FUNDRAISER FOR THE WEG!!

Going to the World Equestrian Games is a dream for every horse & rider combination. Hawley and Ginny have formed a fabulous relatioship & we're hoping to solicit some help from her amazing fans to help her get there!! Currently our favorite little fire cracker, Gin & Juice is the #1 ranked mare, holds the #1 Gold Cup Ranking, is the #6 horse in the country and Hawley is the #10 rider in the country. Not bad for a couple of girls!

"Going to worlds has been a dream of mines since I was a little girl. Having the Worlds on North American soil is even more amazing. Getting to ride my "little sports car" around on the green grass of Kentucky would make my dream come true. Ginny and I have shared our ups and downs which has included winning the Bromont CCI***, placing 9th at Rolex this spring and 3 trips to the hospital!!! I have grown to love Ginny more and more!!! I thank God that she is only 16 hands, because if she was any bigger, I would be not be able to ride her. She is the spunkiest, most athletic little horse I have ever sat on, and when she was younger this would get me in trouble as I spent more time on the ground that I did on her!!! All these characteristics are the reason now that she is so good!!! "

We have a big budget to get to the WEG and can only get there with your help! Between shipping to the Selection Trial at the AEC's, training camp in Ocala, hotel, flights, car rental, feed, supplements and general upkeep of Ginny.......our expenses our well over $10K.

Southern California Equestrian Sports, Inc. (SCES) is a non-profit organization dedicated to help equestrian riders and organizers raise tax deductible funds to compete in or support their National and International competitions throughout the United States. Hawley is setting up a fundraising effort in conjunction with the SCES in order to make her dreams of attending the WEG a reality. Won't you please help her get there?!!

You can donate through the SCES on our website at the following levels:

$10 - In kind donation
$20 - Receive an autographed photo of Hawley & Ginny from Rolex !
$50 - Receive custom spur straps created by Sue Church!
$100 - Receive an autographed hat from the WEG!



A big thank you also to Buck Davidson for letting Hawley stay at his place in Ocala and to Mrs. Jackie Mars for the use of her place at training camp in Ocala.
