March 2005

      Welcome to our first entry on the “News and Events” page!  Our biggest news is the completion of our new web site!  We hope everyone finds it informative, entertaining, and user friendly! 

     Despite the winter weather, there has been a lot of activity at the barn.  We braved the elements and attended many shows in December and January.  Congratulations to Meg Marchetti and Nick for leading the Zones in the Children’s Hunter Horse (older) so far this season ~ way to go Meg!  Congratulations also goes to Alex and Elvis, Dani and Wyatt, Ryan and Duke, & Courtney and Haley for their accomplishments in the Children’s Hunter Horse division!   Joining this successful group in the Children’s Hunter Pony division is Emily and her large pony “Rosie”.  Congratulations for your winning rounds!

    We have also seen success in the Walk-Trot-Canter, Equitation and Pre-Children’s Pony  divisions  … Ashley and Jet and Katelyn and Quincy are always in the top ribbons.  Good work girls!    

    No horse show would be complete without the winning team of Olivia and Magic ~ congratulations for bringing home the ribbons in Short Stirrup!  Our new little riders, Dani and Abby, are always winning and improving in the Walk-Trot division – keep up the good work!
 

     Sometimes our Adult Amateurs look like they are having way too much fun … Janine and Poptart and Patti and Duke have a great start to the year!  They are waiting for Jackie and Cal and Elizabeth and Rivendell to join them in giving Betsy a few more “gray hairs”!
 

     Accolades go to our green horses that have won Champion and Reserve Champion at their first shows of the year … way to go Elizabeth and Rivendell and Ryan and Sarah!  Look for Rivendell to make her Pre-Green debut this spring.    Jen and her new horse Lilly and Megan and her new horse Nikka have already won many ribbons in their divisions … best of luck to these new winning “teams”!
 

     We are always having fun here at Hollyhurst … whether we are showing together, taking lessons together, or just spending time in the barn together … there is never a dull moment!  Thanks to everyone for working as a team and always willing to lend a helping hand.  As always, many sincere thanks go to Betsy for patiently teaching us, supporting us, putting up with us, and making us laugh ~
