Westernaires is a precision mounted drill riding group, this blog was used to record my time at Westernaires. I leased a 21 year old quarter horse draft mix named Bo. Prior I rented and rode Stretch, Chey, and GoldDust. My teams were T1, J1 (Top Junior),White Star (Captain), Colorado Stampede (Captain), Nighthorse Rangers, Royal Rangers, Red Liberty, Red Ropes, White Vaulting, White Batons, Jr. Instructor, and Jr. Wrangler. I now ride on the Evergreen Drill Team since I graduated in 2017

New Classes!
So I had a conflict for BL2 and my first WV ride. I would have had Trinidad for Liberty so that was a huge bummer. For White Vaulting we had to groom. My partner and I got Casper #25. She was great for grooming. We rode at 9 so I had to sit around for awhile with nothing to do. We got to the White Arena and mounted up. I rode tricks for warm ups. It went pretty well :) We pulled into the center and got initiated into White Vaulting with the chicken dance. It was really fun. Then I switched to base rider for the two drills. We rode the butt vaulting positions it was really fun! The team was so kind and welcoming and it really made me ease into it more. At 11 was my first White Batons class. I definitely need to get used to the speed but it wasn't too bad! Mostly it was costuming. We tried on our skirts and they are really fun! Then I finally got to go to ropes at 1! We welcomed the new girls and started teaching them how to spin the big ropes. I worked on Texas Skip as well. Danielle also called me over to try butterfly with a slip honda. Basically I was the guinea pig for new red rope tricks lol. I stayed an extra half hour and practiced. Then I filmed a trick class. I also stayed and helped Blue Vaulting. I got to hop on Rebel bareback. It was a good day
