"Where Memories Begin" Kevin, Anne, Alise, Dan & Dacia Dykstra
Decorah, Iowa 563-380-4357
www.sweetmemoriesstables.com

Our mission is facilitate opportunities for youth and adults to create memories though pony or horse experiences. This may be through the sale of a pony, riding lessons or the financing of YOUR project.

Sweet Memories is standing RY Major Equity. Watch Major and Alise and imagine his unbelievable great disposition in your ponies. He presents a great opportunity to out-cross with all of your mares from other performance brood lines.

Major is out of Invested Equity, a son of The Invester. Our goal is to increase the odds of raising champions by breeding mares who can have successful show careers.

In 2007, we decided to name all our POA's with the sir-name "Dutch".  Thus from this time on you will know that any "Dutch" pony comes from Sweet Memories Stables and the Dykstra's!

Several ponies remain for sale.

OUR HISTORY

IN THE NEWS

OUR FARM

Alise and Dacia have both been riding POA's for years. Over that time ponies have come and gone, pickup and trailers have changed, and our facilities have grown and expanded until we formalized our stable's name. Thus Sweet Memories Stables was created. We actually thank Christine Mc Cann who came up with the name during a church sermon (given by our pastor, her husband.) The name is in memory of Silvia, Silver Sweet. After Silvia's extremely successful show career in 2004, she suddenly passed away.
