Dressage4Kids Benefit Auction

In January 2015, I was paired with Versace N., a sweet, talented Dutch warmblood who generously was donated to Dressage4Kids’, a non-profit organization founded by Olympian Lendon Gray. D4K provides education, connections, experiences, and life lessons to Dressage Youth in the United States. I have been blessed to be a part of several D4K outreach programs including the Emerging Dressage Athlete Program (EDAP), the Winter Intensive Training Program held in Wellington, Fl.; the Courtney King Dye Horse Mastership Clinic at Riveredge, Chesapeake City; the Youth Dressage Festival in Sureties, NY; and now the Horse Donation Program.

D4K has opened so many doors for myself and countless other youth across the country, so this online auction has been created as my way of expressing my gratitude to Lendon and her supporters ... while also paying it forward for future youth in the sport of dressage. Last year, $4,000 was raised for D4K thanks to this auction and I would LOVE to TOP THAT NUMBER THIS YEAR!

Please take a moment to peruse the listing of items and bid LOUD AND BIG :)
