| Main Barn
It is a large red barn that has two hundred and twenty five (225) stalls. All of the stalls are large enough for a nineteen-hand draft horse. In between, each stall is a small aisle that gives you access to the horse’s hayrack without entering the stall. There is two entrances one on the North side and one on the south side both are horse friendly. A wash-rack is on the south end across from the clubhouse. The clubhouse has a refrigerator and a place to eat a long with other things. The feed room is on the north side across from the tack room. There are two barn dogs Missy a beagle mix and Boxer a germen shepherd, both are use to being around horses and love people. They usually are in the clubhouse. There is a loft where the hay is stored also extra tack and other things are stored up there.
Moderator: Crystal Portman | 2 | 21 | |
| Holding Barn
This is where New Members come to get their horses for the school year. You must make this your first post if you do not have a horse. To get a horse just make a post here and RP your selection that you have made. The horse will then be your new mount.
Moderator: Crystal Portman | 7 | 22 | |
| Paddock
There are two paddocks one for mares or for stallions. Geldings can go in either or, just keep the mares and studs apart. The fence surrounding the paddock is white and tall. There is paneling along the bottom of the fence to keep miniature ponies in the paddock and dogs out. Please tell any students or instructors if your horse is aggressive to people or other horses. Nobody wants to get bit or their horse injured.
Moderator: Crystal Portman | 1 | 41 | |
| Mess Hall
Otherwise known as the cafeteria. This is a large hall like room that has four long tables (one for each house) and there is a staff table at the head of the room. Announcements are made here also and once and awhile, there is a special event held here. Just like in Harry Potter.
Moderator: Crystal Portman | 1 | 17 | |
| Trails
There are four main trails that go through the woods in the back of Equinex, Apple Alley, River Bend, Woods Wandering, and Pine Crossing. Of course there are many other smaller trails that branch off of those. Some of these trails are used in some of the endurance courses and are a great way to teach your horse to go over water.
Moderator: Crystal Portman | 2 | 3 | |
| Vet/Doctor
No these are not in the same building. The Doctor’s building is next to the Purus House. The Doctor here deals with cases from minor cuts to wounds requiring stitches (hopefully that never comes up). The Doctor stays on Equinex all year round to deal with everything you may need. The Vet Building is located next to Equinex and is less than five minutes away from the barn. The Vet deals with everything from sick horses and whatever else to vet checks for the 3-day eventing or endurance.

| Arenas/Classes |
| Reproduction Barn/Round Pen
This barn is the smallest barn of them all in Equinex. It has ten stalls and eight foaling stalls. On the far end of the barn is a place for storing horse feed and there is a door that leads to the round pen. The round pen is the size of the average round pen. Here the colt starting classes take place, however, maybe used for round pen work if need be when classes are not in session.
Moderator: Crystal Portman | 2 | 3 | |
| Rescue Barn
Here the rescue horse classes take place. This barn has two sections in it, the new arrivals and the horses that students are working with. There are two paddocks behind the barn. There are also two arenas to work your horse. The layout of the barn is much like that of the main barn of Equinex except it has less stalls and stalls are on one end of the barn and the another to keep new arrivals and the other horses apart.

| Endurances Courses
There are a total of five endurance courses available for use to Equinex students and staff. The first is a ten-mile course with many river crossings and beautiful scenery. The second is a twenty-mile course than can double as a fifty-mile course. The last three are not even located on Equinex due to their size. These courses are mainly only used for showing and contest purposes however, you can get permission from a instructor to come to practice at any of these if you wish.

| Western/English Pleasure
These classes are held in a arena on the East side of Equinex near the Rescue barn. The arena itself looks like the riding arena this one was created so that the Riding arena could be used during student’s free time.

| Riding Arena
The riding area is about the size of two football fields so two horses can be worked at the same time. The arena has a dirt and sand floor and a white wood fence encloses it. There are also two gates, one on each side of the arena. On each side of the arena is two sets of bleachers just right for those of you that want to watch some one ride. The basic riding class is held here and this arena doubles as a flat work arena when no classes are in session for basic riding

The Fair Grounds is a fun place to go where you can have fun and forget about horses and school for awhile.

| Other Schools
Sometimes the equestrian teams will qualify to go to another school to compete. If and when this arises members that are not competing can play as a student of another school if you wish. It makes role-playing something like that more fun.
