Looking back on 2025, it was a whirlwind of many blessings!🙏🙏🙏

We truly have such a wonderful barn family & friends that make this journey an amazing experience! Thank you for that😉❣️

We had an unbelievable show season for BOTH Performance riders and the JWS Academy Show Team!!🤩It’ll be a challenge to top that!

I don’t ever take it lightly that I’m so lucky to get to work beside my wonderful husband that understands why I love what I do, and to always be my sounding board when I need one❤️
Thank you God for my understanding family that understands the horse business and why I can’t always make every family event.
And lastly, thank you Lord for knowing I needed this for my final career! To many more days of HEALTH & HAPPINESS 🥂

What an incredible experience we had at the inaugural Academy Regionals in Cleveland TN.

It was a 2-day show on Saturday and Sunday and we had an outstanding turnout for the first year!

JWS had a thrilling show with our 5 riders, taking home 5 Regional Championship ribbons. It was an encouraging warm-up and morale booster going into National Academy Championships!

Thank you, Courtney Hughley, Janet Crampton and Janie Hamilton, it was lots of fun and stress free🙌😉👌

Our Horsemanship Showcase in Tryon, NC, was an unforgettable experience. We brought 12 enthusiastic riders, 8 horses, and earned 20 Blues.
The world-class facilities, complete with 5-6 restaurants and great shopping, made for a truly exceptional event.
Of course, the merry-go-round is always a hit for the kids!
Thank you to all of our worthy competitors, they had a great show too!
Liz Holmes, again putting on an incredible event with Jessica, Kasey, Greg & Travis. Thank you again, everyone!
We’ll see you and many others next year🙌
