What a great weekend our riders had at the WVU summer show. With all of the High Point and Reserve High Point placings, the best ever may just be the riders getting the Sportmanship award. They do know how to cheer all of the riders on. Looking fordward to the July show. Thank you Crystal Smith and the WVU students for putting on another great show.

Well thats a wrap! Another All American Youth Horse Show in the books. We had some 1st timers and some veterans. Lots of construction, horses were thankfully fine with. Schedules were great and we got to see all of our riders compete. This is one of the most competitive horse shows some of these riders will ever do, and they love it. We started off the show with some Ranch Trail, everyone did a great job. Alaina and Casino walked away with 5th with their wonderful trail run. Maddie placed 1st in Western SMS, her 1st time making it to the championships, and place 5th in the championships. Maddie Charles and Willzy went on and placed 4th in Hunt SMS and ground poles, and then placed 2nd in the HUS. So Maddie got into 2 championship classes and finished 6th in HUS. Emme and Comet also had a great youth. You would never guess Comet is 24. He was certainly feeling his youthfulness. They placed 1st in Western Riding with a beautiful pattern, and 4th in HMS which was Emmes 1st time placing in that class at youth. Emme and Comet placed 2nd and 4th in Western Please sending them to the Championship class. Bella and Arnold, Peyton and Patrick, and Reagan Johnson and Shooter also competed and had some good rides.
Everyone did such a great job this weekend, and a great kick off to the summer shows.
