After months of planning, the week of the Lendon Youth Dressage Festival has finally arrived!
[nbsp]
"I am so excited to be doing the first clinic. We had some wonderful applications — what a multi-talented group of young people we have. I already know some of the riders and know of their talent, but I am hoping to find a least one diamond in the rough – someone who hasn’t had the opportunity to demonstrate her considerable talent. Having another Youth Dressage Festival after the clinic gives Courtney and myself a chance to watch these riders in competition, a real bonus. Thank you Hampton Green Farm for making all of this possible."[nbsp]
