CancelHello! My name is Suzy Riding. I worked as the gate attendant at Soapstone Prairie from 2009 to 2017. I loved greeting guests, providing information on the trails and events, and working with the rangers in this position. I also created a newsletter for Soapstone called the Prairie Post as well as writing the history of Soapstone Prairie. I enjoyed doing both very much. I also provided living history events at Soapstone. History is my passion and today I own my own historical tour guide company.
