Stonegate Farm would like to welcome our newest member of our training program, Melinda Drury.
Here is a little bit about Melinda's riding career:
Melinda started riding
at the age of eight with Kristie when she was training in Alpharetta, GA. Melinda went on to win lots
of awards with the GHJA. After Kristie moved to Chicago in 1999 Melinda concentrated on the "A" circuit with her
new horse, Payton. Melinda had a strong junior career in the Large Junior, USEF Medal, ASPCA Maclay and the Junior/Amateur
Jumpers. Melinda qualified for the ASPCA Maclay's and went onto regionals.
In 2005, after graduating
from Northview High School, Melinda was recruited by University of Georgia's NCAA equestrian team on a full scholarship.
Melinda is finishing up her last year on the UGA equestrian team and graduating with a Bachelors degree in Spanish.
