fb post RPH – April 30
We recently attended the CHSRA D7 awards dinner, where we celebrated the outstanding achievements of these remarkable young individuals. Their tireless efforts and dedication have truly paid off, and we are incredibly proud of each and every one of them. It has been a privilege to witness their growth as skilled horsemen and responsible young adults. Congratulations are in order for each of them. Charlie Rodan, Tyler Eade, Avalon Goldstein, and McKinley Blake.
Special recognition is due to Senior Hailey Hansen, who took top honors winning the year championship in the Reined Cow Horse. Over the past four years, we have had the pleasure of watching Hailey develop into an exceptional horsewoman and young lady. We wish her continued success in all her future endeavors
