Fast forward to 2011 and she is completing her 3rd year riding on that very same Paint Horse circuit in Michigan competing with some of the best riders around in the 13 and Under and Novice Youth divisions in the all around events - showmanship, western pleasure, horsemanship, hunter under saddle, equitation, and trail.
She has a beautiful little Paint horse that loves her and does EVERYTHING she asks and does it with heart.
She has become a fierce competitor but also a good friend to so many other girls she competes with, offering them tips and offers to practice with them.
All those endless hours of practice and trailering to shows all over the state paid off. Equestrian Girl had set some high goals for herself with the highest being to make it into the Top 20 for 13 and under at the NATIONAL level. I'm more than proud to say...they did it!!!!! My beautiful little girl and her pony are #17!!!!
On top of that, they are top 3 for the Zone Award (Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky), and are the year end high point winners for Michigan Paint Horse Club for BOTH 13 and Under and Novice Youth!!! Team Stanley ROCKS!!
