10 Moments to Be Thankful For

On November 30, 2018December 2, 2018 By gracegorham2 Comments

With the holiday season in full swing, it is important to remember what we are thankful for amid the craziness of planning and shopping. For me, this past summer was rough, riding-wise. My horse went lame at the very beginning of last season, and then started to come back later in the season only to …

5 Things I Learned About Equine Media

On November 18, 2018November 18, 2018 By gracegorham1 Comment

When I went to the Fair Hill International Three-Day Event in Elkton, Maryland, I learned a lot about how the equine media industry works. It was my first time having a press pass at an event, and it was a fun experience. The press pass didn’t necessarily grant me access to a lot of specific …

Last weekend was Fair Hill International, as everyone most likely knows by now. Personally, I love the Fair Hill event. I love riding at the horse trials at the lower levels, and I love coming to the international event in the fall. I’ve made some great memories at Fair Hill, and it is such a …

An Eventer’s Trip to Devon

On October 12, 2018 By gracegorham4 Comments

A few weekends ago, I traveled to Devon for the first time with the dressage ladies from my barn. They go every year, so I wanted to go and see what all the hype was about. All of the ladies are very nice and I enjoy their company, so I was sure no matter what …

5 Reasons Why You Should Volunteer

On October 3, 2018October 3, 2018 By gracegorham1 Comment

Everyone knows that events could never run without the many volunteers that graciously offer their time and labor. Most people have their list of reasons as to why they don't volunteer more often. Either they don't know enough about events, or they don't have enough time, or they are too busy competing themselves. However, there …

The thought of having to sell my pony has crept closer and closer in recent years. Every time the topic came up, a feeling of dread washed over me, and I would shut down because I didn’t want anything to change. But recently, the perfect opportunity came up for my pony, Saucy. She is an …

One of my favorite things about eventing is how the upper-level riders are so accessible. I don’t think there is any other riding discipline where you can literally just send a text to someone like Boyd Martin and schedule a cross country lesson for next week. And just from that simple text, you can trailer …

Pressure

On August 10, 2018November 18, 2018 By gracegorham2 Comments

“Why do I do this to myself?” This shouldn’t be a question a 16 year old asks herself after a horse show that's supposed to be fun. Yet here I am. I might have an okay day, too. Maybe my dressage test had a few mistakes, but it didn’t score horribly. Maybe I had clear …
