Kylie and I got to visit the
Capital on Youth Participation Day where she was awarded a certificate for winning the Youth Country Pleasure Racking Championship at NWGHA State in 2011. It was quite an honor to meet the Governor and see all the riders recognized for their accomplishments.Filed under camp, family cookout, horse jumping, horse riding, horse riding camps by

Wow, so much going on; end of season shows, trail rides, birthday parties and new horses arriving at the farm. We were sad to say good-bye to Kiwi! She went home to her owners. I know Sara was happy to have her back and ready to start riding her again.
We want to welcome Sugar and Busta to the farm. Sugar is a rescued Mustang who needs lots of love and carrots. Busta has come down from Ohio. He is an Arab who has shown dressage in the past and a very sweet boy! Snickers will be arriving at the end of the month. He is going to take Sherle to State in the running events!! Go, Sherle!!
HCS has a new horse – Chance! He is too cute, goes English or Western and we are excited to add him to our lesson program.
Our RIFNA team is up and running! We will have our first meet in December over the holidays.
