Hoofbeats riders competed in Dinner Theaters, Games Rallies, Drill Teams, Local and Regional shows in 2011!  The Hear the Beat Horse Show Series and the Dressage with a View Shows were extremely popular and our riders learned so much about teamwork, preparation, and goal setting as well as getting so much experience!    Thank you to everyone who shared themselves and made it such a lovely experience for everyone!

Hoofbeats celebrated the end of second session with our annual summer Games Rally!  Riders rode relay races until the storms drove us inside for an early Pot Luck Dinner hosted by Linda Clemmens and Rosa Clark.  After the storm, we went back out in the mud for lots more fun!  Thank you to all our fabulous volunteers who gave all their wonderful energy!
