Consulting Division:
Langer Equestrian Group Consulting has been involved in equestrian
consulting projects ranging from facility design and evaluation,
program analysis and development, to equestrian event design
and production. LEG’s principal’s, Larry and Marnye
Langer, build a team of talented and experienced associates
who meet the particular needs of each consulting project. As
a result, LEG Consulting brings a wide complement of skills
to any equestrian related project.
We are experienced in both private and public use facilities.
LEG Consulting has participated in the development of facilities
from ideas on cocktail napkins, to working with designers, architects,
engineers and management of large, comprehensive, multi-use
facilities. In addition, we analyze and evaluate existing facilities
and operations to suggest additions, modifications or improvements
in order to better meet their needs and functions.
LEG Consulting contributes to the success of a project through
analyzing and developing sound programs related to a facility
or an equestrian activity. Our analysis of facilities, programs,
and activities is enhanced by our strong financial background.
We have assisted groups with developing financial models, educational
programs, lesson and training programs, public use activities,
in addition to addressing community issues and appropriate uses
of a facility. Because of our experience in both private industry
and the public sector, we can meet and address the needs of
most situations when a consultant is required.
