Tammi Nowicki with her knowledge in Reproduction, Joanne Bosma with her 98% success rate in AI breeding, Laurietta Oakleaf with her training and expertise, she is now offering clinics that will make Renaissance Equine Center a Top establishment among horse owners and trainers, and not to forget the backbone of our farm, Stephanie Wilgus with her college degree from OSU-Wooster in farm management/breeding. She has interned and learned to train here at the farm. Her husband, Nate Wilgus, handles the maintenance and works on our computers. We are trying to purchase an Equine Facility in Western OH which will allow us to start an Equine training, breeding, boarding, and lesson program. As well as be able to offer clinics from Laurietta Oakleaf and other top clinicians. We are going to be working towards Laurietta's lifetime dream of opening up a school for Natural Horsemanship, ParaEquestrian, and for people to learn about the foundation of horses. |
| Joanne Bosma: Breeder Joanne Bosma has been a nurse for well over 20 years and within the last 5 years has taken her nursing skills a step further. She went to OSU to take courses in Artificial Insemination and next fall, 2008, will be taking courses at Colorado State University in Embryo Transfer. She will also be getting her certificate in Stallion collection as well. She has a very good success rate in Cooled and Frozen Artificial Insemination which a couple Equine Vets will vouch for in Michigan to her success rate, but her prices are reasonable. Renaissance Equine Center will be offering this coming year Frozen and Cooled AI for your mare of any breed, although specializes in Friesians and Warmbloods. Please call us early enough so that we can schedule you in for this coming year. Please call us or email us for prices. Joanne's Email |
