In Canada, we go to 21. are you sure? I can't imagine anyone reaching the "A" 
level
before 16.  I think the youngest on record was 16.

For all those interested, pony club is a nice way to introduce the young rider.
You don't need a fancy horse, or expencive stuff, just safe tack and a pony. 
there
are lots of different things to participate in, and a wide variety of events.  
For
example, if I had been a year older, I could have gone to south africa this 
year,
to compete on borrowed horses/ponies in their huge show.  It ranges in 
difficulty
from those who have never ridden before, to those who move on to national and
international events.

Hi Group,  
Fjord news from California is that finally I have experienced a dream! 
The first horse show for my daughter who is 7 and Hakar, her 13.3h, 14yr
Fjord (Hestdalen blood).  They did famously and for a first show I was
so please to begin this chapter of our lives.  They placed second,
great for motivation and still to work harder to gain the first place
ribbon.  Hakar was his usual friendly self, even wanted to say hi to the
judge in the middle of the ring... oops!  Abbey was so excited she wanted
to ride in EVERY class... even the Handy Hunter class.   
Next, we're heading to Pony Club - did you all know that this club isn't
for just ponies?  Children 8 - 16, learn equestrian and stable management
skills including rallies, shows and lots of instruction.  Out here in
California, it's nice to find equestrian emphasis as opposed to all the
western interest.  Abbey likes English as her mom did 40+ years ago, but
who's counting, right!
KIDS on AOL! Don't forget Fjord Chat on Thursday nights, 6 Calfiornia
time, in the Town Square of AOL chat, look for Fjord Chat.  

For Amy White:  Has anyone more information about the Fjords that need
homes in Nebraska? (Woodrow's?)  I had his number but haven't been able to
reach him.

Happy Ridin'
