kicking off the summer with an issue dedicated to the horses that teach us how to be good riders, good horsemen and good people. We couldn’t think of a better photo to celebrate these horses then this photo of a smil- ing three-year-old Abigail Plume be- ing led around her first show aboard her trusty steed Goldmine. The photo was submitted by her mother Courtney Plume and was taken by Can Cam Photography. Inside this issue, read about McDonogh’s 90+ year old riding program, Potomac Horse Center’s closing and the most popular lesson horse breeds here in Maryland.
