in horses goes back nine
years to the beginning of her
4-H horsemanship project,
recalls that her first at
tempts at horse care were a
disaster. She acquired a
registered Quarter Horse
named Dot who “was 400
pounds underweight because
we were starving her and
didn’t even know it. We knew
absolutely nothing about
raising a horse,” the winner
explained.
With help from her local
club leader she soon learned
proper feeding, worming and
grooming, but still expresses
amazement that Dot sur
vived. In spite of that bad
start, she placed fourth out
of 64 in her first attempt at
showmanship.
Since then, she has held all
offices in her local club,
helped teach at horse clinics,
gone on tours, and become a
junior leader.
