Chatham’s most popular equine facility has once again been awarded for providing an innovative tourism experience.
TJ Stables was presented the 2021 Innovative Experience of the Year award during the annual Southern Ontario Tourism Conference in Toronto on Wednesday.
The award marks the second time TJ Stables has been recognized for its “Awaken Your Spirit” Ojibwe Spirit Horse encounter, which allows visitors to learn about First Nations and Metis cultures while being among the historic Ojibwe Spirit Horses.
“We truly are honoured to be presented with this award. These little ponies have so much to share and we are humbled to be able to be a part of something so unique,” said TJ Stables co-owner Terry Jenkins in a news release.
Previously in October, TJ Stables was also presented the Indigenous Tourism Award for Innovation at the Tourism Association of Ontario Summit for the same experience, which has been operating since June of 2021.
