My Carousel Crew started 2026 with an amazing time !!! We’ve stayed home practicing for a good bit while it’s also been so cold and getting out to practice was just what we needed. We have some really special highlights to share!!! 🌟 Addison Calame and both her ponies Honey I’m Good and May-b Tango finished reserve champion and both class winners over fences in the USHJA 2’ and the small/medium Children’s Ponies. Addison rode her ponies so well, Andy and Teddy were awesome!! 🎉 Ellie Calame and Twilight’s Whisper earned champion in the Short Stirrup, I’m so proud of Ellie she’s such a sweetheart!! 😍 Ana Sierecki and Frosted Cheerios moved up two divisions and joined the Short Stirrup, last showing in the walk trot she was determined to try her best and that she did!! Earning two 2nd’s and first time ever putting courses together with Cheerio it was inspiring to see such a strong team!! 🎠 My kids agreed to form their own Walk Trot division riding together as a team and it was too cute!! 🎠 Carolyn Upward and Qantar’s Chico had their first show together!! They were the class winner for the hunter under saddle!! 🤩 Peyton Fishlinger and Twilight’s Whisper showed for the first time in the walk trot and were the class winner in Pleasure!! ❤️ Scarlett Calame and May-b Tango finished our team with the win in the Equitation class!! All three of these amazing kids ended up tying for Champion and no! I didn’t pay off the judge!! 🤣 thank you for following along these young rider’s journeys they all did so well and had a blast 💥 can’t wait for spring shows to get underway!! ☀️
