ROSEMARY BILSON REFLECTS
“This is my first time having a ribbon at a National final like this, first time indoors. So, just being in the top ten was unbelievable. I was just hoping to have a good solid round today, and I was just, I am speechless. When they said my name, it just did not seem real at all.”

THANK YOU TO THE HAMEL FAMILY FOUNDATION
“Every year, I am so excited about the show. It’s always a surprise to me. We thought it would have some support, but never this kind of support, with one-hundred and eighty-four riders today. We just never thought it would surpass the Maclay in numbers. We thought it would be a great stepping stone, but just not like everybody has taken it. For a lot of people, this is as far as they go, and they are thrilled. Which is really fun.”
