September 29-30, 2012
I have been attending equestrian events at this venue
since I was a child, never thinking that one day I would be showing
here! With
Harrisburg less than 20 miles from DCTF for the first time I had the
opportunity to show our magnificient Friesian driving mare to local
equestrian exhibitors. There were only 2 driving classes, so we studied
the prize list for other suitable classes and found 2 costume and 2
leadline classes. With over 1200 entries this was a huge show for the western and hunter/jumper crowd, and with us
being the only Friesian there, making us stand out. Farm Show Complex Harrisburg, PA It was also the first time I showed in my "back yard," making it easy for friends to come out to support us and for us to tend to our barn chores and other horses. |

 This was the first show for my
dear
friend Alice's 6 YO granddaughter, Grace, Mechanicsburg, PA. It was
also the debut of the period costume I had gotten at Martin's Carriage
Auction in the spring and fit Jodi Van Sprang, Harrisburg, PA,
perfectly. Jodi is a beautiful rider and has always shown Sjaantje well.
