Team USA Wins Olympic Dressage Bronze

13920671_10154416847490419_7954266842378957620_n

Dressage is a sport normally dominated by European teams, but today in Rio the United States has won its first team medal in the sport since 2004. Sitting perilously close to the medals behind the Dutch team, American rider Laura Graves and her horse Verdades had to put in a near-perfect test to clinch the bronze. The duo pulled it off with a phenomenal score of 80.364, securing the USA’s third place standing in the Team Dressage competition.

Teammates Steffen Peters, Allison Brock, and Kasey Perry-Glass will stand with Graves on the podium to receive their medals in a ceremony that is sure to be an especially sweet reward for Chef d’Equipe Robert Dover, who helped the USA win their last Olympic medal in dressage in 2004.

Chester County’s Own Phillip Dutton Wins Eventing Bronze

Phillip Dutton and Mighty Nice
Phillip Dutton and Mighty Nice

The 2016 Olympic Games in Rio are well underway, and the Equestrian competition began this week with Eventing. This three-phase competition includes tests in dressage, cross-country jumping, and stadium jumping, requiring horses and riders to be versatile, obedient, athletic, and quick-thinking.

Phillip Dutton, a Chester County, PA resident, put in a lovely dressage test on his mount Mighty Nice, putting him near the top of the leaderboard after the first day of competition going into cross-country. The course was a daunting one, with complicated combinations that caused two other American riders – Clark Montgomery and Lauren Kieffer – to retire and have a fall, respectively. Phillip and Mighty Nice, however, completed a clear round with just a few time penalties, narrowly avoiding a jump penalty at a skinny obstacle thanks to Phillip’s skillful riding.

Mighty Nice and Phillip completed the show jumping portion of the event with just one rail down, leaving them with a score of 51.8, and earning them the individual bronze medal in eventing. This would be Dutton’s very first Olympic medal as an American citizen, with Rio being his sixth Olympic Games.

In addition to his impressive Olympic resume, you may also recognize Phillip Dutton from our video, extolling everything Eastern Pennsylvania has to offer equestrians. This hometown hero has certainly made us proud back home here in PA! If you’re looking to buy your own Olympic-caliber equestrian property, be sure to contact us today!

Bethlehem Musikfest Is A Lehigh Valley Staple

IMG_2608

Since 1984, Bethlehem PA’s Musikfest has been the summer event that is not to be missed in the Lehigh Valley. With all musical generes represented, there is something to please everyone. What began as an event featuring 295 performances has nearly doubled in size since its start, today hosting over 500 musical acts on 14 stages. That’s not to mention the wide variety of food vendors and street performers that can be found all over downtown Bethlehem during the event! This year’s Musikfest is taking place from August 5-14. Set in the streets of Historic Bethlehem, Musikfest has the feel of a stroll through Quebec City, with acrobats and entertainers displaying their skills on every corner.IMG_2602

Several mounted police units are also on hand this year to help ensure the safety of festival goers, representing several different parts of the state from Western PA to Lancaster. Horses are excellent at helping officers with crowd control, and make police more approachable. These four-legged officers are helping to ensure that everyone at Musikfest has a fun time and stays safeIMG_2607

IMG_2610

Since its inception in the early 80’s, Musikfest has grown from a local music festival to an event where you can see “big time” artists like Lady Antebellum and The Avett Brothers, along with hundreds of other musicians, both popular and obscure, and many of the performances don’t require additional tickets. No matter what type of music you enjoy, there is something that will be sure to delight you at Musikfest!

The End of Dana Point Farm’s Legacy

Since 2008, Dana Point Farm in Lenhartsville, PA has dominated the Pennsylvania thoroughbred breeding industry. Owned by Gayle Gerth and operated by Maria Vorhauer, Dana Point quickly became the gold standard in breeding, foaling, training, and sales. The 60 acre Berks County facility has stood multiple winning stallions over the years, including Wiseman’s Ferry, sire of 2 time Breeder’s Cup and Horse of the Year winner, Wise Dan. Mare owners from across the country have brought their horses to Dana Point for outstanding care during pregnancy and foaling, and the farm has produced countless winners on the track. Over the past 8 years, Dana Point Farm has flourished and become a household name for those in the Pennsylvania thoroughbred racing community.

However, all good things must come to an end, and owner Gayle Gerth has decided to move on from this chapter of her life and sell the farm. It has been purchased by up-and-coming saddleseat trainer Alicia Owens, who will now call the facility home along with her string of Morgan and Saddlebred show horses. While it is a bittersweet time for Gerth and Vorhauer, Dana Point Farm will continue to be a place where horses at the top of their sport will be cared for and trained.

Alicia-214x300

Owens is building an equestrian legacy of her own, having already produced multiple regional, national, and world champions in the saddleseat discipline. She has transformed the farm from a facility focused mainly on breeding to a farm where the primary goal is to train horses and riders for the show ring. Poised for continued success, Owens looks forward to the future in her new Lenhartsville home.
