On behalf of MeHJA, we would like to extend our heartiest congratulations and wholehearted thank-you to all of our members, trainers, families, and friends for a fantastic Fall Finals yesterday! We appreciate each and every one of you who showed up and showed out, from our teeniest leadliners to our seasoned professionals and everyone in between.

Our Finals couldn't happen without you, our members, as well as all of the support from our wider community. From the countless number of hours from our volunteers, to the incredible donated prizes and generous sponsorships, we rely on our village to pull off every event. The hard work and dedication to our sport and to each other is inspiring and keeps MeHJA driven to put on a true celebration of those efforts, and we hope that you enjoyed your Finals experience, no matter where you landed in the ribbons.

A few special thank-yous go out to our amazing and gracious host, Life's A Ride Equestrian Center and their barn crew; our dedicated photog Hannah Marie Photography for capturing beautiful memories for us; Blue Seal Farm & Home - Windham, ME for their incredible donation of all of the yummy horse treats; and our fantastic judge, Skip Billingham. Also, we are grateful our sponsors, MIPR, Custom Equine Nutrition, Valley View Orchard Pies, R Fowler Equestrian, Brea McDonald Photography, Sea Glass Monk, and Triple Crown, as well as friends of Maine Hunter/Jumper, The Plaid Horse, Aroma Joe's, Tractor Supply, Poland Springs, Log Cabin Tack, and Dunkin Donuts.

Now, off to plan the banquet! 🎉

One more sleep, then it’s ✨Finals Day!✨

🕰️ As a reminder, warm-up starts at 7:45.
Please do not enter warm-up before then in order to give our set-up crew time for final touches!

🔢 Numbers must be worn in warm-up so make sure to check in at the secretary’s booth, which will open at 7:30.

⏱️ No more than 6 riders at a time, and please be efficient. Before you enter the ring, please do your flat warm-up in the indoor and come to the ring ready to jump!

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the jumps - grateful for a break in the rain while we set the course! 🌦️

We can’t wait to see you! 🎃🥇🐴🌻
