We were all very happy to see the new covered arena at Woodside. What a big improvement!! Everyone had a great show:

* Peggy Harder’s Cantabrica & Heidi won all three of her 2nd Level classes with scores of 66+%.
* Nellie had a good go in Intermediare I scoring 65+%.
* Kari and Nancy also had good runs in the PSG and Grand Prix.
DRESSAGE IN THE ALMONDS, LODI, CA
Jim and Katharos competed in their first dressage show over the weekend. Jim wanted to go to a show out of our area so he wouldn’t have to ride in front of his clients and freinds for the first show. After three weeks of practice we set off to Dressage in the Almonds in Lodi, CA.
When we arrived we found out that the show had been over-subscribed, so Jim’s arena had a new judge, Vicki Matisi……she is Jim’s client. Also since we didn’t have time to get Jim an amatuer card he had to ride in the Open division. That meant he would be riding against Patience……she is Jim’s client. Also at the show was Maddy & Peat…… Jim’s clients and many other people that know Jim from going to shows with Heidi.
Also, Jim was the only man riding in the show, so this made him a bit of a celebrity for the day. By this time we realized that our efforts to be incognito were not working.
Jim and Kman did great, scoring 63+ in both classes and earning a 3rd place in one of his classes.
