the Classic Three Day at Waredaca

Anyone who knows me knows just how much I love the sport of Eventing. Everything about the Classic Three Day at Waredaca brings me back to that soul deep love for my sport and everyone (horse and human) who is involved. From the family of competitors, coaches, grooms, parents, siblings and friends to the strongly dedicated masses of organizers, volunteers, officials, and tireless contributors, we get a thrilling weekend all built on a foundation of extreme love and dedication for the most awe inspiring companions we have– our horses.

The competitors at this event never let me down with their enthusiasm not only for their own learning and competitive experience but for that of their horses and their fellow competitors. The camaraderie cannot be beaten! That camaraderie extends right through to the people that show up each day to help keep the event moving in the right direction for the competitors and those folks never let anyone down! We have such an amazing team that works to exhaustion to put this on! No matter what, they meet every horse and rider with a smile, and joy to watch the horses really excel in this format!

Congratulations to ALL the competitors… I can’t wait for the next one!

Purina Horse Feed

There are a few reasons why Purina Horse Feed is my go-to feed:

🥕 Purina uses only the best ingredients to create their feeds, making sure that the horses get the nutrition that they need to perform their best

🍽 Purina has feed specifically tailored to the horses’ needs- from mares and foals to performance horses. It’s like having a personal chef for your horse!

🏆 The proof is in the research! Purina has been feeding champions with scientifically backed feeds for decades.

I would highly recommend checking Purina out for yourself! Bowmen’s has always been our supplier, and they do a wonderful job of helping us assess our horses’ needs!
