Talent, hard work and never saying no: these have been the key ingredients to West Coast eventer Amber Birtcil’s success as a competitor and trainer. That included saying yes to the rigors of the eventing world when she was 18 and leaving behind a successful Junior career in the hunter-jumper ranks. It also meant saying yes, despite the odds, to returning to competition and training after a catastrophic accident two years ago.

Not every rider leaves a barn because of something big. Sometimes, they just slowly disappear. They stop asking questions. Then they stop lingering after lessons or feeling excited to go to the barn. Eventually, they stop coming altogether.

“The easiest way to improve your score and avoid creating an anxious environment for your horse is by focusing on your thoughts and the actions you're creating from them. By getting your head in the game and taking control of your thoughts and emotions, you'll have a better chance at accurately communicating with your horse in, and outside of, the show pen.”

Get the ponies’ floaties out. You may need them this week. 🌧

RAINFALL TOTALS INCREASING 🌧️
As more data has come in throughout the day on how the tropics will impact our area later this week, we’ve increased our forecast rainfall totals. Much of north Georgia is in line to see up to 2.5 inches of rain over the next 5 days. South Atlanta, 3 to 5 inch totals are possible. If the axis of heaviest rain shifts northward a bit, our rainfall totals could further increase. This will all be dependent on the eventual path of PTC One and its remnants.

“Because trail rides often include a few scary situations, at least from the horse’s perspective, teaching your horse that he needs to listen to your aids and trust you as his leader, no matter where you are, can help. Both of those behaviors translate to more responsiveness in the arena and a better bond with your horse.”
