These meetings should take place at Countryside Elementary School and not the Riding Club Meeting Room because this is like D220 having their Board of Ed meetings in Barrington Education Association (220 Teachers Union) meeting room. It’s just not a comfortable environment for non-equestrians (Non-Union) at the Riding Center.
