The Aiken Winter Classic I was held in Aiken, SC during the cold winter days for January 3-5, 2014. Despite the extreme cold weather our riders had a great weekend! Courtney Faulkner and Zam I Am were Champion in the Low Child/Adult. Elise George and Madison made her debut in the Junior Hunters and had great ribbons! Alex Amodeo and Czarmani made their debut in the Amateur Owner Division winning the Amateur Owner Equitation Class! This was Alex’s final show before she leaves for UNCG this week. We will miss her this Spring. Good Luck Alex!
