I love sharing this journey with these people.
What a wonderful trip to wine country with absolutely fantastic horses, riders, and families. From learning to drive trailers to decorating our setup with roadside plants to setting up chore schedules that earned compliments from neighboring grooms to unbraiding horses in the streetlights, I could not be more proud of our team. Each partnership had struggles and successes and incredible growth throughout our week at .

We met so many new people and were astounded by the friendliness and kindness at this show - it’s feels like the way things used to (and should) be. Stalls were 12x12, matted, and safe. Footing was fantastic. Jumps were beautiful and well decorated. On site food was outstanding. Hospitality was on point. There are discounts for young horses, IEA members, medals finals riders. Every one of our horses had a discount of some sort and not a single horse left with a show bill over $800. Kudos to for doing things right and making showing fun, educational, and affordable.
