Thanks to everyone who made our show a fantastic event!

We had such a great day! It was our first time hosting a show with a diverse class list for youth and amateurs. The youth exhibitors truly impressed us with their sportsmanship and eagerness to try new things and learn.

A heartfelt thank you to our judge, Tracy Yost, for accepting our last-minute invitation and doing such an outstanding job! The kids truly appreciated her guidance and are eager to show off what they learned at the next event.

Thanks to Deb Packard, Liz Pride, and everyone else at Clay Station Horse Park for letting host our show at this excellent facility. And, of course, thanks to Deb for the wonderful lunch!

We hope to see all of you—and your friends—next year when we do this again.
