'Twas the Night before the Horse Show

'Twas the Night before the Horse Show

(Written by our guest blogger Bre)

Session Three 2016


    Today the girls have a jam-packed day of fun and preparation ahead of them, as we are nearing the home horse show tomorrow. This morning they all awoke well rested and ready for the day ahead. The lodge had an air of excitement and anticipation for the show on Saturday. For the girls that did not plan on showing there was no absence of purpose or excitement, as their fellow campers and roommates delegated their help in preparing and cheering them on at the show.

    This morning the girls hopped right onto room clean-up and hustled down to the barns to tack up for their lessons to hone in their skills for the show. After riding this morning, the girls with the assistance of their lesson instructors will gather all of their necessary show attire for tomorrow. This afternoon for their activity the girls will be cleaning their tack with the great, one and only... Pony Farm grandmother; Boo! Following tack cleaning the ladies will head out to the back porch of the lodge to polish and shine their show boots. In cessation of these two tasks the girls will be heading down to the pool to cool off from all their hard work.

    This evening's scheduled activity is the horse-less horse show, a Pony Farm favorite for many:) The girls love pretending to be their horse or pony and canter around the ring strutting their stuff!

In preparation for the super exciting and busy day Saturday, the girls will be "hitting the sack" an hour early tonight. We welcome you ALL to come and join us in supporting both our girls and the other local riders at tomorrow's horse show. Festivities will begin at about nine am and continue on throughout the day.
