Congratulations Cali on your purchase of Bayside! We are also happy that CJ will be staying with us a while longer and will be enjoyed by both Jessica B and Valkyrie.

The annual Folly Classic Invitational Horse show will be held this Saturday and Sunday. Always beautifully decorated, the show will offer not only the classic format rounds for the horse competitors, but also a dog costume class as well as a silent "tea cup" auction of generously donated goods and packages. All proceeds will benefit the Hole In The Wall Gang camp.

From Valkyrie we expect to see Chelsea/Mac, Melissa/Louie, Erica/Oliver, Jessica/Andy, Grace/Wolf, and Michael/Markus. Come on out and encourage our Valkyrie competitors at this final outdoor competition!

Yesterday's Wild Aire show was a lot of fun for all the Valkyrie Competitors. With no less than eight horses/ten riders participating, Valkyrie surely left an impression! Everyone, including the numerous Valkyrie fans and family, enjoyed the gorgeous summer weather and friendly atmosphere that is always part of the Wild Aire competitions.

There were too many ribbons and good performances to write about everything, but some highlights: Jodi and Cyrus had a wonderful first show, with Cyrus and Jodi both flatting out like old pros. Charlie was a very good boy earning ribbons with both Heavon and Janet aboard. Andrew was also at his first show and won a championship equitation class and a walk/trot poles class with Danny. Way to go Andrew! Ally was champion in the short-long stirrup division and Ashley won the reserve. Cali and CJ took home a good share of the ribbons as well. Jessica B and CJ also put in some good rounds in the higher division. Grace had some exciting moments with Reilly, and Erica and Oliver are prepped for next week's Folly Classic.

Congratulations everyone!
