Last month, LHF took a trip to WEC - Ohio!

Along with the long and incredibly hot days, came tons of ribbons, so much personal growth and success, and so, so many laughs!

I am so proud of the whole team for always going above and beyond to keep all of our horses comfortable and feeling their best despite the heat. The support and sportsmanship within our team fills me with so much pride.

as summer comes to a close, we are reminiscing on our fun summer camp weeks at LHF! From beginners to IEA bootcamp, we did it all! The biggest thank you goes to our amazingly patient school horses for helping to teach the next generation and for creating the best summer memories for our LHF students πŸ’™β˜€οΈ

We ventured out last weekend and tried a new show circuit. Lots of learning and winning and so much fun was had!

Sophia and Peppy joined us from their home barn in WI and really leveled up doing more than they have ever done before. They had great rounds improving with each one and competed in their first derby!

Sarah and Eden had their first off property show with an impressive first derby finishing 2nd out of 22 and some amazing rounds in the beginner hunter and equitation including a win in the hunter flat and 4th in both classics.

Hayden took Twist (a last minute stand in) and delivered a better round each time they went in brining home CHAMPION in the long stirrup equitation sweeping the flats. Hayden also tried her hand at photography and captured some amazing moments that we will cherish forever.

Mildred and Jonas (also a stand in) took the tower hill show by storm. They also competed in their first derby with an impressive 6th out of 22 and enjoyed every minute of ride for ribbons! They were CHAMPION in the beginner Eq sweeping the division and WINNING the classic. Also with an impressive RESERVE in the beginner hunter division.

We had an amazing weekend filled with learning friendship and memories that will last us a lifetime.

Thank you to Arion for outfitting our school horses and keeping them feeling their best.

a few weeks ago, Lela and Miles ventured down to Kentucky to compete in their first Junior Hunter Finals!

They exceeded all expectations in a huge, pressure filled venue, earning themselves a 93.5 in their classic round, finishing 26th out of 70 rounds!

This pair was competing in the 2’3 divisions late last year and had never been to a rated show! They have grown exponentially together since then. To think this is just the beginning of their time together is so incredibly exciting! We are wishing a massive congratulations to Lela and the Hickey family on such a huge accomplishment.

Thank you to Tiffany and team Somerset for welcoming us with open arms and for helping us all season!

Thank you to Arion for outfitting Miles in the perfect saddle to make sure he can feel and perform his best!

Thank you to Winslow Photos for these memories that will last a lifetime πŸ’™

I’m not even sure where to begin with this weekend! πŸ’™ ❀️ πŸ’›

Despite the heat, team LHF had a phenomenal weekend at the PTS show!!
As always, the teamwork to get everybody ready to go and into the ring, and most importantly to keep everybody (especially the horses) comfortable and cool this weekend was amazing to watch! A huge thank you to everybody - even those who weren’t showing - who came or stayed to help and support everybody on such a warm day. Horsemanship always comes first, and I love watching our team stay true to that.

almost every pair this weekend was either new to showing, showing a new horse, or moving up a division! Even so, everybody had amazing success in the ring and even took home some pretty great ribbons!

here are just a few highlights..

⭐️ Our sweet girl Jazz got Linda back into the show ring after 40 years!! πŸ‘πŸΌ They even took home some great ribbons, this pair was truly such an inspiration to watch.

⭐️ Tilly took Gisele around her first PTS show this weekend, as well! They took home great placings as well, including a 2nd in the w/t! The future is bright!

⭐️ Hayden & Conan moved up to the long stirrup and reserve champed the hunter division with a WIN in the under saddle and a 2nd over fences!

⭐️ Jazz also showed Emma around her first PTS show and they champed the long stirrup eq division with a WIN in both flats as well as a 2nd in the over fences!

⭐️ Cayden had some fun with D in the show ring before he heads off on his next life adventure.. we are so sad to see Cayden go but it was super fun to watch him in the show ring this weekend! They even snagged a 4th in the schooling hunter hack out of 8!

⭐️ Natalia & Ezra made their move up to the 2’ and had great results!! They took home a 2nd in the hunter hack and a 4th in the over fences out of *17*! They also took home a 2nd in a competitive eq flat of 12! The improvement in this pair is astonishing!!!

⭐️ Morgan & Nelson also made the jump to the 2’ and had some really great rounds including a 4th out of 17 in a hunter jump round and a 6th in the eq flat! We are excited to watch this pair continue to grow throughout the season!

⭐️ Sarah & Eden conquered some personal challenges and nerves and put in some beautiful rounds including a 4th out of 17 in a hunter jump round and a 6th out of 14 in their eq jump round!!

⭐️ Mildred & Jonas showed a ton of improvement and confidence since their last show together in Sept including a 3rd out of 17 in the hunter hack as well 4th and 6th in the hunter over fences rounds!

⭐️ Sophia & Remi had a phenomenal weekend making huge improvements since their outing last month and took home champion in the modified eq division with a WIN in the over fences and a 2nd on the flat! They also reserve champed the lows with another WIN in the hack! They also finished 2nd out of 8 in the medal!

⭐️ Alizabeth took Ev around her first 2’6 division and showed improvement with every round! They finished 2nd in the hunter hack and 2nd in their eq jump round!!

⭐️ Alizabeth & Ozcar had beautiful and consistent rounds in the open hunters, building Ozcars confidence every step of the way! They even got themselves a 2nd out of 17 in their warm up!

Meanwhile at the first PTS show of the season at Cross Winds Farm, the LHF team also had an incredibly successful weekend! We are so lucky to have such a well run local show circuit right in our back yard at two of the best facilities! πŸ’™

highlights from this weekend included..

πŸ† Morgan and Nelson had their first show together as a pair after only 2 rides at home together! They had a clean sweep of the short stirrup equitation division, winning every class, and taking home the champ ribbon! They also finished with a reserve champ in the short stirrup hunter division, including a win in an over fences trip!

πŸ† Phoebe and Otis moved up a division and had beautiful and consistent rounds in every class! They even took home a 2nd in one of their Limit hunter rounds. So excited to see what else these two can tackle this year!

πŸ† Sophia and Remi had a big move up to the 2’6 and also finished up with some excellent rounds! Sophia came home with a 4th in her eq jump round and 5th in the flat out of a competitive group of 10!

extra shoutout to Kelsey and Alizabeth for all of their help this weekend in getting horses and humans ready to go for their classes! We couldn’t do it without your help πŸ’™
