In Lakeview, MI When we moved to Michigan in 1995 I was able to do what I have always wanted. New doors where opened by some of the nicest people I have met in the horse world and I never looked back. I offered boarding/Stallions welcome, Stallion management. Mare & foal board. Foaling with 24 monitoring & Imprinting. Weaning Services. Hauling. Veterinary Services & all general heath, dental, farrier Care & Special treatments. I also catered to the Handicap for Boarding & Lessons. Lessons in basic horse care & trail riding. My students/boarders have gone to State Parks for day trips & have camped overnight when they were ready. There are many challenges that await the trail rider & I would prepare the beginner rider for them along with the proper horse care. 2000 I bought Image Of Champions as a baby. He has been a childhood dream come true but I never thought I would end up at any World Show let alone have a horse win numerous World Championships. |

| 2001 APHA "What A Lucky Deal" Congratulations to Lucky!!! Lucky was raised & owned by Sunrise Farm till July 2006. Due to our up coming retirement I looked for the right home she deserved since she didn't fit into my breeding program.. Diane Hill is now the owner of this special mare and shares her with the inner city children. Thanks to Diane, Lucky is now an Official Therapeutic Social Worker for at risk children in the City of Findlay, Ohio. A special horse with a special owner & special children. I couldn't have picked a better home for her!! When I say I have a special horse & I am looking for the right home, I mean it! I do not think twice about killing a sale. Lucky was a perfect example of how I look for the right home to match the horse. I still miss her daily! |

| I have trail ridden since I was 8 years old up & down the rocky terrain in the mountains in Westfield PA on my late Uncles spread and riding with my best friend Martha in Harbourton, NJ. Being on the back of one of Gods greatest creations swimming in a pond where ever I could find one in Pennington, N. J. where I grew up. My horse was my loyal & best friend while I was growing up. Or riding the beach in Ponta Vedra, Florida in the 80's before it was built up, in the surf having the waves smashing against you & your horse, knowing your horse is enjoying it as much as you. Taking a horse that has just been broke to ride on their first camping trip. That was Champ. These are only few of my wonderful experiences out on the trail then I was introduced to the show world. Soon I started sewing which I have done for 35 years making and selling Western Pleasure Showmanship Show Shirts. They are all created & designed by me and now offering Equine Farm and Pet Care. Once again I have been so fortunate to be able to live my life doing what I love to do. I have met some wonderful people and thank them for everything they have done for me and my horses. I also want to thank my husband for standing by me the whole time watching my dreams come true. God has truly blessed me with an awesome husband, daughters, friends & family. |
| My husband decided to retire in 2008 therefore we retired Champ then proceeded to make our plans to move to Florida to be near all of our family. Now we are settled in our new home in FL. We are enjoying kayaking, fishing, the beach of course and spend time with our daughters and other family. When we have the time Champ gets ridden on the trails or learning Dressage. |
