Pine Top Farm welcomes a new show jumping course designer this weekend, Brody Robertson. Not only is Brody a top ranked Grand Prix rider, trainer and judge, he’s also a master carpenter and operates a show jump construction business. You may already be familiar with his work — I’ll bet you recognize more than of the fences in his website portfolio!
#WomensHistoryMonth Bit of the Day:
At the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, Karen Stives snagged the silver and became first woman to win an individual Olympic three-day event medal with her mount, Ben Arthur (check out this video!) She also helped the U.S. capture the team gold that same year. Karen’s involvement in eventing extended well beyond her retirement from competition — she later served as an FEI judge and U.S. team selector — and her legacy lives on in the Karen E. Stives Endowment Grant.
