High Prairie Spring Final ~ May 27-30

Caylin would not settle for anything but tricolor ribbons for this Spring series at the Colorado Horse Park. The last week she cantered away with not one but two Champion ribbons. The divisions: Equitation 11 & under and Children's Pony Hunter. Congratulations Caylin & Angel & Mary! Caylin would not have done this well if it weren't for Mary. That is the truth!

First Dressage show for Erin Ellingson & Rocky

Erin Ellingsons competed in her first dressage show. She did awesome trotting away with a third place and two fifth place ribbons. This was beautiful considering she was competing against 12 entries & some adults. Congratulations to Rocky for being the only North Woods Farm pony to compete in Dressage and Hunters. That is one talented pony!!!

FYI~ Amy is leading in the points of Beginner Pony Eq.

Shannan makes a Clean Sweep in the Medals!!

Shannan made a clean sweep and won "ALL" the Adult Medals at the High Prairie Horse Show: the CHJA Adult, the Ruth Ayers, and the Dorothy Roberts! She is the equitation Queen! Shannan, you KNOW how to ride! Weither it be a green horse, bucking pony or very fancy stallion German Warmblood you get the job done, while making it look easy. Congratulations E.Q. (Equitation Queen)!!

This little girl would rather clean her pony's stall than clean her room.
