This year’s event brought veterans together from Arizona, Texas, and California to participate and compete with their peers. The event included a veteran-only boot camp, where the veteran exhibitors worked with NSBA professionals to sharpen their skills and practice for the competition. Competitors, their families, and riding center representatives shared dinner and camaraderie with a warm welcome from Ingrid Miller and remarks from Jeanna Irby, retired Air Force, and this year’s Heroes on Horses at Arizona Sun Circuit Western Pleasure class winner.
