The CPHA Foundation held their Championships on July 19-21 at Blenheim in San Juan Capistrano, It was a very strong turnout (almost 100) with good competition. The courses were challenging but fun for all and everyone did a great job. Thank you to all of the riders, Blenheim and our sponsors for such great support. The staff at Blenheim were there to help us all along.

In Memory of a Great Horsewoman!!
The CPHA Foundation extends sincere thanks to a generous donation to Equestrian Professionals in need, received in honor of the late Gretchen Tank.
Gretchen was a fixture on the Hunter/Jumper circuit in Southern California. She owned Grand Prix horses and top hunters and also coached some of the best riders California has to offer. Gretchen's passion for horses and especially the details that make them special, was a gift she generously passed on to all people she taught .
Gretchen received money from the CPHA Foundation after sustaining an injury and she always appreciated the help she received, wanting to in turn help other professionals. The CPHA Foundation is grateful for Gretchen's lifetime involvement and the generosity of the anonymous donor whose funds will go on to help other Equestrian Professionals.
"Gretchen Tank taught me more about horses than anyone I had ever met. I not only learned to ride a difficult horse but I learned about horses inside and out. She loved the horses as much as I did and she didn’t care how much they cost or if they were not all winners. She understood them, their problems as well as their strengths. She was never mean or cruel to a horse in all the years I knew her. She will be remembered with admiration, love and a great deal of gratitude for all she did!"
"With the passing of Gretchen Tank, the horse community has lost a master. She was a truly magnificent horsewoman. She could bring out the best in any horse. Fancy or not, she believed in every horse. If they weren’t winners yet, she could mold them into one. The things she could bring out in a horse were magical. She lived and breathed the horses. She could have taught a thousand people a day for a century and we still wouldn’t know everything she knew."
Neil Gray, DVM is one of our professional members working on the Equitarian Initiative, a charity organization that provides veterinary care to working equids (horses, mules and donkeys)in underserved communities in developing countries. These horses need yor help so please read about the worthwhile project and help these wonderful horses who are so deserving and get so little help.
See attached letter
Make sure your trainer is a current CPHA Member prior to your participation in a CPHA class.
