Mary-Haskins Gurganus Dressage

This is an MH Gurganus Dressge Clinic FUNDRAISER!!!  The purpose of this clinic is to raise money to send a Jr. rider in my area (Eastern NC) to ride with International Judge Olympic rider, and Hall of Fame Equestrian, Jessica Ransehousen.  My goal is to give back to those following in my footsteps and to provide an opportunity that will broaden their education and experience in Dressage! County Saddlery will be donating amazing 2011 products and services to be raffled off at the clinic!  Snacks and drinks will be provided.  $60 per ride plus a $10 grounds fee per day.   PLEASE SIGN UP AND SUPPORT THIS AWESOME CAUSE!!  Spots filling up fast!  Email, FB or call me to reserve your spots!!  

***IMPORTANT***

Those Jr. riders applying for this sponsorship should send me a short essay stating why you should be chosen to ride with Jessica!  I would also like a short bio about your riding career thus far.  I am seeking a DEDICATED and SERIOUS rider!  Someone looking to learn and improve their riding no matter what your level or skills!  Application deadline is April 1.

The Jessica clinic date is TBD but will be in late spring or early summer 2011 at Lynn Leath's BEAUTIFUL, North Star Training Center in Chapel Hill, NC.  The rider or riders chosen (depending on the money raised!!) will stay with me at my parents' lovely home in Greensboro, NC.  My parents have plenty of room for friends, coaches, and family members...and oh yeah, dogs!!  Greensboro is about a 40 minute drive from NSTC.  Not only can we cut costs on lodging expenses but we can also enjoy dinners together and maybe even carpool the horses...  All and all it will be a FUN and EDUCATIONAL experience for everyone!
