Despite the cool rain on Sunday, Team Affleck made the trip down to Homer for the Canter for a Cure Hunter Pace to support our dear friend, Alice Trudeau in her struggle against colon cancer. This was Hailey’s first hunter pace and she did an amazing job on Dr.Kiltz’s horse, Geronimo. This was also Molly’s first hunter pace. She and Ginger actually lead most of the way! Cindy was also on our team on her cute pony, Rosey and I rode Fine Behind. The scenery on the pace was breathtaking and we had a blast. The organizers of the event deserve recognition as they did a wonderful job preparing the trails, jumps, as well as tons of prizes, warm food, and a bright, cheeful atmosphere! We look forward to the next pace they are hosting on Sept. 25th. We don’t know the results of this pace yet, but look for them next week.

Vanessa won two out of the three Leadline classes at the BHA Hunter Horse Show on Sunday and ended up winning the Reserve Grand Championship! Congrats Vanessa!
Molly and Ginger had their most consistant show of the year of so far, winning ribbons in all three flat classes and in both jumping classes. I’m very proud of what this pair has accomplished!

The folks at the SPCA brought out several dogs and an adorable kitten that are up for adoption. Thank you to the hundreds of people who came out on a such a beautiful day to enjoy the music of Dusty Pas’cal, entertainment from Jason the magician, face painting, food, and horseback riding. Also a big thank you to all that donated their time, energy, and generous gifts to this wonderful cause.

Myself on Step ‘N Fetch It
This weekend I was able to compete in the Hunter Derby at the Summer in Skaneateles Horse Show! I placed 6th out of 14 entries. The Hunter Derby was the feature event on Saturday’s schedule. It took place out on the grass hunt field and had a beautiful course of jumps set up. The event had two rounds; those who scored high enough on their first round were called back for a shortened second round. The second round course had very tricky turns, a trot jump, and a gallop jump. Everyone had a great time and I can not wait to ride in more of these events!
