This year several members tested successfully and earned new Pony Club levels. At the spring test, Caleigh, Hannah and Elena tested successfully to D level. Sophie, being a new member, tested to D and D1 on her first test. Brittany also earned her D1. At our fall test, Nicole and Caleigh tested successfully to D1 level. Paighton and Brittany both gained their level D2. This fall, Naomi and Nakita tested for ther C2. Naomi gained her C2 while Nakita narrowly missed the requirements for the level.
Congratulations to all our candidates in 2007! In 2008 we hope to have Naomi certified for testing D-D2, and encourage our members to practise and test up when they are ready.

Mount Nemo's sole entry in the inaugural National Dressage competition was 16 year-old Kelsey Christensen.
Kelsey rode two separate technical tests on two different mounts placing 2nd overall. She also placed third in a "mystery" dressage test which required competitors to ride a test they had never ridden before.
Special thanks to Kelsey's groom Sophie LeBlanc also from the Mount Nemo Pony Club.
