Show Jumping Hall of Fame inductee and international show jumper, Susie Hutchison, held a clinic for 20 participants at Bridle Trails State Park on August 4th and 5th. This was the only clinic held by Ms. Hutchison in Washington State in 2018.

Riders in the clinic were thrilled to be receive coaching from such an accomplished equestrian. From beginner to seasoned riders and horses, Ms. Hutchison's thoughtful and straight forward feedback helped each horse and rider improve their skills. Other equestrians, not participating in the clinic, also filled the stands to watch and witness the "best of the best". With over 80 Grand Prix wins, it was an honor and a privilege to be the host of this clinic at Bridle Trails State Park for the first time.
