     Cape Cod Bay & Sammie Liguori

In Memory of...

  • Cape Cod Bay, fondly known as "Chip". Chip was a RIHA staple for many years, not only with his loving owner Samantha Liguori, but with many other riders as well. He was successful in the equitations, the hunters and the jumpers. Many riders qualified on Chip for countless Medal finals and he won many year-end awards and ribbons at finals. He will be very sadly missed, not only by the Liguoris and the entire Hunter Ridge family, but by many, many others whose lives were touched in some way by this wonderful horse.

Congratulations to...

  • ...Christina and Gabriella Cottiero for leasing Will, aka "Formal Attire" this summer from Mount Holyoke College. Thanks to our trainer, Bob Graham for helping us to lease Will!
  • ...the Phoenix Rising IEA team on a very successful 2009-2010 season, and especially congratulate the members of the team who qualified for the IEA Nationals this year in Georgia, Daniel Forte, Christina Cottiero, Chanelle Osko, and Sydney Bent. Chanelle was the national champion in her division! Thank you so much to Debra McManus and Kris Thomson for a wonderful show season and for making all of us feel so welcome at PRHF!
