Maddie: Mounted Instructor
C3 Dressage Specialty & HB from Croixside Pony Club
I have been riding horses since I was 8
years old and have been in Pony Club for 8 years. I
primarily focus on dressage training but also enjoy improving my stadium/cross
country skills and love a great trail ride! My horse is an 12 year old
Welsh/Holsteiner pony whom I have been with for 5 years and have taken up to
Third Level in dressage. In 2014, I was accepted into the Minnesota Hooved
Animal Rescue Foundation’s Trainer’s Challenge. So this year I will be training a
young Arabian mare to present at the MHARF silent auction in September. In addition to riding, I enjoy playing
the piano, working at a local animal hospital, volunteering for a wildlife
rehab center and spending time with family, friends, my dog and cat.
Anna: Mounted Instructor
C3 Traditional from Lead Hound Pony Club
Before going to college I was a member of Lead Hound Pony Club. I joined in 1998 when I was five and got my C3 when I was fifteen. Since then I have been an examiner and taught many certification preps. I really love teaching, and especially like mentoring other PC members as they begin teaching. I am an eventer and work primarily with young horses moving up the levels. I am a junior UW-River Falls studying Biology and Education. I was on the USPC International Tetrathlon team in 2011 and traveled to compete in England and Ireland. I also do a lot of skijoring for fun and have done a bit of mounted games.

Anessa: Team Leader & Instructor
C2 Horse Management from Kimberwicke Pony Club
I am a C2-Horse Management-rated pony
clubber who has been in the organization for the past ten years. I have
in that time dabbled in several disciplines, including spending a few years
vaulting, but am busy at college and do my best to keep up with learning about
horse care and management. I enjoy Quiz and have competed regionally,
nationally, and internationally.
Rachel: Team Leader & Instructor
C2 Traditional from Rising Sun Pony Club
I am 17 and plan to take my HB this summer. I first joined pony
club when I was 8 years old. I’ve been an instructor at D Retreat and
have attended many pony club events since joining. My horse, Maddy, is a
15.3 hand blue roan American Warmblood mare. We are qualified to compete
at Championships this summer in Eventing.

HB from Lead Hound Pony Club
I've been in Pony Club for four years now. I'll be turning 18 this summer––and I've been riding since I was 6. I have an eight year old Straight Egyptian Al Khamsa Arabian gelding named ND Khedar Fateen, whom I've owned since he was two! I started and trained him myself, but because I'm so busy with AP/IB/PSEO courses at school, we've taken a break from competition. I still ride everyday: We love to fox-hunt with Long Lake Hounds, trail ride, swim, and just gallop around.(Not pictured is Ben Samuelson -- C2 Traditional/HB from Canterbury Pony Club)
