Jaimie Holland will also be joining Julie and Maura at the open house.
Jaimie was a member of the 2007 Junior Gold medal winning team, and the 2008 Young Rider Bronze medal winning team!
I am also interested in the basics. What are the first things you teach the horse? Is it only Quarter Horses that do reining?

Pam Hope said… - Hi Andrea:
No I did not remember my password but Sherri & Dorothy put me on during the last reunion meeting & started me over again.
Its fun to have a response via my email - that was you! I need to sit down & navigate this site as there are many forums that intrigue me that I did not know existed.
Thanks for responding, Pam

- He severed his tendon last February. Electric fence. Hasn't ever been a problem til then. Took him to Dreamcrest while Kelly and Ian were away and started him up after a year off. Was great!! Tracking up and forward and awesome!!! With any luck I'd like to get him to a bronze dressage show this year. At least that's the plan!!!

Leslie Tunnicliff said… - So what's the new horses name and how wonderful is he/she?
As a DJ I'm willing to go anywhere! Sometimes overnight accom. is needed, and I haven't been flown anywhere yet, but I'm always up for an adventure.
I'm still enjoying taking care of Robin's barn, and she is wonderful about me having to go be a DJ. Someday I hope it will pay for a horse. But then the hard part comes in finding the right one.
And how is the group at Belinda's. Big changes or still pretty much the same?
I know John moved in but I hadn't heard much else. Say Hi for me.
