Teens and Oregon Mustangs

McMinnville, OR
 
Congratulations to all of our competitors in the 2011 Teens and Oregon Mustangs Youth and Yearling Challenge.  You all did a great job with the horses and we were impressed with the competition this year, it was tough.   We also saw good sportsmanship among the competitors with a couple of examples:  helping out with a helmet loan and supporting each other positively during the event.  Thank you Teens for all of you hard work and we hope to see you back next year for our 4th Annual Event.

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.
