INDUSTRY PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIP ABOUT MHC’S
en to make a bigger impact, I founded Safe Haven Equine Warriors (SHEW) in 2014 with the hope of creating a second chance for horses in need,” shares Snyder. “As my role in the horse world continues to [transition], I believe fi rmly that I can be a voice for the voiceless horse through advocacy as well as leave a legacy that will impact future gen- erations through education and rescue.” SHEW, a 501(c)(3) non-profi t organization,
has assisted more than 50 horses since 2014, and the vast majority are now in adoptive homes. Snyder herself has been a member of MHC off and on over the decades. However, the business Safe Haven Equine Warriors became an offi cial new Industry Professional member of MHC this summer.
New member Edrich Lumber is no
stranger to the horse business. For over fi ve decades, horsemen in the Baltimore-Carroll-Howard area have been purchasing bedding from the mill located on Old Court Road in Ran- dallstown. Originally a dairy farm and was originally known as E.F. Stanfi eld & Sons, the family adapted their ag-busi-
ness to meet the community needs, and the dairy evolved into a lum- ber yard. The name evolved too–the family combined the fi rst names of the “& Sons” (EDward and RICHard), becoming fi rst Edrich Farms and then Edrich Lumber. Today, the business is run by Edward Stanfi eld’s daughter Sally Stan-
fi eld and Richard Stanfi eld’s son-in-law Doug Wolinski. For Stanfi eld, running the lumber mill is a later-in-life career shift that brings her life full circle. Stanfi eld was an avid show rider of Arabians, her competi- tion career peaking with AA Show Biz in 1998-2000 and with two na- tional and many regional championships in Purebred Country English Pleasure, Adult Amateur Owner to Ride (“AAOTR”), 40+: U.S. Arabian/ Half-Arabian Horse National Championships (Louisville, KY), Scotts- dale (AZ) Arabian/Half-Arabian Horse Championships; Region 4 (Sa- lem, OR), and Region 5 (Puyallup, WA) Arabian/Half-Arabian Champi- onships. (Photo with Im On Fire, Half-Arabian AAOTR Western Pleasure 87-88.) Stanfi eld then practiced disability law in Washington State, with a
focus on helping families of dependants who are developmentally de- layed and/or disabled get the services and education to which the chil- dren are entitled by law. In 2012, Stanfi eld returned to Maryland and joined the Law Offi ces Mark B Martin in Baltimore, still focussing on disability law. She began to winding down her legal practice in 2017. Edrich Lumber is now Stanfi eld’s full-time calling, and she is looking forward to rekindling her romance with horses.
