August 13th, 2025 show was a splish splash success!
🌧️ That's a Wrap! ☀️
Despite Mother Nature’s indecisive mood swings, we made it through—with soggy boots, sun-chasing dreams, and a whole lot of heart. Thank you all for your incredible flexibility, warm smiles, and go-with-the-flow spirit. You turned a weather rollercoaster into a celebration of community and resilience.
🎟️ Scratch Fee Raffle
To those who had to scratch due to the unpredictable weather -please plan a field trip day to come and school at the farm at no cost and know your names are going into a raffle for a free entry at our next show. It’s our way of showing you we understand your reasoning.
📊 Results Are Live!
You can now view the results online—go check out your scores at www.heatherridgefarm.org.
🌧️ About Those Slick Rings…
We hear you. The rain hit harder and earlier than forecasted, and we sincerely apologize for the slick conditions and any impact on ride quality.
⏱️ Jump Time Feedback Needed
We’d love your input on how to make jump scheduling smoother. Our current approximation method hasn’t been ideal, and we want to improve. Would set time blocks by jump height help? For example:
BN Riders - Completion time by 11:00
N Riders - Completion time by 12:00
This might reduce flexibility but could help with clarity and timely results. Please share your thoughts—we’re listening.
🐎 Pasture Party Apology
To anyone whose afternoon ride was disrupted by the two jubilant old-timers who decided to celebrate their freedom with a pasture gallop—we’re truly sorry! Their enthusiasm got the best of them, and we’ll be more mindful next time. Freedom was clearly appreciated!
