2010 Spring Invitational Horse Show
Bainbridge, OH - May 17, 2010- Fieldstone Farm's annual Spring Invitational Horse Show was a great success for all participants. Students and their families enjoyed a beautiful, sunny day, complete with a perfect rainbow overhead! As one student exclaimed, "The rainbow is out just for our horse show today!"
Fieldstone Farm students and their therapy horse partners competed in one or more of four basic classes: Driving, Trail, Equitation, Futures, and Dressage.

Dr. Bill Clem, a retired pediatrician who practiced in the Cleveland area for 40 years, volunteered his time to judge the show. He had his work cut out for him. As he stated, "It's tough to place these riders; they're all so good!"
"Our students work hard for months practicing with their instructors and equine partners for the horse show. It is always such an exciting day with horses and riders looking and performing at their best. The excitement in the air is contagious as their family members, spectators, and volunteers watch in awe! The students' smiles say it all!"
