I'm Christina. I ride at Cloverdale Farm, and have been riding for about 4 years on and off. I ride English, and have recently started jumping. I love watching Dressage, and would like to try Western (more specifically, reining) one day. I don't own/lease a horse, although I did look after Penney for a few months in 2004. I've never shown, but I consider myself the photographer. My pictures can be found here: community.webshots.com/user/_chrissy_

Hi! Im Michelle. I recently bought a Quarter Horse Gelding. He is turning 5 in April and he is 16hh, and his name is Nickos. I ride him english, but he was started Western. Keep an eye out for us this upcomming show season ! I've been riding for 10ish years now. Ive been allover the place through out the years, But I now board/work at King Ranch in Portugal Cove, NL. I used to own a NL Pony X QH, named Mai. I owned her for alomst 3 years, but sadly had to sell her because I qucikly out grew her. She is owned by Jason King and she is at King Ranch now too [Updated because Ive sold Mai, leased Classie, then bought Nick since I last posted!]

I'm Marsha. I have been riding for 13 years, and originally started lessons with Paula Flood back in Grandfalls. I own Boone, a 12 year old NF X QH/Clyde. I've known him since he was 2 weeks old, and saddle broke him myself when he was 3. He came to NS to live with me when I was going to university, and I did some showing there for two summers. Now we are proud boarders of Cloverdale. Boone loves it there, as do I!
I ride English and enjoy hunter/jumper and some dressage. But my favourite thing to do is just go out for a hack and enjoy my horse.
Aside from horses my interests include: singing, reading, writing, and traveling. And marine science - I have a B.Sc in Aquaculture.
Hm, what else can I tell you - I have a tattoo. And I love peanut butter sandwiches. And when I was 2 years old I peed on the floor in Peoples Department store. ;D

I'm training a Norwegian Fjord named Tyra from the US. I'm also the vice president of the student council of my school.

I'm Sarah, im 15 and have been riding for 8 years. I rode for 2-3 years at Avalon Equestrian on a little mare named Paddy whom my mom's friend owned. I rode western at Avalon, and even though I really liked it I wanted to ride english so I could jump. I moved to Clovelly when I was around 10, and rode there untill I was ..13? I think that was when I moved to Equine, although I can't remember specifically how old I was. I love Equine and it's because of my coach that I now have my horse, Brandon, a 4 y/o bay mainly TB gelding. Haha if you want to really get into it hes 7/8ths TB and 1/8 qh lol.

Well, let's see, I'm Jess. I live in Mount Pearl, and I ride at AEC. I've been there for about, oh, six years or so, but before that I rode my uncle's NF pony Tom. I am completely in love with Thunder, a (almost) 5 year old STB x gelding, owned by a friend of mine. I leased him for part of last summer, and any time I'm at the barn (which is usually Saturday's and Sunday's, in the summer pretty well almost every day) I always take him in and give him a good grooming, seeing as his owner doesn't get up much. As of right now I ride a five-ish year old green mare named Queen in my lessons. Very pretty girl, a tad psycho, but we love her, besides, green horses are fun, right? I've never actually shown off grounds, I've never really had an interest in showing all that much until now. Currently I'm searching for someone to lease/show for this summer. community.webshots.com/user/bleak_decemberThose are my pictures. I do have many, many more, somewhere or another. I guess the Webshots album will just keep getting added to.
