Our
breeding farm, located in the heart of the California valley,
is dedicated to producing oustanding Connemara ponies for
the entire family to enjoy. Connemaras are hardy, versitle
ponies, and we try to bring out the best in each foal raised
on our farm. We take pride in promoting our Connemaras
through a number of competitive and non-competitive venues.
Our
newest additon to the farm has settled in! Bailiwick
Dublin is and elegant, sport pony mare.
She is a large pony, and is the perfect height
for a serious young rider or
an
adult
looking
to
"downsize". Bailiwick Dublin will
stay at Featherstone for training
in hunters and dressage and will be availble for
purchase in the future. This mare is one to watch...
This
last weekend was a hot one! Even with temperatures reaching
well in to the 90's and even the 100's, Featherstone
Connemaras traveled
to Paso
Robles, CA for the ACPS Region X Connemara Show, also known
as the WCCS (West Coast Connemara
Show).
The WCCS is a wonderful opportunity to appreciate other
Connemara
pony enthusiasts
within
our region
and
celebrate our love for this magnificent, Irish pony breed.
Featherstone Nightsong was the Leprechaun
Cup Winner, awarded to the First Place Yearling
Purebred Connemara in the Futurity class. *Blossom
(IRE) came
along to enjoy the Saturday Night "Celtic Caper" and participated
in the fun and games classes - and even came away
with a blue ribbon in the Bareback Class! Even with the
heat, it was a wonderful show, and we are very proud
of
our ponies.
Cheers
to a Cool Summer!
