"The Congress was huge, amazing, and slightly overwhelming, but I felt right at home," Chelsea says.
Looking back on 2011, I am elated with how last year has played out. I had always talked about how I wished we could travel to other states to show, and also go to more big shows. Now, recalling this past year, it's hard to believe that I was truly living my dream. For those who don’t know me, my name is Chelsea Carlson, I was the 2011 President of the Oregon Quarter Horse Youth Association, and devoted horse-crazed girl. |

According to Stephanie, taking Jackie out of retirement was completely unplanned but it makes her smile because she is the perfect horse for the job. Pictured here Jackie with Tate.
Stephanie Bain Gill of Erie, Michigan has been
showing horses since she was old enough to walk in
the show pen. Little did she know, she would own a
once-in-a-lifetime show mare and broodmare turned
therapeutic riding horse, turned show horse again
for Stephanie's son and mother. These types of
horses usually stay under the radar because they
don't win world championships, but they change the
lives of everyone around them for the
better.
