Good Evening Everyone!
Just a quick update on what’s been going on at Hylee Training over the last month. We are all well on our way to being organized for the Fall/Winter season. Lessons are well under way and we are taking bookings to be included in the November schedule for regular lessons. Yes we do ride all winter. Usually in November we are starting to bundle up a bit but there is no reason to stop riding when you have an indoor ring to ride in.
Don’t forget about the new pricing for group and semi-private lessons. All prices are located on the website here. Just reply to this email if you would like to be included in the November schedule. We do have a few spots open on the weekends in October if need be.
NEW ARRIVAL
This time it’s not a horse! On Sept 11th, Ayden was born and is of course my newest edition. He weighed in a 8.5 lbs and has already been to the barn to meet all horses. If I’m there you’ll expect to see him there as well. He’s always happy to meet new people so, make sure you say Hi to him as well!
THEORY NIGHT
Due to the fact, I was in the hospital during the last theory night – we have rescheduled it! You can RSVP on Facebook on reply to this email.
The new date is Saturday, October 22 · 4:00pm – 6:30pm, the topic is Showmanship Explained!
RIDER LEVELS
We are also starting to test our rider levels again! Don’t forget for the kids these can be applied as High School Credits. Be sure to email me for details on this.
DRC AWARDS
As many of you know I’m still a director at Delta Riding Club and we are heading to their awards night on Saturday, November 12 · 6:00pm – 11:00pm be sure to mark your calendar, as usual we will have a group going. If anyone would like to join us – let me know and I’ll grab you a ticket. It’s always a great night out with some horsey friends :) Megan and I will be there for sure!
CLINICS
We will be heading out for a clinic with Robin Hahn (yes 3 time Olympian) Robin Hahn in November. If you are interested in attending or even coming out to watch let me know. Here’s a bit about Robin:
One of Canada’s true pioneers of three-day eventing, Robin Hahn is amultiple Olympian and Pan American Games team member. He was the highest placed Canadian at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, finishing ninth individually on Taffy. He has dedicated his life to the pursuitof the highest reaches of excellence, whether it is as a rider,teacher, trainer, volunteer or event organizer. A Level III eventing coach, he helped to create what has become Canada’s coaching certification program. Now 76, Robin continues to mentor event riders; he has also returned to the discipline of his youth, competing with The Congressman in Grand Prix show jumping in 2009. He is currently writing a book titled Gymnastic Jumping. Robin and his wife, Kelly Law, live with three dogs and numerous horses at their farm, on house, in Lumby, B.C.
