This weekend
is home to some of the oldest horse shows in the Country. The very famous Devon
Horse Show started in 1896 in Devon, PA and The Norfolk Hunt Horse show in
Medfield, MA celebrated its 104th year. Both of these shows have earned the designation of a USEF
Heritage Competition which is reserved for those competitions that have been in
existence for a quarter century or more, promoted and grown equestrian sport,
and made a contribution to the community outside the gates of the horse show by
achieving, maintaining and promoting the equestrian ideals of sportsmanship and
competition. We
were lucky enough to have riders wearing our beautiful bows and representing us
in both of these prestigious shows.
Also riding
in the small ponies at Devon was our Belle, Maggie Junkin and her pony Foxlair
Fantasia. They had great rides and got ribbons over fences and in the pony hunt
teams. Maggie wore custom bows in Devon blue and looked fantastic. She also had
a set of custom bows to match her shadbelly. She was dressed up as a snowman from the Movie
Frozen with her hunt team. They placed 2nd! Foxlair Fantasia “Fancy”
also competed in the leadline class with a little friend and placed 2nd
out of a very large crowd. Fun was had by all in this team.
Caroline
Ellis and her pony Pride Rock did an amazing job showing in the medium pony hunters
at Devon placing very respectably in her over fence classes. Caroline was
wearing a set of custom shorty bows that she and her mother designed
themselves. She looked like a pro with perfect braids and was spotted on the
Chronicle of the Horse’s website with her chic look.
From Leadline to the small pony hunters our bows were spotted all over Devon!
At The
Norfolk Hunt show there were bows everywhere. It was a nice day on the grass
hunting fields and everyone had a great day. The pet pony winner Nina Wordell
and her pony Summer sported some Belle Bows with our signature pony on them.
Looking fabulous! We were there to catch the action.
What a great
weekend of shows and bows! If you want to be a part of our winning team please
