Support the Dream: Help Reach Pony World Championships

Just a small-town girl with a big dream.

I started with horses in 1978, doing pony club and eventing, until I discovered carriage driving at a show called Walnut Hill Pleasure Driving Competition. Years later, I discovered combined driving. It's a three-phase event: dressage, marathon, and cones. I bought a weanling Welsh pony named Fferm Gwenffrwd Onyx Star, and the adventure began. I trained him to drive and set out to make memories. We have won numerous national championships, which led us to set our sights on the final rung of our ladder: the Pony World Championships.

I qualified as the 1st pick of 3 drivers to compete at this year's prestigious FEI World Driving Championship.

It's an expensive venture, to say the least. Even the smallest donation would be most appreciated. The total cost will be $70,000. It's in Le Pin au Haras, France, from September 17-21.

Thank you for your support and consideration.
