Our First Annual Easter Egg Hunt!

We hosted the first Annual Easter Egg Hunt at the Equestrian Center yesterday. It all started 3 or 4 years ago when Barn Manager Kellie Garrabrant did a small event for the barn staff and students that stayed to help with horse care over the Easter Break. Equestrian Program Director Peggy McElveen took the event to the next level, inviting all members of the St. Andrews community to participate in the fun. Eggs were hidden all around the courtyard outside of the TH building, in the covered and indoor, in the back schooling field and the dressage arena. Two classes were offered 11 and under and over 11. Kids, college students and adults raced to retrieve their eggs. Eventual winners in both divisions collected over 60 eggs a piece!

Counting the loot!

The 2013 Semi-Finals Championship Team!

Congratulations to the Zone 4, Region 3 IHSA Zone Qualifiers

Our regional IHSA hunter seat show ran smoothly today with representatives from nearly all of the 12 membership colleges present. Regionals is similar to a playoff game in a ball sport with the purpose of recognizing qualified riders and to determine who moves onto the Zones which is the final stepping stone before the National Championships. Team qualification is determined from cumulative points at the regular season shows with St. Andrews as Regional Champions for 2013 and already preparing for Zones in a couple of weeks. Today is all about individual qualifiers and St. Andrews students came through showing off their equitation skills and advancing to the next round. Congratulations to everyone who qualified for regionals!

Spring Break is Over!

Spring break is over and we are ready to take on the remainder of the semester. This Friday we have IHSA Hunter Seat Regionals at home. Thursday Carla and the IHSA Western team leave for Semi-Finals in Kentucky this weekend and Scot Evans will be doing a clinic Saturday and Sunday.


Over break I connected with Kate McAlinn from Sun Chaser Farm in Raleigh and she now has Marcus and Nikitta at her barn for her lesson program. These horses have worked hard for us and will now be great teachers for the kids that ride with Kate. We are still looking to place some of our horses who have served us so well, but are now ready for an easier life. If you are interested in any of these drop me an email.

Please contact Jackie Dwelle dwellejm@sapc.edu 910-277-5217 for more information and pictures.

Smudge - 1987 FB Grey TB Gelding 16.2h. Used in the St. Andrews and the CCCC lesson programs.

Robbie - Dk Bay gelding 15.3 h. Used in St. Andrews dressage program and therapeutic riding program and summer camp in Brevard, NC. Great at camp, loves small children and TH, not sure how old this one is.

Ben - 1989 Bay WB/xx Gelding 16.3h. Can be mean in stall but fine on crossties. Must be ridden in a hackamore or halter because he has TMJ. Would make a good trail/weekend horse.

Happy - 1988 Bay Swedish WB Mare 16.2h. Worked in the St. Andrews hunter seat program and been to camp several summers. This special lady deserves an excellent retirement home.

***Several others that cannot be ridden are also available as companions or pasture ornaments!***

New Baby for Jeremy and Jennifer!

Congratulations to Jennifer and Jeremy Sansbury on the birth of their son Greer who arrived on Friday.

Path International Region 3 Conference

Pebbles, Liz and ten students from St. Andrews attended the Region 3 conference in Hilton Head, SC this weekend. They were joined by 10 alumni who work in different areas of the therapeutic horsemanship industry. Sessions included information on managing not for profit businesses and creative lesson plans as well as lots of opportunities for networking. “I learned a lot,” said Megan White, “can’t wait to try some of this out with my lessons. It was also a lot of fun!”

ANRC Warm Up Competition & Logo Wear For Sale!

The ANRC team travelled to Cottonwood Farm in Vanceboro to compete in the 3^rd annual Horsemanship Competition sanctioned by the USHJA and ANRC. Click here for a full report.

We are very excited to report that after many requests we have an online store where you can purchase St. Andrews Equestrian logo wear. There is a large selection of polo shirts, T-shirts, button downs, fleeces, and hats etc. Currently the only logo available at the online store is with a jumping horse, but we hope to open new stores with logos for western, dressage and Ride-Like-A-Knight in the future. The neat part of this program is that with every purchase a portion comes back to the Equestrian program. A win-win for everyone that has been asking about where to buy logo wear and for the program! Happy Shopping click here.

 

Fabulous Weekend for All Equestrian Team Members!

“Intense” is one word to describe our weekend in the Equestrian Program with all three disciplines competing at their final regular season shows. There are many individual successes and stories to share but for this post I’ll focus on the results. My team (dressage) fought hard at a double header hosted by Averett University. Lindsey Agaliotis and Kristen Parker qualified for Nationals in First Level and Intro respectively. After a lot of ties were broken Averett beat us by 4 points.


At home on Friday the western team led by Coach Carla Wennberg won the IHSA Regional Championship advancing them to Semi-Finals in Kentucky in March. Ella Brave earned the title of Reserve Champion AQHA High Point Rider. On Saturday Ella Brave, Michelle Hustad, Dugan McDermott, Brittany Powell, Jake Nix, Kali Cram and Katie Mosca all qualified as individuals for Semi-Finals.

On to Hunter Seat! Sunday this team travelled to ECU. This team placed third overall but held onto their regional lead with 248 points to UNC-Chapel Hill’s 213 points. Individually Senior Kim Graves won the Cacchione Cup (high point rider) for the region and advances to Nationals. The team will compete at Zones hosted by St. Andrews in early April. Individual riders who qualified for Regionals at this show were Tori Burkey and Kim Graves who join several St. Andrews students already qualified.

Reserve Regional Champion IDA Team

Regional Champion Western IHSA Team

Snow Last Weekend; This Weekend Rain

After last weekend’s snow we are looking forward to a wet weekend coming up and once again it is busy! Friday the western team hosts the last regular show of their competitive season at the equestrian center. They are looking to hold on to their lead 18 point lead over NCSU and qualify for Semi-Finals in Kentucky in March. Saturday is IHSA Western Regionals which qualifies individuals for Semi-Finals. Friday evening the team is holding a dinner on campus for the region. The year-end awards for western will be given out at this event.


Saturday the dressage team heads to Danville, VA for a double header show at Averett University to decide the regional winners in intercollegiate competition. The dressage team trails Averett by one point. With riders in contention in three of the four IDA divisions, this weekend’s shows should be intense.

Sunday the IHSA hunter seat team will travel to Eastern Carolina for the last regular show of their season. The hunter seat team has a 29 point lead over UNC-Chapel Hill with ECU just a few points back. This weekend will decide who takes the title of Regional Champion for all three disciplines and advances to the next level.

At home Saturday is Admitted Students Open House. We are looking forward to welcoming many future students and their families to the campus and the equestrian center.

Riding in a Snow Globe!

The St. Andrews Equestrian Program hosted our spring semester dressage show Saturday.  Being in the covered with the snow coming down we felt like we were in a snow globe! The snow did not stop the almost military precision of the show organization and certainly enhanced the atmosphere of the show! (Have you ever watched snow fall to Rhapsody in Blue? Thanks to Eq. staff member Andrew Michael we had a superb movie sound track all day long.) Riders from all disciplines worked together to prepare the horses, time warm up rides and run tests between the judge and the scoring office. If you have never attended an event at the equestrian center you have not witnessed the “events management machine” in action; our students rise to the occasion magnificently. Sophomore Claire Pollard served as Horse Show Chair to organize and coordinate the workforce.

The St. Andrews dressage team ended the day in third place. Senior Lindsey Agaliotis (who drew the first ride of the day) had an outstanding ride earning 78.108% and the high point rider award for the day. Although a 78% in academia earns a grade of a “C”; in dressage this is considered an outstanding score. (Dressage riders are usually very happy with scores around 65%.) Lindsey had several scores of 9 out of 10 for various movements on her test which was also the most advanced test that was offered in today’s competition. The dressage team travels to Averett University next weekend for a double header to end the 12/13 competitive season.

Dressage Seat Equitation has been added successfully in other IDA regions so we decided to try it out. It is currently not a recognized class but we hope to have a national championship division in the near future. The format is the same as any equitation class where riders are judged on their position and effectiveness. (The horse is not judged just the rider.)

 

First Level Lindsey Agaliotis stands in second place with 18 points one point behind the regional leader with 4 riders chasing them with 13 points. At Upper Training Brianna Carter is tied for second place with 12 points trailing a 20 point lead. At Lower Training Sarah Jones leads the region with a one point lead of 16 points. At Intro Kristen Parker maintains her commanding lead of 21 points with the closest challenger at 12 points. Our last two shows are next weekend and will decide who goes to Nationals at Mount Holyoke College in April.

Dressage Home Show Sat.

This Saturday’s dressage show is an important one for the St. Andrews dressage team. We currently have a 2 point lead over Averett. The Intercollegiate Dressage Association (IDA) scores each team’s win with 7 points while 5 points goes to the second placed team. Unlike the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA) which accumulates points earned at each show throughout the competitive season. Mathematically it is easy to see that our two point lead is easily lost. After this weekend’s home show we travel to Averett the following weekend for a double header Saturday and Sunday. These last two shows of the year gives them a significant home team advantage. We are practicing hard and trying to be smart about who rides at which shows.


Also at Saturday’s show we will be hosting a couple of Dressage Seat Equitation classes. This will be a first for our region. Other IDA regions have hosted them and they have been well received. Our show on Saturday is a relatively small one, so we decided to give dressage seat eq. a go and offer more opportunities to compete to our member teams. The team is ready to compete and we hope to host a well organized show. Good luck to all the IDA team members and many thanks to the hunter seat and western teams who are helping with horse holding and show organization.

Success for Dressage and Western Teams !

The Equestrian program had a busy weekend hosting western shows at home and sending the dressage team to NCSU on Saturday. Students and coaches enjoyed much success at both shows. At NCSU the dressage team won first place honors with Sarah Jones winning high point rider in lower training and Kristen Parker continuing her winning streak in Intro B to accumulate 21 division points, almost certainly guaranteeing her an individual slot at Nationals. “Assistant Coach Lindsey and I are struggling with our strategy for the last three shows,” said Coach Jackie Dwelle. “We host next Saturday and Averett has significant home team advantage Feb. 23 & 24 with a double header to close out the regular season. Kristen will point out with one more win and then it will be up to our other riders to step in and earn the points. It is going to be a couple of busy and exciting weeks!”

Junior Sarah Jones who scored 67.5% for the Reserve High Point Rider for the day said, “Hard work really does pay off! And having a great team to help and support me throughout the day makes everything a lot easier.”

Just Another Weekend at the Barn!

February is going to be one of those busy months with shows and events happening at home and away. Take this weekend for example. We are hosting back to back western shows Saturday and Sunday at the Equestrian Center to help out our friends from NCSU who were planning to host but ran into difficulties. The Ride-Like-A-Knight Therapeutic Horsemanship program is hosting a PATH Int. Mentor Training Workshop led by Pebbles Turbeville and Sandy Webster. As if that was not enough for one weekend, the dressage team travel to Buckhorn Farm in Apex, NC to compete in an IDA show hosted by the NCSU dressage team. Social Media Kim Graves and myself will be working hard to report results from the two shows and share the experiences of the students participating in the TH workshop.

IHSA Hunter Seat 2-2-2013

Saturday was cold as is the norm in early February, however it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the St. Andrews Equestrian Team as they pulled together to host our first IHSA show on the new footing in the Dansby Arena. The addition of tons of sand and the recycled sneaker footing made the arena visually lighter as well as springier for the horses. Several of the older equines showed their delight with the shock absorbing surface with very forward gaits!


Coach Arrigon led the team to a clear victory earning 43 points to UNC – Chapel Hill’s 37. Matt’s comment, “Yes, we had a good day…” summed up the event for all concerned. For Seniors Sami and Kali Cram this was the last IHSA home show and they ended it in style with a three way tie with Junior Abi Skillman for high point rider. The ride off was bareback on western horses and Sami came out ahead of Kali and Abi.

Scrimmage with USC

This weekend’s scrimmage with the University of South Carolina Gamecocks was an excellent opportunity for both schools to practice their teams against different opponents and add to their competitive arsenals. The hunter seat team competed in the covered arena and the western riders were in the outdoor ring. Members of the dressage team and the Therapeutic Horsemanship club assisted with horse holding and preparation. Coach Wennberg videotaped all her riders and the USC riders and plans to get together with her team this week to go over the tapes to further their understanding of competitive strategy and showmanship. Riders won brushes, ball caps and M&Ms instead of ribbons which added to the fun of the day. In the spirit of the day no points were tallied. St. Andrews won 7 classes and USC 6, making for a very fair and even competition. Results for the St. Andrews competitors are below.

Busy Cold Weekend

The weather is bitterly cold today with sleet forecast for this afternoon. Matt and a group of IHSA Hunter Seat riders left early this morning for Bridgewater College in Virginia for the Invitational Tournament of Champions IHSA show tomorrow. After the arctic blast today and tonight the temperatures warm up again and we should in for a reasonable weekend. Sunday we are hosting a new competition for us; a head to head or scrimmage with the University of South Carolina Gamecocks. The IHSA Hunter Seat and Western teams will be taking on the USC NCAA teams starting around 1:00, should be a fun event! We will be updating the reults from both of these events on our facebook and twitter feeds. #SAUihsa.

MLK Day of Service

Today is the MLK day of service. This has become such a popular event at St. Andrews that we are able to include campus facilities in the project. We are expecting 50+ volunteers at the equestrian center today to help with projects. These include removing rust spots from the covered arenas, cleaning the stall walls (with 120 stalls that is a huge project in itself), picking up trash on Hasty Road, and cleaning the white fences. Looking forward to getting lots done.

Excellent Weekend in Aiken!

By Kim Graves

Three members of the St. Andrews University “A” show team competed at the Aiken Winter Classic “AA” show in Aiken, South Carolina over the weekend.


Freshman Anastasia MacNaught rode St. Andrews’ owned Eastern Shore (Jojo) to placings of 2nd, 3rd and two 6th in the Pre-Adult Hunter division. “The show team has been a great opportunity! I absolutely love it! Everyone supports and helps one another! I am so glad I have been able to show Jojo. He is a great horse with an awesome personality and loves to show!” said Anastasia. MacNaught also earned a 3rd, 4th, and 6th place in the equitation division of the Pre-Adults.

Senior Kali Cram knew going to the show that there were going to be some challenges ahead when a last minute horse change came up. Kali rode Charmander CF who is a very young horse and has not had a lot of experience at the shows. Kali was happy to take the young horse to help him gain some show experience. Together they placed 5th in the .85 meter jumper class.

“The students rode fabulously and came home with good ribbons and great learning experiences. They progress with each ride and are always eager to understand the techniques involved and the results from their horses” stated Coach Kelsi Peterson.

Sami Cram had a stellar weekend in Aiken aboard CDS Stables owned Lucifer De Flobecq (Archie). At only their third show together the pair brought home the champion ribbon in the Low Child/ Adult 1.00 meter jumper division. With 16 entries in the division a win in the first class and second place in the second class secured Sami the championship. Sami also took home an 8th place prize in the $500 Low Child/Adult jumper classic.

“Aiken was a blast! Great team mates and great weather! We took some young horses and Kali and Kelsi did a great job with them both. Anastasia rode Jojo amazingly and Archie was perfect as always! Overall a fabulous weekend!” commented Sami Cram.

Coach Peterson will travel with the show team next to Raleigh, North Carolina in February.
