2009 Junior / Young Rider
Program
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
We participate in many activities throughout
the year; as well as
representing CNYD&CTA at Lendon Gray’s Youth Festival.
Most importantly we have
fun and learn a lot!

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.
