The EN mailbox blew up on Sunday with photos, videos, and first-hand accounts of Snowmageddon 2012 at the Event at Three Day Ranch. Yes, it snowed four inches in “sunny” California, while most of us to the East were sweating with 80-degree temps (in MARCH!). The weather is nothing if bizarre, and as eventers we just learn to shake our heads and get on with it. Competitors wish to extend their thanks and appreciation to the organizers, officials, and volunteers at Three Day Ranch who did a super job continuing the competition to allow riders and horses the chance to achieve needed qualifying scores.
Bunnie Sexton won the Advanced-Intermediate with Rise Against, and Geriann Henderson won the Intermediate with Kingslee. Congrats to them and all others who braved the elements to complete the event!
