We want to hear from you...
 
The Amateur webpage is a great forum to share pictures and stories and we want you to be “seen” and “heard”.

By “seen” we want your pictures, let’s see your horse show pictures, candid pictures, and pictures of Amateurs having fun at Ontario circuits. And “heard” if you have a great story you want to share or a highlight in an Amateur’s show career we want to know about it.

Please send any pictures or stories to Sheryl Chillson, by  email

A Dream Come True...
Posted April 5, 2012, by Shawna Crawford
     
In March of 2010, I got a call from my trainer and friend, Rick Leek.  He asked me if we were interested in buying an aged halter gelding. My first response was, “why would we want another aged halter gelding, I already have one at home”. Ricks reply was, “not one like this”.

That was the beginning of a fun filled 2 years for me and one great horse…Won And Only Fella

It all happened so quickly.  We weren’t in the market for a horse, let alone one of this caliber, but we just seemed to be in the right place at the right time for this opportunity and everything quickly fell into place.
