A schooling show was held on Saturday, May 30, 2009 at Creek Hollow Ranch in Ramona, Ca. Two of our students, Jenna on Annie and Carol on Lance competed at the Introductory Level. It was both of the pairs first show together and they both did amazing! Jenna and Annie received a 73% and and 82% and Carol and Lance received a 63% and a 69%.
We are so proud of both of them! The Creek Hollow Ranch schooling shows are super affordable and are a wonderful way to get out in the ring and have fun. We all need to support these small shows in order to keep them around!!!
For those of you interested my ride times at Creek Hollow are 9:30 and 9:47 on Sunday May 10th. Maybe we’ll see you there for our ‘get back to it’ show!! Elizabeth
Katie needs funding to transport Millenium to Gladstone New Jersey. She is in a qualifying position to take part in the 2009 USEF Festival of Champions which invites the top 12 riders in the country, at their level to compete in this prestigeous event. Unfortunately the cost to fly him there is very high. She is seeking sponsors to help defer the cost. Ground transport that far would be very taxing in the heat for so many days. Please see the sponsorship link to read the letter she is sending out in hopes of raising the funds for travel.
Del Mar was a success with Katie and Milo coming away with a 65.1 average to be applied toward her championship standings. We had a lot of fun up there and were sad to have to say good bye to Debbie and the crew. Katie followed them back to LA, got them packed and off to Idaho in the following couple days. MIlo came home with me and now Katie too it here for a while. We plan on going to another qualifying show, which is why she stayed in Ca. I am not complaining, I am enjoying them both!
Just prior to Del Mar I had the opportunity to go back up and have 2 more lessons with Debbie! What a treat!! This weekend I am teaching a clinic in Ramona. Its not too late to join in! Then Sunday I am taking Artisan out for his first show in ages at Creek Hollow. It should be fun!
