Central New York Junior/ Young Riders -
The
Future of CNYD&CTA
Who are the Central New York Junior
/ Young Riders?
We are the members of CNYD&CTA under the
age of 21. We
host meetings once a month during the
off-season to keep us on
our toes. The meeting topics range from daily care and
nutrition
to different riding disciplines. (Some of us
do not show or even own our own horse.)
We also volunteer our time at different
club events throughout the year.
Goals of the Central New York Junior / Young
Riders
To participate in many activities throughout
the year as well as
represent CNYD&CTA at Lendon Gray’s Youth Festival.
Most importantly we
have fun and learn a lot!
We currently do not have a Coordinator for
the Program. If you are interested in the position for this
vital program, please contact Paul Regan at 315-440-4817 or pregan1@twcny.rr.com

Ninth
Annual Dressage For Kids Youth Dressage
Festival
Lindsay
Jacob Remembered
Fondly
remembered at this year’s Youth Dressage Festival by family
and friends was Lindsay Jacob. Jacob passed away late this
spring at 21 after losing her battle to a rare type of cancer.
She had competed in the Youth Dressage Festival last year. It
was her one and only time, but she loved every minute of it.
She ended up tying for first place in the highest score on the
written test portion of the competition.
To honor
her, Jacob’s barn mates donated a perpetual trophy in her name
to be awarded each year at the Youth Dressage Festival. The
first to win that trophy this year was Katherine Greene (CNYD&CTA Jr/YR), 17, of
Chittenango, NY.
“I feel
very honored and humble to receive this,” she said.
Greene,
who trains with Carmela Wilbur
(CNYD&CTA Member), won it for having the highest
score in equitation for 18-21 year olds. She earned a 95
percent.
“Words
can’t explain the feelings we have right now. I know that
Lindsay is here right now and smiling,” said Lindsay’s former
trainer Francine Gentile of Fire Creek Farm in Connecticut.
Lindsay’s
fan club sported shirts that had been designed by her before
she died and the shirt design had been incorporated into the
trophy design. |
