It is the company association Blomstrande Bygden, which together with social associations and other associations in the area around Hallabro, has taken the initiative to a separate riding house.

A meeting was held in Hallagården during Tuesday evening where more than 45 people showed up, writes Sydöstran. A dozen people were then interested in engaging in the future non-profit association, which aims to establish a riding house in the countryside.

The closest riding houses from Hallabro today, are in Tingsryd and Bräkne-Hoby.

- But there it is always full. It is difficult to get times simply, says Tommy Kalmteg, a member of Blomstrande Bygden to the newspaper.

No financial support from the municipality

The plan is for the new association to be operational before the end of the year. It has been discussed with Ronneby municipality about financing, but the future association will be able to seek financial means elsewhere.

- The municipality is positive about our plans, but has no opportunity to help us financially, says Tommy Kalmteg, member of the Blomstande Bygden to the South East.
