Youngest Judge to be placed on a state list (Michigan) Primary living -- judging, clinics, and seminars. I am promoting and building confidence in the youth of America. They are the future of the Equine Industry and the pride of our country! My biggest goal being a judge is to build confidence in the show ring, not have anyone be intimidated or afraid. I want them to know that dreams can be reached.

EQUITATION AND BRAIDING CLINICS
WITH KIMBERLY ALDER

Kim’s Mother was involved in the horse business so her horse sense came naturally. As a youngster she was involved in 4-H and became a proficient Hunter/Jumper competitor. Her Mother taught her the art of braiding early on and she earned summer vacation money by braiding at the local shows. She has traveled extensively in the horse show circles and is now based in Chelsea, MI. Kim has owned and operated Stoney Ridge Farm & Equestrian for many years. She has retired from showing, but does numerous lessons and braids full time on weekends. Kim will teach an equitation clinic for us this summer concentrating on the basics with calmness and positive thinking. Kim has also offered to teach a braiding class, which will be well received I'm sure!
