Her solid compulsory scores and a high freestyle score of 7.387 put her in first place for the entire division.

Viva Vaulting!
HIGH SCHOOL EQUESTRIAN ATHLETE PROGRAM ANNOUNCED BY USEF
The United States Equestrian Federation announces the creation of the official
HIGH SCHOOL EQUESTRIAN ATHLETE PROGRAM for students in grades 9 -12.
USEF is the governing and educational body for all recognized equestrian sports in the US and
is paramount in supporting our international teams and Olympians. This program is designed to
recognize and encourage young riders and vaulters who train for and compete in disciplines
recognized by both USEF and the FEI, the World governing body of equestrian sports.
Viva Vaulting! provides the opportunity for Elbert and Douglas County students to enter into
the discipline of vaulting, a sport combining equestrian skills with gymnastics and dance
elements. The documented and rigorous training program is open to all interested students; no
prior riding or horsemanship skills are necessary. The program requires a one year commitment
to ensure progress for the student and to acquire the hours necessary for lettering in this
discipline.
Viva Vaulting! classes are conducted year round indoors and outdoors, weather permitting, at
Stellar Stables, in Parker, Colorado. Unlike other equestrian sports, vaulters do not need be
horse owners; individuals share horses for training and the costs of competition. This equates to
a very budget friendly sport for a wide range of families and creates an opportunity for students
to excel in a sport outside those traditionally offered in a school setting.
Viva Vaulting! is designed as a group class of individuals that bond as a team. The nature of
vaulting training allows for focus on individual strengths while encouraging the whole person to
develop physically, mentally, and emotionally. Vaulting success is not limited to those already
athletically gifted; most students, including those with special needs, may also participate and
benefit. Benchmarks allow an assessment of overall progress in individual training. Desire and
determination are the necessary prerequisites to joining this amazing and exciting horse sport!
