The FEI Junior Competition Countdown - 5 Days to
Go!
The Canadian FEI Junior Dressage Training Camp ended
successfully on Friday, June 22, and the long journey
to Ohio began on Saturday, June 23 at 10 am.
The two International Horse Transport trailers were
filled to the brim with hundreds of bales of hay and
shavings, feed, equipment, trunks, and horse gizmos
for the eleven-hour trip, and ten-day stay at Paxton
Farms, Batavia, Ohio. Oh yes, and twelve horses too!!
None of this would have happened without the tremendous
support provided by Dr. Vicki Pringle, Dr. Alan Young,
Anne Welch, and Jacqueline Brooks of York Equestrian
Centre, Cedar Valley, Ontario. All horses and humans
made the trip in good health and good spirits, and thanks
to the organizational talents of Nancy McMahon, Stable
Manager, the Canadian stabling area immediately became
"home" with the addition of many Canadian flags, good
signage, and well-equipped tack and office areas. Training
resumes on Monday, after a much-needed day of rest.
