Praying for you Rita and a quick recovery ❤️‍🩹

Rita Condon has spent years helping riders find confidence, care for their horses, and chase their dreams. She’s a meticulous hauler, beloved coach, and mentor in our equestrian community who always puts safety first.

On October 6th, Rita was involved in a truck and trailer accident. Her injuries mean she’ll be unable to work or coach for months, leaving her without income while rent or mortgage payments, utilities, everyday expenses, medical bills, and rehabilitation continue.

We created this GoFundMe so Rita can focus her energy on healing instead of financial panic. Thank you to everyone standing with her as we get this effort started. If you can, please visit our GoFundMe page to donate or share it with fellow equestrians, and feel free to DM me with questions. 🐴❤️

Letting go of my daughter’s pony that taught her how to ride, fall, win, lose, and care for others is an emotional milestone that marks the end of a season. When the pony goes to the next kid and continues to thrive is pure joy! Congratulations Ellie and Luigi on taking home the U18 English Equitation Division Championship! SHF finals in Moose Jaw. Super proud of your partnership.

Two weekends, Two shows!
“Zero to Hero“ was a phrase we heard at the warmup ring during the CET medals classes. Isn’t that the truth?!
Riding horses is always teaching us: Rhythm, pace, distance, and putting a line of fences together.
Being coachable, trying something new, supporting our partners in the ring.
Empathy, giving our horses the best we can, adjustability, sometimes pivoting, and then trying again.
We have seen a lot of this in the last two weeks. Well done and Congratulations!

Second week of RMSJ. A lot of rain 🌧️ and a bit sloppy. Big classes, Ribbons all around. Every time you step into the ring, you will learn something about your horse and your rhythm.

A wet week at RMSJ for the Willowbend crew but Michelle & Belgo make it look easy ☔️

We compete to find out what we are capable of….
We had quite a week of riding and competing! Championships, Medal winners and ribbons. We hit up every ring at Rocky, sand and grass. Early mornings, day time heat, late evenings and night checks.
Riding the biggest horses to the smallest ponies. Pretty proud of how our riders were able to compete on their own horses and be versatile on others. Congratulations riders!
