The EQUUS Film Festival - continued
Newport International Polo in their 25th anniversary season. GOODNIGHT LADIES
Tracy McKenna: “I have met Mrs. Hannum [subject of the documentary], and I am familiar with the area, so I am curious about this fi lm.”
A documentary about one of the world’s most legendary lady Masters of Fox Hounds, Nancy Penn Smith Hannum presided over the Ches- ter County, Pennsylvania, countryside for half a
century. Directed by her granddaughter, Christianna Hannum, who will be available for a meet and greet after the movie. Also expected to speak will be Joe Davies, who plays an amusing role in the fi lm.
THE STORY OF TOTILAS
Cass Ingles: “Totilas since he’s awesome, and I never get sick of seeing him prance around!” Carolyn del Grosso: “Totilas, of course!” Totilas came, saw, and conquered the dressage
world with his rider Edward Gal. Together they won the heart of millions all over the world, winning three titles at the FEI World Eques-
trian Games and setting multiple record scores in Kentucky in 2010.
THE WILD PONIES OF CHINCOTEAGUE
Kristen Barth: “It is local to Maryland and I have always been curious about the program in place to manage the herd. For those same reasons, I am also interested in T e Feather Fund. We personally know a couple of kids who have received ponies through the program and would like to learn more about their story.”
Legend has it that a Spanish Galleon carrying ponies crashed off the Atlantic coast. T e ponies swam free of the sinking ship and reached the New World. Descendants of that lost band live today, wild and free, on the barrier island, of Assateague, half of which is in Maryland, and half of which is in Virginia. In Maryland, the Assateague ponies are owned and managed by the
Maryland Department of Natural Resources. On the Virginia side, the ponies are owned by the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company, which is famous for its Pony Penning Days. To keep the population in check, foals are auctioned each year at the conclusion of Pony Penning. Sabrina Dobbins made a winning bid and took a pony home, and it changed her life. “T is pony was my light in the darkness. I was in severe depression - I was self-harming. My pony pulled me up. I named her Blessing.”
