Show Results 2002

*September 15-21, 2002 Grand National Show and Sale, Perry, Georgia

What an incredible show Robin had this year! She took 16 horses she had in training and 14 of the horses placed in at least one class. She trained horses for four amateur owner riders and all four received placements in at least one class. And, of course, the week was topped off by Henrietta's induction into the PFHA Hall of Fame. Once again, Greener Pastures and the Ratliff family had an excellent National show. Congratulations to John Solomon IV, John Solomon V, Chase Cobb, and Nancy Mills on their amateur owner accomplishments at the show and throughout the year.

As usual, the Piedmont show was exciting with very competitive classes. Robin took 12 horses up to Asheville with the help of several clients including Nancy Mills, Denise Van Ness, and John Solomon. Thanks to everyone for the help! While we were there, Beth Kleiber and Amanda Hamilton David helped out tremendously with the horses especially those Bellas Formas classes. And, Mrs. Hitchcock and Henrietta were there to keep us all straight. We could not have done it without them. All in all, it was a good trip and a good show.
