Abby Turnacliff and Anne Bower's Ziggy Who finished the week on their dressage score to take home the 5th place individual ribbon.
Morgan Samuelson & Cindy Piper's Allie Cross Limerick were tied for 4th after dressage on her best dressage score yet, a 29! After a double clean cross country round she moved up a place, but with 2 rails in show jumping she ended up finishing 9th individually. That is the name of the game!
Kelsie Longe and Anita Boyd's Dance By Me (Scooter) had a good personal dressage score, a 39.5 and jumped clean around the XC and as she was thrilled galloping away from the last fence she forgot to go through the finish flags giving them a technical elimination. She was allowed to show jump and had a great round!
Jessie Longe & Milo had a successful week as well. One unfortunate runout on XC and a good look at the crowd in show jumping they added up 12 time faults in the SJ phase. Overall a GREAT learning experience for both Jessie and Milo!
Maddy Kalscheur & Skyla earned a 34.8 on their lovely dressage test, jumped double clear around the XC and only took down one rail in the show jumping to finish in 12th place.
James Day & Tucket were a pick up at the show that I helped coach. A very nice kid with a lovely little pony! They earned a 34.8 as well in the dressage but ran right past a fence on the XC giving them a technical elimination. James had a nice show jumping round to finish a great week!
Katy Turnacliff had a very successful week on my Lucy! Her horse unfortunately was lame so she wasn't going to be able to compete so I let her take Lucy down to the show. She was only able to put a few rides on her before going and competing her at 3rd level, which she was a little rusty at due to practicing her beginner novice and novice level movements for eventing! :) Katy did a great job on her and had a lot of fun! She helped her team to finish in 4th overall!
There were a lot of other kids down there competing as well! Becky & Audrey Longe competed in the Tetrathalon. Mia & Gabi Geraci competed in quiz. Katie Rossi was a stable manager for a Novice team. Everyone had a great learning experience and I was honored to be able to come down and coach a bunch of awesome kids! There were a lot of parents down there helping for the weekend as well - thank you to everyone!
