Congratulations to owner and breeder, Lee Ann Kagy of Bluffton Ohio.  Her mare, Simone, was the Open Training Level Award winner for the USDF All Breeds Program for the Gypsy Vanner Horse.  The GVHS has been a part of this program for many years.  There are now 23 Gypsy Vanner horses in the program.  Kaeli, owned by Kim Osborne was the very first Gypsy Vanner mare to be recognized in the program, and Charlie, owned by El Brio Vanner was the first stallion.  To learn more about this program and sign your horse up go to the USDF website and look for All Breeds Program or contact the GVHS.
