Horse Decorating Contest

The White Star Showstoppers had a great turn out for the Horse Decorating Part of the World Championships 2006. They were displayed during the horse show. Along with many others through out the country, they were judged and auctioned off. The proceeds goes to the American Saddlebred Youth Association. Below are just a few of the fantastic entries.

This was a great opportunity for local barns to get together and sale their equestrian items. Plus for the chefs of the group to compete in our first Chile Cookoff at our new home. Kelli Mealey took direction over the consignment sale which made over $1000.00 for the White Star Show Stoppers Youth Group. We had 20 plus entries in the Chile Cookoff which was very competitive and judged in several categories.

The White Star Stables Team always enjoys the Pomona show grounds and setting. The stalls are close to the arena, great exibitor's to show with, plus a one of a kind fair with amazing Fire Works at night. What tops it off is we had a great show with Grand Championships in the following: Three Gaited Amateur Aphrodite's Tears with Lynda Lord, Three Gaited Park Propheteer with Suzanne Lyons, Three Gaited Country Pleasure Junior Rider News Stand with Hannah Vandeventer, Country Pleasure Driving Mardi Gras Mambo with Paul Newton for Leanne Williams. Plus we took home Championships in the Walk Trot 10 & Under Holy Fruit Salad & Kirwan Kennedy. Finally in the Academy Division Joe and Ryan Kelledy both took a blue with Thunder At Midnight in Walk Trot 10 & Under and Walk Online.

A Visit From Raising Arizona Kids Magazine 2006

As we pulled into the long, neatly landscapped driveway at White Star Stables in Cave Creek, I felt like we'd entered another world. Even much of the language was unfamiliar to me.

I stepped across a patio into a cozy lounge that serves as a gathering place for clients. One more step and I was standing on a thick layer of wood chips in a sweet-smelling stable where several beautiful, proud horses stood erect in their stalls.

White Star relocated to this new site last year, with many hours and several months sculpting an elegant, meticulously groomed ranch from a scrap of desert that wouldn't have shown much potential to the rest of us. The result is nothing short of breathtaking: simple but classy, quiet and amazingly clean. Horses, dogs and even Araucanas Chickens (they lay blue/green eggs) share this space in complete harmony.

The Latest Edition to White Star!

 

We have big plans for these Guineas! They are very territorial, so we hope they can roam the property. Plus we expect they will be entertaining to watch.
