Vaulting in Vegas



November 7 and 8, Kim and Pete went to Las Vegas to help with "Vaulting in Vegas" (Region I Championships). Thinking they were going to have a quiet vacation, Pete and Kim were instantly enlisted to the ranks of organizational volunteers (a great learning experience in which they were more then happy to participate).

True to form, our vaulting couch, Pete, had to represent the Root Farm by strutting his own stuff. Pete competed in "one-star trot compulsories/freestyle" on a horse borrowed from Rick Hawthorne. He made us proud by finishing second in his class!

Of course, there was a little bit of sightseeing, and thanks to our vaulting mentors, the Hawthornes from California, Kim & Pete had a trip to the Vegas strip.
