EC Readers’ Most Memorable Moments of 2019

Filed under: Featured,Show Results & Gallery |     

Allison Pickles-Ott- “The pictures The Equine Chronicle took of my daughter, Eleanor, at Congress are some of my all time favorite. They captured exactly how she treats this mare every day, win or lose. Her goal in January of 2019 was to be able to compete at the Congress. When we told her she was able to go, she came up with a new goal to place just once. She achieved what most people dream of, winning the Congress.”

With horse shows put on hold for the foreseeable future, many of us are feeling the stay-at-home blues. This is a natural and perfectly normal reaction. But, it’s important to remember that everyone is in the same boat. We’re all in this together.

While most of us are busy working at home to keep up our fitness levels and practice foundational skills so we will be ready when the horse shows resume, you still might need some extra motivation. Something that’s helpful for any athlete is to reflect on their previous successes to use as fuel for upcoming events. So, we reached out to our Equine Chronicle fans on Facebook to share their most memorable moments of 2019.

We received A LOT of responses. Scroll below to relive all the good memories!

Merilie Dawn Blickenstaff- “If I never win anything again this meant the world to me! I always wanted to compete at this show and do good. I was beyond blessed last June 2019 with more than I ever imagined could happen. My horse, Best Design Yet, at his six show (his first year ever showing at six years old) and my comeback year after four years out of the show pen. So proud and blessed.”
