The "BellaRose" barn was founded in 1979 and has a rich history within its walls. Built by the Wharton Family, who bred Trakehner warmbloods and trained 6 homebreds through to the Grand Prix levels of dressage. In 2018, the Wharton Family entrusted the next 40-years of equestrian success to the Offermanns Family to carry on the tradition
The "BellaRose" barn was founded in 1979 and has a rich history within its walls. Built by the Wharton Family, who bred Trakehner warmbloods and trained 6 homebreds through to the Grand Prix levels of dressage. In 2018, the Wharton Family entrusted the next 40-years of equestrian success to the Offermanns Family to carry on the tradition of excellence in horsemanship and training. During the last 5 years, the Offermanns Family has accomplished a complete "face-lift" of the farm and hosted Olympic Clinicians, GDCTA Dressage Schooling Shows and Ride-A-Tests events as well as developed an incredible team to educate riders in USPC Pony Club horsemanship curriculum and care for our horses in the best way possible.
If you walk the barn, you may find our namesake mare "Milym BellaRose" who was born at the farm and is the reason why we own this incredible facility (when you meet her you will see why).
