1st Show in 15 years!

Eeyore1215 · 11-01-2009, 09:39 PM

So last weekend (Oct. 25) was the first show (schooling show) that I have been to in about 15 years. I took my 5 year old Palimino and a Veteran Show horse. Both horse's were really well behaved for the most part. The Judge really liked my Palimino, but since this was his first show he didn't place very well. But I didn't place well in any classes. But that's okay, it was really more of a warm up for this up coming weekend! The Vetran Show horse and I are doing a Combined Training. This is what I am hoping that my palimino and I will do someday. So wish my luck on my

And if I could I would post the few pictures I have, however I can't ever figure out how to post them

Sorry this was so long, if you read this whole thing you get a big piece of chocolate cake!!!!!!

Congrats. on your first show in such a long time...it is more important to me to have fun at a show then bringing home a 75 cent piece of cloth.

People (not me..lol) in the Help forum could probably explain how to get a picture up.

Thanks, Like I said I was really there just for the ponies for experiance. This weekend I am very nervous about this combined training, the dressage test is killing me, circles are hard!!!!

Well said, Farmeress. I agree, as long as you had fun, it was a success! It's nearly impossible not to be nervous, but do try to enjoy yourself in the process. Good luck at your next one!
