A huge CONGRATS! to Cacie and Jessica for their awesome riding at Champs. Cacie's team took 3rd in HM and 1st overall, and Jessica was the only rider in the whole eastern half of the USA to have the nerve to compete in Horse IV. Great job girls, we're very proud of you both! There are some great pix of the event on the PC website...
