Hello Fellow Dressage Enthusiast,
2011 was a very productive year for our chapter. GCC put on 5 schooling shows, hosted the first annual GCC Schooling Show Championships in November, and held the Green Country Classic in June.
GCC also held the 2nd annual JR Camp at Lilly Pond Estates. The camp was a big success with a full camp of 20 young riders. Laurie Hedlund and Robin Hessel did a fantastic job as our main instructors. Patty Couch, Cheryl West and Richal Flannery also volunteered their time to teach and work with the campers. The JR Camp would not have been possible with out the help of Cynthia Ramsey, Cathy Orban, Christiana Vogel, Patty Couch, Cheryl West, Richal Flannery, Elizabeth Eaton, Carolyn Hoekstra, The Horse of Course, the Howard Family and Dr. White of Supulpa Equine Hospital. GCC plans to hold the 3rd annual JR Camp in October of 2012.
For those of you who do not know Anne Kuhns, she puts together all of the educational events that ODS puts on. This past year some of those events included the Lilo Fore New Test Symposium and the "L" Judge Program. Large amounts of work went into putting these productions on. Ann also Manages the Green Country Classic every June and the ODS Adult Camp. Unfortunately Ann plans on leaving us in the near future. Her husband has recently retired and they are thinking of moving to Kentucky. Anne is a Huge asset who will be greatly missed, and I would just like to take this opportunity to thank her for all of her hard work and dedication. You will be greatly missed!
