No no sales----------CLOSED. A friend of mine had a saddle on consignment there they called her yesterday said you better come get it or the bank will seize it with the rest of the stuff...............
That is aweful--they had like 35 employees
AND i have heard Double JJ may be following-- even with the proceeds from their festival they are like 18 million behind!!!!!

I would assume tons of debt from putting in that new indoor water park last year. But who knows --everytime I have been there is was busy and they charge a lot.............

Here's a link to an article about the closing. With it being on the other side of the state I have never been there, but they always had trailers on display at the Birch Run horse expo.

It is terrible but I sure hope the bank does an auction sale on their inventory

If anyone hears about an auction on their things, please post it! I would love to go and see what the trailers are selling for....... Yes i do feel horrible for the employee's. With today's economy, they must be hurting for another job. I wish all of them luck and my prayers are with them in the future.
