SPW Equestrians

Regionals looked a little different for us this year, and I couldn’t be more proud of this team. 💚

This season these riders showed up through challenges, changes, and moments that tested them far beyond the arena. And they handled it all with grit, maturity, and a level of composure that speaks volumes about who they are—not just as riders, but as people.

They supported each other, stayed focused, and represented this program with integrity from start to finish.

No matter the results, I’m incredibly proud of the resilience and character they showed this weekend. This group made it very clear what matters—and that’s what I’m most proud of. 💚

On to the next. 💚

Congratulations to our new region 7 president elect Miranda Jaggars from Rising J! I’m so excited to see what your passion for these kids and this program brings to our region. We are in good hands!
