"Stellan" gets a new home

Congratulations to Sarah Stocks in Michigan on her purchase of "Stellan", our homebred Swedish Warmblood gelding. Sarah plans a career as an "A" Circuit Hunter for Stellan. He will be traveling to his new home up north on Sunday October 24th. We will miss him very much, but know he is in good hands with Sarah and her Trainer, Alaina Parsons.
Thank you very much to Alaina for her help in making this purchase possible.
Good luck to Sarah and Stellan, we know your future is bright!!!

NWHA Regional Championships Show Report

Had a fantastic time at the Christy Anderson Memorial Regional Championship Walker Show last week in Asheville!
My gelding, "Corey", was Regional Champion at Third Level Dressage for the third year in a row, along with a third place in the difficult advanced Trail Obstacle class.
My mare, "Ryanne", was Regional Reserve Champion at Intro Level Dressage.
She also won her English Pleasure class.
Highlight of the show was me and Ryanne winning the Regional Queen contest. It was really fun riding our musical freestyle to the "Diamond Music", dedicated to the memory of Christy Anderson..
I really enjoyed having Ryanne's former owners, Ed and Teena Anderson, there with us to see Ryanne's wins. Really had a good time seeing all my Walking Horse friends and seeing them also win their classes. Congratulations to everyone!
