! Will definatly go again! The only problem is that there was not enough parking. We got blocked in but was resolved. Maybe next time have it at a bigger venue or at least one with more parking.

You guys got great deals! I got a few too and sold some things including a saddle I wasn't using (western) so am very happy.
I talked ot the organizers as I was packing they were very pleased with the turnout since they really had no idea what to expect being the first year and all. So I think they will definitely be doing this again next year. Is nice to have one so close! It got very busy there for a while so I can bet the parking got a bit short, was some sort of tournament going on up in the bowling alley part that didn't help I am sure.
