The Chemung County Fair was a long and tiring four days for the Trinity riders, who camped on site - but we came out with loads of ribbons and several championships!!  The undisputed star of the weekend was Jennie, who rode Rusty in EVERY division - hunter/jumper, western, English, and dressage!!  She impressed everyone with her toughness and grit jumping some pretty intense courses on Thursday and Friday, then slowed it down to win reserve champion in the novice Western division on Saturday.  On Sunday she rode in two divisions - running back and forth between two arenas to ride a training level dressage test and take third in dressage equitation, and then blowing away the competition with a grand championship in the junior English division!  Sarah also showed Rusty in the Western division, with some great rides and a beautiful trail course - he was definitely the trail champ! 

 

Michaela did a great job on Opie in the walk/trot under 10 division, squeezing out a reserve championship after winning an intense ride-off!  She won the pleasure class and had some great cavaletti courses, with second and third place ribbons in very competitive classes!  Gabby showed Opie for the first time, taking several ribbons in the over 10 division and also riding some nice cavaletti courses!
