Ingate

It was an emotional day at Spruce Meadows during a tribute to Hickstead, one of the greatest show jumping horses of all time, who passed away in November 2011. Canadian Eric Lamaze, riding partner of the famed stallion, was on hand to dedicate the statue made by Mary Sand. The bronze will stay permanently at Spruce Meadows, as per Eric’s wishes.

Congratulations to Pam Baker, of  Bealston, Virginia, and Arthur Hawkins, of  Rancho Santa Fe, California, for being recognized by The USHJA as 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award recipients. Created in 2008, the Lifetime Achievement Award honors those with a lifelong involvement in the sport who have dedicated their lives to advancing the hunter and jumper disciplines on a national platform.

Winning a Big Eq class is a Big deal! As this issue went to press, several ASPCA Maclay Regional titles had been determined. Hunter Holloway took the Region 5 title, Jeffrey Tolson won the Region 6 Championship, Sara Nordstrom took home the Region 7 top honors and Alexis Graves won the Region 8 title. Sidelines Magazine is a Big fan of the Maclay and will be a sponsor of the class during the 2013 Winter Equestrian Festival.

Florida Trac, in Loxahatchee, Florida, is a rescue organization dedicated to caring for Florida Thoroughbred horses who are no longer able to race. Many of these horses have sustained injuries or acquired medical or even surgical problems that are crippling or life threatening and expensive to treat. Florida Trac is seeking financial contributions to help pay medical bills. Donations can be made for Florida Trac Veterinary Care by calling Reid & Associates at (561) 790-2226. Ask for Jan Zenobia or Helen Freshour.

Region IV of the American Connemara Pony Society recently held its annual show during the Highfields “Just for Fun” show in Aiken,South Carolina. In addition to the regular open Highfields classes there were breeding classes for Connemaras, both purebred and halfbred, as well as Mountain and Moorland ponies. The Connemara pony is Ireland’s only native breed and they usually range in size from 13 to 15 hands or more. They are known for their gentle dispositions, intelligence, hardiness and jumping ability. For more information on Connemaras (including a classified ads section) go to www.acps.org.

Calling all Thoroughbreds.

The renowned equestrian photographer John Minoprio – whose photos have graced the pages of Sidelines – now has a beautiful new granddaughter named Florence. A brief stint in intensive care immediately after her birth has set her on the right track.

Hats off to Erin Jones, from Parker, Colorado, and her lovely mount Edmund. The duo won the Preliminary Division and the blue ribbon at the Area 9 eventing championships in Gillette,Wyoming, at the Powder Basin Horse Trials. Job well done!

Saving the animals! Barbara Nelson, Joint Master of the Fox Hounds for Whiskey Road Fox Hounds in Aiken, South Carolina, has been on an animal shelter mission and what a huge mission it has been. The brand new state-of-the-art animal shelter has opened and is beautiful. The SPCA Albrecht Center for Animal Welfare includes a Regional Spay and Neuter Clinic where the most expensive surgery is only $70 and an Education and Training Center for dog training, pet therapy and student education.

We’ve heard that Colin Dangaard has a new historical novel that is causing some excitement in the horse world and beyond. Check out Barnes and Nobles for early reviews of “Talking with Horses.”

The equestrian world lost two great women recently. Toni DelFiandra, the President of the South Florida Hunter Jumper Association and mother of Michael DelFiandra, of Sweet Oak Farm, lost her battle with ovarian cancer. Rebecca “Becca” L’Heureux, of Alexandria, Virginia, lost her battle with brain cancer. Becca, 24, was the daughter of Mary Crane ofDover,Massachusetts. A life-long equestrian, Becca competed and foxhunted in theUnited States and abroad.

Sven Harmsen, of The Netherlands, the Royal Dutch Equestrian Federation’s Chef d’Equipe, national coach and trainer for Ponies, Juniors and Young Riders in Jumping, passed away at the age of 51. He attended the 2012 Spruce Meadows ‘Masters’ in Calgary as Chef d’Equipe with the senior Dutch team of Jur Vrieling, Leon Thijssen, Harrie Smolders and Jeroen Dubbeldam, and shared their bronze medal win in the BMO Nations’ Cup on 8 September.

Artist of the month!! 📸🎨 Samantha Dawn’s s Artist of the month!! 📸🎨
Samantha Dawn’s story could be summed up in a few words: When one door closes, another opens. She’s always lived with that mindset, no matter the situation—through heart-wrenching times and unbelievably happy moments, horses, art and music have sustained her through it all. Using her pain and hardship as her motivation has allowed her to find solace behind the camera, calling forth the horse's majestic beauty while healing her wounds and heartbreak.

“My story is kind of all over the place,” Samantha admitted. She was born in Missouri in 1991, and loving horses as long as she could remember, playing "horse" is something Samantha did that most horse-crazy kids can relate to. She never thought horses or photography would turn into a career. Growing up in a musical family, her dream as a young girl was to be a country singer, and she traveled the nation singing at competitions and shows in Nashville and other venues.

HELLO OCTOBER!!! Kicking off the month with Intern HELLO OCTOBER!!! Kicking off the month with International-level dressage rider Amelia Newcomb. Who is committed to making dressage accessible to anyone who wants to learn and improve in the sport. With a mantra of “Dressage for All,” Amelia, her husband, Germán Schneider, and the rest of her team at Amelia Newcomb Dressage believe that anyone and everyone can learn to love their ride. 
With over 100,000 YouTube subscribers around the globe, Amelia is able to share her joy and 
enthusiasm for the sport with more equestrians than she ever dreamed of through her online training 
platform. Amelia’s curriculum breaks riding down into a simple, proven system that anyone can follow 
and get results, regardless of age, discipline or location.“My goal is to make good dressage training accessible to everyone who is interested in learning. One way I do that is by producing quality videos to educate and encourage dressage students along their dressage journey,” Amelia said. “The transformations that my students get are insane and my business is changing the entire sport of dressage and the way people learn to ride.”
While Amelia is a talented USDF Gold, Silver and Bronze medalist today, she knows the struggles 
associated with trying to make your way in the sport without abundant educational resources. “I grew up in Colorado, where there weren’t that many dressage resources available. I was so hungry for knowledge, I would go to big shows just to watch the big-named trainers work,” Amelia said. “That’s why, when given the opportunity to share what I’ve learned along the way, I decided to go for it and start my YouTube channel.”
