Yes, I am living proof of that, and I am one of the very few jrs. that
did stay in the sport for the long haul. I ditched a date, and dress for
the senior prom to go to an endurance ride. :)) I would still do
it.
Hopefully, Joni will make some of the same decisions about picking horses
over boys. :)))
That's
sure the truth. But let me say that while the jrs that ride today might
not be the specific adults who will ride tomorrow, the jr thing is sooo
important to these kids. For one thing, a study (but I don't know who or
where) once showed that girls into horses delayed the "onset" of
boy-it is by approx 2 yrs. And when jrs are busy riding, they can't be
busy getting into other trouble.
