The Person that holds it all together! |
Brian Nowak, Owner
|
|
|
While not a horseman per se, Brian has been pivotal in design and development of Priestfield West. His design input has emphasized safety, ergonomics and aesthetics (and electronic gadgets - be warned!) and it has molded the initial concept of "somewhere to ride" into an outstanding boarding facility. He will be responsible for many aspects of maintenance and future facilities development (but "absolutely no cleaning stalls"!) and will be our "objective eye" for any of our new ideas! |
