We would like to thank everyone who helped and those who attended Change through Chance's
first major fundraiser, "An Afternoon with Ohio's Own Stacy Westfall" on Saturday, October 10, 2009 at Windy Knoll Farms.

Here are some photos from the event:

At the event Stacy Westfall gave two one-hour-long presentations centered on the themes of emotional control of your horse, learning to read your horse’s body language and bridleless riding. Stacy is famous for her bridleless, bareback freestyle reining performances on Roxy, a black Quarter Horse mare. Together they won the 2006 All American Quarter Horse Congress Freestyle Reining Championship. Their amazing performance, captured on video, has been watched by over a million viewers online.

Stacy was a featured guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in March 2008, as a result of Ellen seeing the Bareback Bridleless video clip.

Stacy has also won the prestigious “Road to the Horse” (she was the first women invited to compete) and numerous other championships. She is a featured speaker at horse expos around the country and an expert contributor to horse publications. Her “Westfall Horsemanship” training series, which is available on DVD, gives instructions for basic groundwork, starting a young horse, becoming a better rider, and more. Visit Stacy’s website: Westfall Horsemanship.

Along with Stacy Westfall, the afternoon featured the nationally ranked16-Girl Cowgirl Express Drill Team. Change through Chance’s therapeutic riding students gave a riding demonstration. The day included a Saddle Raffle and both Live and Silent auctions with many donated items up for bid.

Between sessions, Stacy talked personally with fans and autographed the special, limited edition poster featuring photographs of Stacy, Roxy and Change through Chance students.

Following the event, Sponsors and VIP ticket holders attended an exclusive Chuckwagon Barbeque with Stacy Westfall.
