Today was Interclub and I volunteered and helped organize classes. We got to be in dress reds! I also watched nighthorse preform. Stretch's riders flag boot broke and the flag fell through it getting trapped underneath stretch. The rider stayed on but a posse man was trampled stopping him. Everyone walked away with minor injuries and nothing broken. It was definitely scary and hard to watch but after that the drill went great. It made me super excited for Estes park. The competition went great and I had fun helping the kids :)
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

Last ride before summer and Interclub!
Wow. Where do I start. Saturday was kind of sucky because I couldn't ride or participate in many of my classes...wisdom teeth surgery sucks. I got 95% on our Crimson and lace final. I was so mad at myself. I've never failed a sequence and I messed up one number so I lost all 10 points which is why I only got 95 :( ugh I could kick myself! Then we took the combined final. It was hard! You had to ready sooooo carefully. Then we watched the precisionette ride. I had ropes at 11 but almost the whole team had conflicts so we just cancelled. I did one walk through with my team but then my instructor wanted me to sit out. We then got our hats (I only tried mine on because I wasn't riding) so we we could wear them at the ride to make sure they won't come off at show. Batons had a mock practice at 1 for girls like me who hadn't been in months! Royal I sat in the crows nest. It was so hard not riding. Royal rode four BEAUTIFUL drills which didn't make my life any easier Hahahaha but I am so excited to ride on Wednesday. I'm terrified to see who I'll have. Then we bade farewell to our monitor who was retiring.
