Oakhurst Farm was very touched to accept one of the Laframboise Family Legacy Awards presented at Wesley Clover Parks recently during the Ottawa Horse Trials. Congratulations to Oakhurst Farm founders Bob & Joan Allum - it was a lovely surprise to commemorate their love for eventing - which is long-lasting and continues in the Oakhurst family - and congratulations to the juniors recognized for awards as well! Huge thanks to the Laframboise family for creating and sharing these recognition awards.

New eventers in Newfoundland!!! Look out Canadian Eventers, there’s some new kids joining the game - and they came to play! #nfldersareeventers #thisisgrassrootseventing

The Team Oakhurst matching toques are being worn by Joan and Jag today! Joan is the “invoices ‘r us” behind the scenes for the farm and has a real love for Thoroughbreds 🐎(if you enter an OTTB in one of our competitions, you’d better be ready to discuss their lineage!) and chose Oakhurst schoolhorse Jag (Knight in a Jag) to partner with for a toque pic. Jag is an Ontario bred TB and at almost 21, is a schoolmaster who is always up for some fun - especially if it involves galloping 😎 Jag’s bonnet: ER Bonnets #ascotknightgoldenjagua #teamoakhurst #starting2022withasmile

Elodie Derouin & Levi are the Team Oakhurst boarders with matching toques today! Elodie and Levi are pretty new to the Oakhurst Team, but we are all excited to see where this year of eventing will take them - we’ll keep working on Levi’s selfie game too - he forgot to 😊 💙💛 Levi’s bonnet: ER Bonnets #teamoakhurst #canadianeventing #starting2022withstyle

The Hubley squad is rocking their matching Team Oakhurst toques today! Danica & Alex share riding duties (sisters who never squabble!) keeping Finn fit and happy. We’re looking forward to seeing them continue enjoying Finn in 2022 - rumor is Finn may be part of the Oakhurst Dressage Team this summer…💃🐴💛💙 Finn’s bonnet: ER Bonnets #teamoakhurst #sisterteamworkforthewin #starting2022instyle

🥶 it’s a frosty start this morning, but that won’t slow these two down! Rocking their matching Team Oakhurst toques today are Keelin & Tess (Contesse owned by Alexa Bresnahan) This pair evented together in 2021 and we’re looking forward to seeing where they go in 2022 💙💛 Tess’s bonnet: ER Bonnets #teamoakhurst #cdneventers #starting2022withasmile

The team Oakhurst duo sporting matching toques today are Jenna and Babette! Jenna Mayhew & Babette (Black Pearl) had a summer of fun together last year and are looking forward to getting out to more dressage shows and events in 2022! 💙💛 Babette’s bonnet: ER Bonnets #teamoakhurst #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #starting2022instyle

Shannon and Lakes (Ten Lakes) are staying warm in their matching team Oakhurst toques today! Shannon and Lakes completed their first Intermediate event in 2021 🎉 and can’t wait to get back out there and 🏇 on the grass in the ☀️ again in 2022! We can’t wait to see what’s next for this pair 😎 #teamoakhurst #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #starting2022withasmile

Keeping warm this morning in our Team Oakhurst toques - Coach Helen and schoolie Lollipop 🍭! Today is #bellletstalk day - If you are stressed, anxious or struggling, coaches Ruth and Helen are here for you. The last few years has been tough but we’re in this together. Let us know if you need help. *Lollipop declined to stand up for the pic in her ER Bonnets - but she’s pretty sure no one is riding her when it’s this cold anyway, and some days you just need to sleep in!🥶 #teamoakhurst #strongertogether #starting2022withpositivity💪🙏❣️

Mira & Evie are our Oakhurst Team members keeping warm in their matching toques today! Mira took a little time off from eventing last year to make a human but little Harris is so cute 🥰 it’s a valid excuse! She’s back in the saddle now and having fun with her favourite🦄 and we’re sure Team Oakhurst will have Harris learning to groom Evie in no time 💙💛 Evie’s bonnet: ER Bonnets #teamoakhurst #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #starting2022withasmile

Emma & Felix (owned by Andrea Kniewasser ) look warm in their matching Team Oakhurst toques! 💙💛 Emma and Felix are working on their fancy prancing moves 💃🕺- hoping to make their dressage debut in 2022 as they work towards Emma’s goal of becoming a dressage judge! Emma is also the creator of all of the🐴 bonnets with her side gig ER Bonnets ⭐️ #teamoakhurst #oakhurstdressageteamcaptain #starting2022instyle
