Happy (belated) Gotchaversary Chester!
This past Sunday marks 1 year since Chester‘s arrival at Sacred Equestrians, and what a year it has been. You have learned so much, and our students have learned so much along with you. You are turning into quite the dressage horse. You handled your first cross country school beautifully. Your friendly demeanour has made you a barn favourite among the more advanced riders who have been working with you, but also parents and the younger kids who can’t resist giving you a cookie when passing by your stall.
Chester received his show name at our in house dressage show in June. All of our horses have the prefix “Sacred” as an ode to Brinna’s old two star horse Sacred Vow (Kip). Chester’s show name is: Sacred Wunjo (pronounced WOON-YO). Wunjo is the name of a rune which represents joy, fellowship, harmony, cooperation, and companionship (among other things).
We can’t wait to see what the future holds for you Sacred Wunjo!
