Students Shine: May Update from SGW Dressage

Nan Schumaker with MHIB's Jim Steele
 The big news of the month is that Susan got the notification that she officially got her “R” Dressage Sport Horse Breeding (DSHB) license! This will now allow her to judge at breeding championships around the country.

The big student news of the month is that Nan Schumaker won the Touch of Class award presented by the Maryland Horse Industry Board (MHIB)! This award was established in 2011 to honor Maryland horses, individuals, teams, organizations or events that demonstrate the highest standards of excellence in the Maryland Horse Industry. We’re so thrilled for Nan to have received this award due to her top placing with La Cosa Nostra (aka Kozi)!

·           Margaret McKelvy successfully moved her young horse, Runsonstilts, up to Preliminary at Loudoun Horse Trials

·           Nan Schumaker with La Cosa Nostra: 1st at MCTA Horse Trials in Sunday Training-1

·           Kelley Williams successfully moved her young horse, Very Tasteful, up to Intermediate at Plantation Field Horse Trials



Margaret was thrilled with Stilts at their first Prelim!
