With very sad hearts we will be saying good-bye in June to our friend........Jen and Monaco.

Kaitlynn
When Kaitlynn came to her first lesson, she mounted trembling and held her breath through most of her lesson. Over the last year and a half, not only has she matured as a skilled horseman, she is maturing into a beautiful young lady. During the 2009 show season she has brought home multiple High Point Championships and we look forward the year end awards ceremony where she will be awarded over all high point winner.
