Unfortunately, the afternoon lighting and speed of the event made for blurry pics. However, we still have some great pictures to help Ty celebrate his fantastic accomplishment!
Pam is an up-and-coming rider at Crystal Farm. Look for her to do great things !

More Awards for C.F. Riders

Though the youngest member of the Crystal Farm team attending this event, Lindsey has been a true asset to the group. Back in Dunstable she has donated her time helping Ty with the horses. At the Patriot Reining show she was in charge of the starting gate as well as scribing at times. She's done it all. She even had time to WIN the Youth event scoring two 70's during the weekend. Congratulations Lindsey!

Lindsey was 5th in level 1 and 7th in level 2. Tough competition. Lindsey marked a 70.! Pam and Sterling were 13th in level 1. Good class by all. Ty and Jammn came in 2nd in limited open. Andrea and Bucky were 3rd in limited non pro with a 72 their highest score ever.
Dually and I showed in the non pro for 1 of our best rides ever except for the last maneuver which took our score from a 73 to a zero Yikes!!
Well things happen. So we go on to our next ride. Janice showed in the ranch riding for the first time and came in 4th. So as you can see we had a very busy first day.
