Black Beauty Classic Dressage Show

Brava Louisa Zai-Ravaras and Kim Charney for putting together a wonderful one-day USDF recognized show at Willow Draw on May 4, 2025. The inaugural Black Beauty Classic was a beautiful, well-organized event and the weather and horses could not have been more perfect. Thank you for all of your hard work, dedication, and support of local animal welfare organizations!

Congratulations to Susan Ehlke Howe and Bozwell on earning their USDF Silver Freestyle bar after getting their last qualifying score (a 70%!!) at the Black Beauty Classic.  

Members, Alicia Schordine with Ivy and Robyn Callahan with Romeo, made their recognized show debut at the Black Beauty Classic, showing First Level. 


FWDC congratulates member Louisa Zai-Ravaras on obtaining the final score for her gold medal with her horse Figlio at the DDC Yellow Rose show at the Henderson County Fairgrounds on November 6, 2023. Way to go Louisa!
