Horse Show Saturday 4/25/09


Olympus Pony Club is hosting a dressage, jumping and combined test (dressage+show jumping) show at Paradise Ridge Park on Saturday, 4/25/09. Go watch! It'll be fun! Dressage tests will be ridden from 9:30-2:30, then jumping from 3:00-4:30 or finished. Emily is the course designer for the jumping, which is great fun! She's having a very nice crew of pony club members and families help set up the course, enjoy pizza and pop, and have a course walk late Friday afternoon. It's all about the learning and the fun, with the jumping thrown in for good measure!

Speaking of jumping, one of our students did her first jumping ever in her lesson this week! Fun! She rode Rio, and she did really well - never out of balance, learning about where to put her hands, how to get the horse to the fence in balance and straight, etc. Yea!!
