Pleasant travels to Children's Benefit Horse Show brings successes back to CT!





Congratulations riders! We are returning from a wonderful trip to Quentin PA for the 19th annual Children's Benefit Horse Show.



Elizabeth McCracken debuted Mr. Rockefeller in his first Country Pleasure drive against the best of competition, garnering a top 3 ribbon and a Reserve Grand Championship- already a stunning combination with only a few short weeks together.

Annie and DB earned top 3 finishes in the show's largest and most competitive division with a reserve tie in the Open Adult pleasure divisions to boot. Go Annie!



Patti and Hero earned two blues in the Saturday morning Academy divisions- you can't miss this combination (or Patti's radiant smile), great job!





We happily motored thru the countryside when we weren't inside the ingate on the stonedust of the beautiful Quentin Riding Club's show ring- the great hospitality of the show committee and the bounty of that Lancaster County has to offer made it a great trip.
