The first final chapter closes today. ❤️🐴
Lauralei’s last day of District 17 Meet #3 is here, and we can’t help but feel how quickly the years have passed. The days may have felt long, but these years in District 17 MIHA have gone by in the blink of an eye.
This District has been so much more than a place to compete. It has been where you grew, learned, worked, dreamed, persevered, and became the rider, teammate, and young woman you are today. It has witnessed the early mornings, the long days, the victories, the challenges, the tears, the laughter, and every unforgettable moment in between.
So today, soak it all up. Take in every ride, every cheer, every laugh with your teammates, every moment beside your horse, and every feeling this arena brings. Leave it all in the arena that built you over these past years. Give it everything you have, just as you always have.
Today isn’t just the end of a meet. It’s another page in a story that has shaped so much of who you are—and one of the final pages of your District 17 MIHA journey.
We are so incredibly proud of you, Lauralei. Go enjoy every second, hold these memories close, and let your heart be fully present for this final day.
One final day. One more chance to soak it all in. One more time to leave it all in the arena. ❤️
Good luck today, Lauralei.
