Based out of Elverson\, PA. Jess is an amazing braider. She has a full-time job as a Financial Advisor but spends many of her weekends braiding to help defray the cost of her own show horse. \n\n\n\n“Growing up I had a pony that always rubbed her braids out and had to braided each morning before a show. My parents were so generous in supporting my love of showing that they said my show schedule could remain the same if I learned to braid my own pony. Not only did it save them some money\, but it taught me what it means to work hard\, have independence\, and prioritize wants and needs. If I wanted to show I needed to braid my own pony. 15 years of braiding my own horses and 8 years of professionally doing so on the side I am so thankful to my parents for pushing me to learn. My braids took years to develop\, but through lots of practice and hundreds of horses later I now have one of the most rewarding jobs. Knowing my braiding plays a part in the turnout of your horse in the show ring brings me so much pride and joy.” Jess \n\n\n\nSign up by emailing OVCTA member Annemarie Cochrane by or before Sunday\, March 22nd. amcochrane1@gmail.com OVCTA members are free; non-members are welcome for $10.

For a part of her career she was a hunter jumper rider training her own horses as well as working in a sale barn that had jumpers and dressage horses. From there she was able to hone her skills in proper training of young horses and developing them to be the best of their ability. When Cameron teaches she focuses on core basics for rider and horse such as balance\, suppleness\, straightness\, and overall ability to understand the process of how these things can make every ride better. Whether your horse needs some new exercises to help make them stronger\, or to work through a specific problem\, or needs fresh eyes to see what’s next in their training\, she can help! Cameron’s training is all goal orientated\, making sure the process is clear and easy enough for horse and rider to end in a good place and some homework to take home! Cameron now has her USDF Bronze with distinction\, and USDF Silver medal and competes in all the levels up to the I-2. Cameron has brought horses and riders from training level all the way through the Grand Prix as well as produced many championship rider pairs. Having competed through many levels and knowing many of the tests intricately\, Cameron can help you develop some tricks for test riding in the arena\, and how to help your test flow overall! \n\n\n\nTo reserve and schedule your spot\, contact Kim Leppold at kimleppold@yahoo.com\, or 610-574-3378 URL:https://ovcta.org/event/dressage-clinic-with-cameron-banks/ LOCATION:Millstone Farm\, 280 Porters Mill Road\, Pottstown\, Pennsylvania\, United States CATEGORIES:OVCTA Event ORGANIZER;CN="Kim Leppold":MAILTO:kimleppold@yahoo.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260523T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260523T235959 DTSTAMP:20260426T173925 CREATED:20251220T214959Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251220T215001Z UID:2288-1779494400-1779580799@ovcta.org SUMMARY:Schooling at Ludwig's Corner DESCRIPTION:Schooling at Ludwig’s Corner\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLudwig’s Corner Schooling – May 23\, 2026\n\n\n\nBack by popular demand!
