Mary Babick will be the clinician for the complimentary USHJA Zone 4 Horsemanship Clinic.
The Atlanta Summer Classic is fast approaching and the Classic Company is proud to announce that the USHJA Zone 4 Committee is hosting a FREE CLINIC with Mary Babick on Monday, June 15, at the Georgia International Horse Park in Conyers, GA, home of the 1996 Olympic Games.
For more than three decades, Mary Babick of Freehold, NJ has trained students and horses out of her Knightsbridge Farm, earning numerous championships, victories and medals at such prestigious shows as Devon, the Pennsylvania National, the Washington International, the US Pony Finals and the North American Junior and Young Rider Championships.
Babick’s students, including Whitney Roper, Abby and Meg O’Mara, Tilden Brighton, and Maria Schaub, have earned countless state, zone and national championships over the years, from the small pony to the national equitation finals and the junior and amateur-owner jumper sections.
Babick’s clinic will focus on horsemanship and is limited to 30 riders and 100 auditors. “We create three or four groups from our list of participants,” commented Clinic Coordinator Janet McCarroll. “It’s is a great opportunity for the riders because the clinics are really tailored to the participants’ needs,” she continued. “Think of it as a customized clinic which really allows the riders to benefit from her expertise,” she added. Reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis. It is highly recommended to reserve your place early.
