2024 1st Quarterly Safety Initiative Winner

Allie Zorn Equestrian, Inc. Wins 2024 1st Quarterly Safety Initiative

Bogart, Georgia - April 25, 2024 - Congratulations to Allie Zorn Equestrian, Inc. of St. Simons Island, Georgia for winning AgriTrust of Georgia's Quarterly Safety Initiative.

In the early 2000s, Allie Zorn's first job was at the Stables at Frederica on St. Simons Island. 15 years later she returned to purchase the business which brought her back to her first place of employment. Including the Stables at Frederica, Allie Zorn Equestrian, Inc. operates 64 horse riding stables. In addition, Allie Zorn Equestrian offers boarding, and riding lessons on beaches, marshes, woods, and hosts various horse shows and other events.

Working with horses can be a dangerous occupation. If a 200-pound man can hurt you, imagine what a 1,000-pound animal can do. As prey animals, horses can react quickly and unpredictably to outrun or escape the assumed danger. Luckily, the crew at Allie Zorn Equestrian understands there are no shortcuts to training correctly, and the same applies to workplace safety. Whether around animals, machinery, or the general facilities, no amount of time saved by skimping over safety checks or thoroughness is worth the lives or health of any team member, animal, or client. Because of this safety mindset Allie Zorn Equestrian, Inc. was selected as the winner for the AgriTrust of Georgia's Quarterly Safety Initiative and has been presented with a check for $2,000.00.

AgriTrust of Georgia is a group self-insured workers' compensation fund that provides workers' compensation insurance coverage for the agricultural industry in Georgia. The Quarterly Safety Initiative is designed to encourage all fund members to participate in an active safety program.
