Betsy began riding when she was 8 years old and showing after her first year of lessons. She started at an English barn then Rode for a Saddleseat barn, Cleveland Park Stables in Greenville, SC, under renowned Saddlebred trainer Carroll Greenwell. Saddleseat quickly became her favorite type of riding.
She bought 4 yr old Saddlebred mare when she was 16, trained and showed very successfully in some local shows then sold her to a lesson program.
Betsy’s next acquisition was an 8 yr old 5 gaited Saddlebred gelding. She showed him in the Northeast in 5 gaited pleasure. He was chosen as the Saddlebred representative for The World Horse Expo in Baltimore 2 yrs in a row. He is now retired and will be used in the lesson program in the near future.
Betsy taught lessons to beginners through advanced for 2 years for Cleveland Park Stables as well as assisted in training. She introduced her riders to showing by entering them in academy classes.
Please contact Betsy at the number above, or at Grand View Lake Farm, to set up lessons.
