Rolling Hills Ranch Championship CT & Dressage Show. Everyone had a great time as they competed to win beautiful big ribbons as well as jackets for Champion and vests for Reserve Champion. We had 44 riders come out to compete. Our competitors ranged from rails on the ground to jumping 3’3” from Special Olympics Walk to Second Level 3. Phoebe Devoe judge extraordinaire did a fantastic job of encouraging riders. Susan Ferenz kept her fingers warm with a heater as she scribed from 9am until 5pm. Thank you Lord that it was not terribly cold but it was cold. Katherine Intano did an great job cooking and organizing the food as our wonderful competitors brought to lunch/dinner. Caitlin Parkes the best show secretary ever had everything ready for Bill Bolling and Staci so they were able to score dressage tests and give out ribbons, answer questions to keep the show going. They had never done this job before and they “rocked it”. Horah designed a very nice jump course. Eliza Herman and Levi kept the jump arena going as Chris Roberts judged. Jayden walked up and down the hill all day to collect dressage tests and Angela was great at taking money and going whatever she was asked. Debbie Conway Duncan did an incredible job of getting the riders to the ring on time. Jamie and Chelsea were fantastic barn manager assistants. Duncan was a great support person as he did many jobs. More pictures will follow.

Attached are the ride times for the show on Saturday.
Unless you've been told otherwise you will be parking in the field. We have a good number of riders coming, so please be sure to utilize the whole field. As of right now, I am counting about 7 through the day.
Come down Rock Run Road and turn right into the lane marked "Bed & Breakfast". From there you will turn left through a gate and will park your trailers in that field.

Warm-up for Dressage will be in the indoor arena next to the field. You may use the outdoor arena if no one is jumping.
Warm-up for Jumping will be in the jump arena. You can jump 3-4 jumps before your round begins to warm up.
CT Riders: your jump times are right after dressage, when you are ready.

There are images attached to help guide you.
We look forward to seeing everyone!

For any issues, concerns, etc please contact Renee Dixon at [email protected].

Esther meets the Horse Eating Tent.

Esther and Renee doing First Level 2 next to the Horse Eating Tent. She was so scared our free walk which is usually a 7 or an 8 became a 5. The wind blew, the tent moved and Esther got very big like a stallion. I laughed through the entire test. What’s a girl to do. When we left the arena two people told me what a great job we did and how nice it was to see me smile through the entire test. Katherine Intano Caitlin Parkes

Esther and Renee got Reserve Champion in the CBLM Regional Championships 1st Level Musical.

I am so proud of Esther. We got Reserve Champion in our CBLM Musical Championships with a 66% Champion had a 67% and Third had a 65%. When you watch the video of the awards ceremony you will see when I ask Esther to canter she wanted to trot bigger. I said to the crowd “and this is why we’re got second”😂😂😂😂 Eventually you cantered.

Esther and Renee first day at the CBLMs September 13, 2024

Esther and Renee Second Level 2 in the pouring rain. I remembered my test. Our canter walk canters were not where they needed to be. I expected to be last in the class. I was thrilled to get 8th out of ten. We came down here knowing we are not yet strong at Second Level so we gave it our best try. This evening we did the First Level Musical. We got a 63% bringing us to First out of two in the Open Division and Second out of five with the divisions combined. Thank you #funwithhorses #dressage #dancingwithhorses #horsepower #ridinglessons #horsebackridinglessons

Esther and Renee, Second Level 2

Miss Renee and Esther competing in the CBLM Championships at the Carolina Horse Park. Second Level 2. It was pouring while we were competing. We only placed 8 out of 10. We are definitely not confirmed Second Level. Some days we have great canter, walk, canters some days not so good. Today there were trot steps in areas there were supposed to be non. A huge thank you to my amazing videographer Pat Dixon. Poor guy was soaking wet.
