Background Information
Catherine Eberly, Class of 2026
At age five, I attended my first ever horse camp. It was with my trainers that I still ride with to this day. I immediately fell in love with riding and knew it was something I wanted to pursue. When I turned 10, I began taking weekly lessons and my passion for riding grew. I loved learning from the lesson horses and each challenge they each presented me. From walk/trot to cantering jumps, I quickly knew that I wanted to start my show career. Over the years, I have developed two of my own young horses and have been taught by many experienced horses. Every ride has taught me about myself and the connection I make with the horse. Now as I high school junior, I want to continue to challenge myself to grow as an equestrian and be part of a Division 1 equestrian team.
