The Horse Show will be held at the The Show Weekend was WONDERFUL!
|
Alexandra (Alex) Hartner, 18, died January 13, 2008, from injuries incurred in an automobile accident in which she was a passenger. But it is her life, not her death that is important to those touched by her incredible character. And live she did; simply put, Alex sparkled. The light that was Alex shone especially bright around all things equine. Those who loved Alex are establishing the Alex Hartner Memorial Horse Show to celebrate her passion for horses and to benefit two scholarship funds that have been established in her honor. Her family is thrilled that three organizations that were very dear to Alex, the St. Andrews Presbyterian College Equestrian Team (Alex was a freshman at St. Andrews and proud member of the team), the Horseman Association of Columbus County (Alex had the time of her life participating in their phenomenal shows), and Shingleton Farms (Alex kept her horse, Ace, there and was one of their favorite camp counselors) are coming together to create this horse extravaganza. We are also grateful that the show is being held at the Lake Waccamaw Boys and Girls Home Exhibition Center. Alex showed at this accommodating facility many times, and it was one of her favorite places in the world to be. To top it all off, one of the world’s leading designers of Jumper courses (he is designing the Stadium Jumper course for the Olympics in China) Steve Stephens has graciously agreed to come to Alex’s show with some of his prized jumps and to design our Jumper course! We know that Alex will be cheering with all of the participants at this incredible event who are helping to cherish her memory and having a blast in the process. Ride on.
