Congratulations to the new owners of our 2011 Mustangs. All twenty horses were adopted to families, several went home with their trainers, but others to new Mustang homes. Thank you to all of the adopters for your support of our program and our Teen Trainers.

Teens and Oregon Mustangs scholarships
We have awarded our first Teens and Oregon Mustangs scholarship to Mackenzie McCulloch who is attending OSU (Oregon State University) this year (2011-12). She was awarded with $500 toward her tuition and fees. She was a first year competitor and placed 6th in the competition with Ella this year. Congratulations to Mackenzie as our first Teens and Oregon Mustangs Scholarship recipient.
We have gotten a very generous donation from Lynn and Roger Berg Trust for $1000 annually to build our Teens and Oregon Mustangs scholarship fund. We will continue to encourage our graduating competitors to apply for annual scholarship offerings in 2012 and into the future.
