We then work with the following estimates of horse days per year: 10.630 (conservative), 17,717 (optimistic), and 25,600 (unrealistic). Given a number of horse days per year, we translate this into revenue per year_ by multiplying by dollars per horse day. As mentioned above, survey results indicate that stall fees are approximately one. half of revenue per horse. We confirmed this by examining an event analysis for a Dressage Horse Show conducted in Los Angeles in 2003. Horse stall revenue was 54% of total show rental. Bas'3d on this, we assume total revenue per horse is twice stall rental, even though some revenue is indirectly linked to the number of stalls rented (e.g. the facility rental). We must distinguish between stall fees charged to the participant from stall fees paid to the facility. Show organizers pay facility stall fees and charge participant stall fees. For the purposes of our study, we are only concerned with facifity stall fees. In our survey of WA equine organizations, Steve Busick asked the organization officers what stall rentals were at their current locations. Seven respondents said $25, while the other threeJisted $35, $40 and $65 per d~y. For the Los Angeles show we examined, stall fees to the facility ware $13.86 per horse day. Given this disparity In rental fees, we were unsure if our survey respondents we providing stall fees charged to particip'ants or charge fees paid to facilities. 111 order to resolve this we conducted a brief internet search of current facilities. The Kentucky Horse Pari< lists $20/night for the first night, and $15 per night thereafter. This Horse Park of New Jersey lists $30 for one day shows, $45 (total) for 2 or 3 day shows, and $10 per day thereafter. The North Carolina Eastern Agriculture Center charges between $10 and $15 per day depending on the number of days. Examining the entry forms of the Reining Horse Association NW, the per day stall fee to the competitor atvarious Northwest locations is uniformly $25 per night This information suggests that revenue to the facility is between $10 and $15. while &tall fees charged to 27
