Super-Cheap Board Near Columbus, OH?

nightvision · 06-01-2008, 11:26 AM

Hey all,
I'm a student at OSU looking to bring my mare with me for this coming school year - starting in late September. I can only afford about $100 a month board.
Yeah, I know, I'm crazy to even try looking for something that cheap - but I figured I'd just go ahead and give it a shot - can't hurt anything.
I figured my best bet was to find someone who didn't usually board but has room for an extra horse and could use some help with chores. I took care of my girl myself throughout high school, I'm an Animal Sciences major here at OSU and I've taken most of the equine classes, so I'm very experienced and safe around horses. I can provide references to this effect as well if desired.
I'm very willing to work! I grew up in a rural area and worked on a Christmas tree farm, so I'm fairly handy when it comes to groundskeeping.
If anybody's interested, or knows of anybody who might be interested, please post or pm!
Thanks

This probably won't help you at all but there's a barn in Oberlin Ohio, about 2 hours away from Columbus, which is 160per month. It's really nice. You have to muck out your own stall, but they feed. There's an indoor arena and outdoor paddocks to ride in.

Let me know if you want more info.

with gas the way it is it would probably be cheaper for me to board at a more expensive place here than drive up there.
Thanks though
