Emma Baldwin has been riding with us about 5 years and has shown me her love and dedication for not only animals but also people. Emma leases one of our lesson horses and boards her mini here. Emma is also very involved in Bits-N-Pieces 4H, her school marching band and of course here on our farm. She is in our full-time lesson program and show team but now will get to spend time here outside of that. She will get to work alongside of me, my husband, and my daughter on how we work and train horses. Day to day care of horses, assisting younger riders and helping with events. Emma is already a responsible young lady, but this position is not held lightly. She will have and learn more responsibility, more work ethic, how to work with and for others....and last how to be a good horse woman. We are proud already of Emma and so excited to see her grow with us here!
Rylie Roeglin is a true asset to Toms Performance horses. She is not only passionate for the horses but for working with young children, helping her friends, and giving back to her community with volunteer work! We are blessed to have this beautiful young lady here. She has team work down with her riding buddies here and has step up as an Intern Teen leader and help with the little Buckaroos. She loves doing in hand work with our Shetland Cinnamon and absolutely loves riding our lesson horse Bailey. She has a background in the Hunter world but is getting western under her belt too! We love Rylie and can’t say enough about her to be honest.
Blakley Martin is such a hardworking young lady and we are super excited to have this young lady as a teen intern! Always asking what can she do next. She has dreams of vet school and we want to help her get in her way there! She is wonderful at our Buckaroo camps. I never have to worry about a childs safety with her and I also never have to worry about sunblock because this girl makes sure everyone has it on! We adore Blakely and hope to help make all her equine dreams come true!
