2014 Results

Feb 23, 2014 was our annual KNOW DOWN--we had to postpone it from earlier in Feb due to all the snow !  But we still had a great time and learned a lot.

May 17, 2014 was our first of 3 schooling shows, held here at Wildwin.  Lots of riders doing a great job !!

May 25, 2014 Dressage Show at Coventry in Washington PA.  Shania rode Joy in their first show as a new team--Winning both their Intro Tests with scores in the 60's.  And Kristen and Coco did their first show as a new team--wtih this being Kristen's first show ever.  Great Rides!!! 

May 32, 2014 Hunter/Jumper at Creekside Stable in Blairsville PA.  We had 8 horses there, and 11 riders and a whole bunch of supporters!!!  Go to the picture page to see highlights of this day ! Including Graysen's Championship with HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW? and Emily's Reserve with CLARKE

June 7 and 8 2014 Grand Haven Rated Dressage Show.  Michelle competed on ELLIOT.  They did OK !  They won both their Training Level Tests with a 70.6 and a 75.2 % (there were approx 200 rides at this show--and only 12 rides scored in the 70's).  This qualified them for the GAIG Championships which will be held at the KY HORSE PARK in Lexington, KY in October.  They also competed at First Level and scored in the mid 60's placing 3rd in both those tests.  They need one more score to qualify for first level at the GAIG's (hopefully Morven in Sept !).  They also won the High % Ride for Training Level with their 75.2% and it was also the HIGH % ride of the ENTIRE 2 day show.  Did i mention that Elliott is only 5 years old?

6-22-14 Three riders competed at HORSE ON COURSE Hunter Show in Saxonburg, PA.  Kaitlyn on ZIRA won the CHAMPIONSHIP in a walk/trot ground rails division.  Greyson on HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW won the RESERVE CHAMPIONSHIP in that same division.  And Alyssa with IMPRESSIVE HAWKE had great rides in the 18" Hunter Division with 1 First, 2 Seconds, and 3 Fourths.  Great Job ladies !!

6-29-14 Three riders competed at COVENTRY EQUESTRIAN CENTER in Washington, PA.  Chris on I'M THE MAN (aka Scout) did their very first dressage show ever.  To say Scout was a little apprehensive is an understatement!  But Chris did a wonderful job riding him thru it.  Kristen on WINNING WAYS (aka Coco) placed 2nd in two large classes, with scores in the low 60's.  Michelle rode CHERRY COLA in Cherry's first dressage test ever, at Training 1 and 2.  They won both their large classes with scores in the mid 60's and also won the ADULT HIGH % TRAINING LEVEL RIDE.  Another good day !!

And then there were technical/computer issues--so the results were not put up for the remainder of the 2014 show season. Suffice to say though we had an amazing year--finishing off with riders competing in both the CBLM DRESSAGE CHAMPIONSHIPS IN VA and the GAIG DRESSAGE CHAMPIONSHIPS at the KY HORSE PARK. Followed by a wonderful Awards Banquet in November, 2014. Looking forward to 2015
