Jennifer and Claude entered only quarterhorse shows, any- where east of the Mississippi and south of New England. AQHA quarter horse shows aren't held in the Back Mountain, Jennifer said. Jennifer rode in English pleas- ure and equitation classes, but has never taken Claude over jumps because his legs aren't strong enough for it. In English riding, the horses -have braided manes and tails and . wear smaller saddles and differ- ently styled bridles than their Western counterparts. English riders wear special breeches and the traditional black velveteen _ jump cap. The two styles of riding ®) __a hot item at quarterhorse shows for about a year, after she bought _ him from a friend of teacher Tracy "Gleason. are also somewhat different from one another. Claude and Jennifer have been “Claude has taught me a lot about riding,” she said. “I've learned to be more patient, to be "kinder with my hands on the reins "and to use the proper aids (cues) es» at the proper time. Claude is a _ great all-around horse.” Claude is a bit of a ham and 5 enjoys being fussed over - except when it's time to eat. Then he tosses his head around, chews on "his lead shank and generally lets Jennifer know he has more im- portant things to do than enter- taining visitors. His usual diet of oats and hay is supplemented by horse vitamins, a special electrolyte mixture which “Jennifer described as “horse Ga- torade” and occasional treats of apples and carrots. “He eats just about anything — even cheeseburgers,” Jennifer said . laughing. “He stole one from a little girl visiting the barn yester- .- day. His favorite munchie is those little red and white Starlight mints.” - Jennifer has had many horses in her decade of serious riding, rand two weeks ago became the ,~owner of My Bossin’ Buddy, whom she plans to show in Western . classes. Buddy is a gray gelding about the same age as Claude, but “he’s not my buddy the way Claude is,” she said smiling. Jennifer plans to ride Buddy in Western classes next year and will show Claude in English classes unless she sells him. Purebred quarter horses like Claude can cost a cool $35,000, she said. Jennifer has set an ambitious goal —- to qualify as the AQHA’s best all-around amateur rider next year. The new truck which is part of the prize will come in handy because Jennifer does all her own hauling. She already has a horse trailer, which teacher Tracy Glea- son has pulled to all Jennifer's shows with his truck. Going out for Rookie of the Year forced Jennifer to take a great deal of time from her studies at Delaware Valley College, where she is studying equine business. “It's a combination of a two- year business degree and a four- year equine degree,” she said. “It’s designed for people who want to have their own stable.” The students run the barn and take care of the college's 50 horses during the school year. They also run the college’s summer youth riding camp. Students aren't al- lowed to bring their own horses with them. While Jennifer was at college, Claude stayed with Glea- son. Jennifer has only 10 credits in elective courses to complete in order to earn her degree, and she “For me, the excitement of horse shows is simply showing beautiful animals. ' The prizes don’t matter.” L POST PHOTO/GRACE R. DOVE Jennifer Harteis and her quarterhorse, Gabs Unlimited (Claude) take a cool walk at Winterview. This fall won't be a vacation for Jennifer and Claude. They have qualified for the Quarterhorse Congress, theworld’slargesthorse show in October in Columbus, OH, and the World Quarterhorse Show in Oklahoma in November. Jennifer credits her parents for ker success. “They were always behind me and always believed in me,” she said. “I wouldn't be where Jennifer Harteis Champion rider plans to take some courses locally and transfer them back to Dela- ware Valley to meet the require- ments. She presently works for Kathy Shaskas at Winterview, where she brought Claude for a recent visit. “This is what I love to do-ride and train horses,” she said. “It feels more like fun than a job. For me, the excitement of horse shows is simply showing beautiful animals. The prizes don’t matter.” Her hard year of showing taught her how to deal with other people and to have confidence in herself. “You might go out of the ring feeling you had the best ride in the world but the judge won't like you,” she said. “The judge might not like the color of your horse or something. You have to learn to please yourself and to do the best that you can.” | RELIGIOUS SERVICES BACK MOUNTAIN HARVEST ASSEMBLY - 340 Carverton Rd., Trucksville. 696-1128. Pastor, Daniel S. Miller.

Her brother, Jared, 13, thinks horses are “okay,” but prefers four- wheelers, while sister Tatas, 19, thinks Jennifer is “crazy.” “She asks me what I find to do all day down at the barn,” Jen- nifer said laughing. “I think she had a very traumatic experience one time cleaning stalls.” Jennifer advises young people interested in earning such titles to get as much hands-on experi- ence as possible. “Gooutand doit, and love what you do,” she said. “If you begin to doubt yourself, take a break.

The Hilstolskys have also asked to be rezoned from agricultural to resi- dential. “Why don't you solve the prob- lem and rezone that entire section residential?” Turner asked. Dorrance said the commission had considered it, but if one resi- dent in the section objects to being rezoned, it can’t be done. Other zoning matters to be considered at the September 12 special meeting are: e The designation of approxi- mately 45 acres presently zoned for mining, from which the Reese family removes topsoil with the proper state permits. Attorney Gene Kelly, representing the Reese family, explained the dirt is re- moved from one acre at a time, with that acre of land being fully restored before another acre is used. : Ifthe land is rezoned to agricul- . tural, the mining operation will become a nonconforming use, Dorrance said. The township will have more control over the min- ing operation if the present min- ing designation is kept, he added. e The Humphrey minor subdi- vision, which will create three lots along Cedar Run. Two of the lots will be approximately two acres. Wetlands, the creeks’ 100-year flood plain and the dimensions and total acreage of the lots and the availability of electric service must be shown, Doughton said. The supervisors and planning commission will hold a public hearing on the amendments to the zoning ordinance September 13 at 7 p.m. at the fire hall. .
