I was very touched to see the following post from Arvidson Garceau on the Five Stars Farm page. Thank you, Heidi, for your thoughtful and informative words:

“5 stars for Five Stars Farm and Mary Howard!

"Our journey with Mary started about 3 1/2 years ago. Our daughter’s thirst for learning and Mary’s endless supply of knowledge, experience and success through the highest levels of dressage took our daughter from training level to earning her Silver Medal in just two show seasons. Mary listened to our daughter’s goals/dreams, traveled the country to find the perfect horse for her, and made those goals a reality.

"Mary possesses a stellar resume: Gold Medalist at the Pan-American Games, short-listed rider for the United States Olympic dressage team, successful competitor in Europe and the USA, and highly respected teacher and trainer. Her students have competed successfully at all levels including Grand Prix, and many have won their Bronze, Silver and Gold medals while working with her.

"Whether you’re looking to become a better rider, fine tune your skills or pursue your medals, Mary has a program to fit your needs. Her dedication to happy horses, the sport of dressage, and her clients is unwavering. She runs a quiet, no drama barn that operates like a finely tuned clock. Everyone is so kind and inviting, and you feel at home when you’re there. I give Five Stars Farm a five star review!”

Very proud of my two youngest clients, Zoe Purser, and Maddie Garceau, at the Life’s A Ride Show in S**o Maine. Zoe just missed getting her bronze medal by less than a percentage point at third level on Mantis B, uugghh! Zoe is just 21 years old and a UNH student. Maddie is just 16 years old and needed two scores this weekend at PSG for her silver medal, and she did get her medal, with high scores, and a lot of hard work as her horse Lulapon Nedt (aka smidge) , was a bit tired. Way to go ladies!! Keep up the good work!!!

Five Stars Farm is very happy to congratulate owner Ann Webb, and rider Aneliese Gibson, for receiving the highest score of the show (over 73%) at the NHDEA schooling show aboard Ann’s 4 year old Horse named Triton! This young horse has never been off the property since he arrived a year ago, and acted like such a pro. We can’t wait to see how this very special horse develops. Zoe Purser on Mantis B also rode for her first time a third level test and won with a very respectable score of 62.4 %. Madelanne Garceau dipped her toes in the water for her FEI debut riding the PSG, aboard Lulapon Nedt. This pair also won with a respectable score of 63.2%. Ending out the show was training level test 2, where Aneliese Gibson scoring 65.7 and Devon Berube 64.1 placing 2nd in their divisions. All in all it was a great day with very promising futures for all!!!

Five Stars Farm wants to congratulate Madelanne Garceau and Lulapon Nedt, AKA “Smidge “, for their 4 wins at the Bear Spot Farm dressage show May 11 and 12th. This was Maddies first time ever riding the 3rd level test 3, and she scored 65.62%, and 66.5%. She also rode for the very first time the 4th level test 3, and scored 68.7%, and 70.27% respectively!!!! Maddie is 16 years old competing against people 2 to 3 times her age. She never went off course, having to memorize and ride back to back tests! She has qualified for regional championships, but now has her sights on working on the PSG. Maddie and Smidge had to take a year off due to an unfortunate injury to Smidge. We are so happy to see them moving forward again. Our thx to the Bear Spot Farm crew for running a stellar show, and show secretary Sue McGowen for helping us with Maddie's ride times. Bear Spot is a fabulous venue , and is expertly run Ribbons and prizes make you feel like you won the Olympics 😉
