Riding Instructors - Team Leaders
Scout Magill - Western - All Levels
Hello, my name is Scout Magill and I have been a riding instructor here at Hayden Acres for the past few years, with a passion for helping young and older riders grow, both in and out of the saddle. I have 15+ years experience to offer-from barrels, cow work, training from the ground up and more.
I believe in challenging folks to step up, work hard, and respect the horses they ride. I know that learning isn't always easy, but with a little grit and determination, you not only become better riders, you can discover your own strengths and perseverance.

Kenzie Brown - WESTERN - ALL LEVELS
I’ve been riding horses since I was two years old and have been training my own horses for the past five years.

My experience spans multiple rodeo disciplines, and I’ve competed in some of the biggest barrel races across the state. With a strong foundation and a love for horsemanship, I’m confident teaching riders from beginner to intermediate and advanced levels.”
