Dear Schneider Saddlery...
Thank you for keeping our winners cool AND making us feel the same way. πŸ΄πŸ†πŸ₯‡

Schneiders generously provides beautiful commemorative coolers to each winning horse for all classes at IEA National Finals. Winning exhibitors get to present their randomly assigned horse with a blue ribbon and cooler after each class for a job well done.

(We're not sure which competition is more fierce or proud.....the youth riders in the arena or the horse providers back at the barns.) πŸ‘€
