Barb Carr

Barb Carr, a life-long equestrian, has been a member of the Equestrian Council for many years. She has especially fond memories of one of the earlier events she participated in with her daughter (the Westminster Fallfest Parade) as well as two Hunter Paces at the Equestrian Center, trail rides and more recently, trail work days.

In response to, “Why is the Equestrian Council and Equestrian Center important?’ she indicated, “It’s important to provide an organization and facility that can involve all disciplines of equestrian recreation and education.”  In 2025 Barb volunteered for the position of Equestrian Center Manager and enjoys developing relationships with members using the Equestrian Center as well as organizations renting the Equestrian Center.

As owner of Sew What horse blanket washing and repair service since 2010, her community involvement includes co-founder of Ride for Responders in 2022 whose purpose is to give back to local first responders.

The Carroll County Equestrian Council recognizes Barb Carr as their Volunteer of the Year 2025.
