Janice is my childhood friend, and although she is back in Oregon now, I am extremely proud of the small part I played on her journey to earn her USDF Gold medal. Janice competed in our barn through 4th level, and achieved success at the finals on Marian Berg's Daisy. Now she is riding her wonderful Grand Prix horse "Harry."

I watched Janice transition from a beautiful rider to a beautiful and extremely effective rider! That is what makes it possible for someone to reach Olympic Level in this sport. Janice, you did it!
