    Default Champagne Run, two thumbs up!!

    This was my second time showing CR... and it was such a fabulous show!

    Kudos to the organizers, all the volunteers, judges, everything. Everyone was friendly, on the ball, smiles, etc, etc, etc.

    I thought Cathy's course was BEAUTIFUL and rode just like XC should- everything was forward and there were some good questions, but no tricks or traps.

    All the competitors I came across were lovely as well, I had a course walk with darling Hannah and her mom Jackie from IL, spent a good amount of time chatting with Laura from CO in the prelim warmup and had a ride back from my BN course walk from another local eventer, which was much appreciated!!

    Couldn't be more thrilled with the weekend, my gal did her third training and finished in 7th with just a rail (and my stupid dressage error!!) and a SUPER XC. I left my CD in the truck- pics to come tomorrow!

    Agree! Congratulations to the organizers and officials... This was, per usual, an extremely well run event! Everything was well organized, well scheduled, well thought out. Thanks for all of the hard work!

    Does anyone know if there is a website for the photog there? One of my old racers was there competing.

    Congrats! Sorry we had to miss it. I heard even the footing was great as well.
