We love our horses and they all have a special place in our barn and our hearts. Unfortunately, for some of them, there comes a time when they no longer fit the needs of our program....

Like every semester, each student enrolled in a riding class has to perform a mounted routine in costume that corresponds to a song that they have choreographed the routine to. I always find this one of the best parts of the semester....

Sorry.*****   Thursday was our last day in the city and St. Patricks Day. This was my favorite day because of my deep love for green. I, for one, went all out in my celebration of the amazingly colored holiday and dressed in green, painted my nails green, and even dyed a portion of my hair green.... Mon, 11 Apr 2011 00:00:00 EST 1220 http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1215 Wednesday we started at the Field Museum of Natural History and I just LOVE that type of museum! There is just so much to learn and it seems like never enough time to learn it, especially for us that morning. We only had two and a half hours at the museum and the recommended time is a whole day, so to say the least, we did some speed-learning.... Mon, 28 Mar 2011 00:00:00 EST 1215 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1204 I have always loved big cities, the feeling of becoming invisible in the crowd, following the flow of people. I don't think I would ever like to live in a big city, at least not for any great length of time, but I do enjoy visiting. It had been awhile since I got my last “big city” fix but that was taken care of last week....

After a good season of hard work it is time for a break, but not quite. We had one of our riders qualify and place in the Regional show which means she will get to move on toSemis. So the work isn't over yet, because we have to get her ready to win....

The horses all did great and I think the riders had a good time. For the Judson Team, it was nice to have a show at home where we knew the horses and didn't have to travel. I must also add how nice it was to have our new barn located right beside our arena.... Thu, 24 Feb 2011 00:00:00 EST 1185 Life On The Team http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1175 So, I mentioned a couple of blogs ago that Judson College's Western Equestrian Team was going to get to go to Auburn to train with Auburn University's Equestrian Team and coaches... We FINALLY got to go. Alright, so the trip was only delayed one week.  We were supposed to go last Tuesday, February 1st, but due to frigid temperatures and torrential down pours we came to the conclusion that it would be best to postpone until the weather decided to be on our side....

This is my second year as an Art Club member and I was actually elected to serve as the treasurer for this year. I have always had a love for art, or I guess more accurately, being creative, so I was really excited when theArt Club became more active on campus last year....

The facility includes a 30- stall barn complete with 2 tack rooms, an office, a restroom and laundry facility, feedroom and wash rack.The barn is conveniently attached to our covered arena and there is an outdoor dressage ring and round pen also on site....

Classes began at the end of last week so everyone is ready to get into the routine of everything this week or, we were... The weather had other plans though and because of possible snow and the likelyhood of ice, classes were canceled for today, so we got an extra day to make sure we were really read for the semester and to catch up with friends before everyone got extra busy with schoolwork.... Mon, 10 Jan 2011 00:00:00 EST 1135 Academics http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1117 I cannot believe that this  semester is already over! I only have two more days of classes before exams.  I think that this has been my busiest semester yet, and although I feel like it has been forever since the beginning of the semester, it does not feel like it is time for the semester to end....

It seems like just last month I started my third year at Judson and now I am finishing up this semester's projects and beginning to get ready for finals.  Some of my classes are ahead of others, like my riding class for example.... Thu, 18 Nov 2010 00:00:00 EST 1103 Academics http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1102 I think this has been the most interesting weekend of the year!  It started off on Friday when I got to meet some really awesome Judson prospective students. Three girls that are looking at coming to Judson next year came to campus for scholarship day, and because of how far away they lived, they came up Friday afternoon.... Mon, 15 Nov 2010 00:00:00 EST 1102 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1088 I have noticed throughout my life that things that are not at all related seem to go well together or, if nothing else, are good for each other.  The activities of my life seem to be no different. I am kind of a random person. I like and enjoy lots of different things. My academic career illustrates this to a degree, I mean I am majoring in business but have a minor in equine science and web design.... Fri, 5 Nov 2010 00:00:00 EST 1088 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=1082   Well, another show weekend down. This weekend, we were showing at Berry College in Rome, Ga. and it was the last show weekend of this semester at least for the Western Team. I can't believe how fast time goes by. The Huntseat Team still has shows next weekend - they will be at Lander University in South Carolina....

I think they were a little nervous, but they cowgirled up and overcame it. If I remember correctly almost everyone placed in at least one of the shows....

I am leaving in just a couple of minutes with the Judson College Western Equestrian Team for our first show of the season, hosted by North Georgia College and State University in Dahlonega, Ga. The show is actually tomorrow, but since it is a six or so hour drive from Judson we are leaving this morning so that we can take our time driving and stop along the way to eat....

I was really excited to get to meet some girls who were interested in Judson's Equine program and to get to share with them what our program is all about. Last Saturday (September 25, 2010) was Judson's first ever Equine Preview Day.  It was a day designed to provide a more in-depth look at the equine program then Judson's regular preview days because it was meant specifically for prospective students interested in the equine program at Judson.... Fri, 1 Oct 2010 00:00:00 EST 1020 Life At The Barn http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=975 I am absolutely exhausted.  It has been the busiest week I can remember in a long time.  On top of the regular school stuff, the Judson College Equestrian Team is off getting ready for what seems like too many things at once. I guess it is really only two “things” but the preparation for one is more then enough to go around at a time....

Instead, I think we did more. Why is that, you ask? Well, I will tell you...  It is because it is that time of year that professors have been eagerly awaiting and students have been fearfully dreading. It is time for ……....

Judson currently offers a minor in equine science and interdisciplinary majors in Equine and Business and Equine and Psychology ( equine-facilitated mental health). This new degree, though, will allow students a more in-depth education to prepare them for the equine industry....

Thinking back it feels like just the other day I was arriving at school to begin my second year as a Judson Girl. But next week begins finals week and then I will be gone for the summer. It is amazing how time flies as you get older, and funny how that is when you wish it would pass slower.... Fri, 23 Apr 2010 00:00:00 EST 608 http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=609 Opps, I forgot to let you know, when I was telling you about our new barn, that with our new facility students will be able to bring thier own horse(s) and board them on campus.

The construction teams came in at the beginning of last week. The new barn will be located next to the riding arena. The roof structure for the new barn is what used to be the old riding arena. When the new arena was built a few years ago, the old arena was disassembled, moved, and attached to the arena to serve as the basic frame work for the new barn....

His name is Trademark and he is a fifteen or sixteen year old Thoroughbred. Trademark is a vey sweet, loving horse. He has a very glam personality and already seems to be fitting in with our program and other horses well. Trademark is very nice to ride....

It was one of those days where the sun is out and you just know that spring is finally here. YAY!  It is also that time of year when everyone is getting ready for finals (BOO) and that is no different in the Equine program.  The finals for the riding classes consist of each student choreographing a riding routine....

It is really neat too, because so often the people that we stay with are just so happy to have us stay with them. They treat you like royalty, preparing food and doing everything they can to make your stay more comfortable and they do it simply because they are THAT glad that we are staying with them.... Tue, 30 Mar 2010 00:00:00 EST 538 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=539          Friday, was probably one of the most rememberable days. We sang at Hammond High School. We spent the morning performing for their choir classes and hearing them perform for us. Then during lunch there was a session where students who were interested in learning more about Judson could come meet with some of the choir members and talk to a Judson Recruiter....

Thu, 25 Feb 2010 00:00:00 EST 461 Life On The Team http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=452 I thought it would be fun to share with you some of the things that are involved with participating in horse shows. Some of these may pertain to one type of showing or another, but they are all things that members of the Judson College Equestrian Team have experienced. For those of you who have shown before you will probably be able to relate to some of these and laugh at us for others....

Tue, 23 Feb 2010 00:00:00 EST 449 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=433 Last week was crazy. As Judson is quickly approaching midterm, classes have not even considered slowing down. If anything life has gotten more busy and more hectic. On top of  normal school stuff - class, homework, and the likes, some of us had to get ready for a horse show. At least I started the week thinking I was going to have to get ready for a show, than I got sick.... Mon, 15 Feb 2010 00:00:00 EST 433 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=428 This weekend was our first and second show of the semester.  We had 2 western shows in one day. The shows were hosted by Georgia Tech and took place at Linda's Riding School in Conyers, Ga. I think we all had a pretty good time. It could have been a little more enjoyable though if the weather had been nicer....

Today, for my Huntseat team class, we went to Blackjack Farms in Birmingham to watch Meredith Bell, one of our team members have a lesson.

It was a bit of a slow start; first we had to go over the paper work for the classes and then wait for some ridiculously cold weather to pass. Though many of us would have liked to just get on a horse, it gave us a chance to review and get back in the mindset of riding  after a month and a half of non-poniness (yes, I did just make a word, but I could not come up with one already in existence that I liked!)....

So, I guess I lost track of time, because it has been awhile since I have written. I apologize. So, school has started and everything is beginning to fall into a schedule. I was hoping that things would be relaxed and calm for a few weeks since it is the beginning of the semester. I mean, it is the end of the semester that is supposed to be busy, right? I guess not, because I must say that this seems to be the busiest I have ever been! I don't know if it is because we are still playing catch up from having two days off of school for bad weather, or if I am just THAT busy....

The first few days were nothing special: Packing and getting ready to head back to Judson, as well as, a few last visits with friends back home before we all head our separate ways. It was the normal end of the holidays stuff.... Fri, 8 Jan 2010 00:00:00 EST 359 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=327 During the first week of Christmas, I stayed at school with around 20 or 25 other Judson girls for Restoration, a local missions project. The project came to be because of a Judson student. Over the summer she was inspired to do work to help our community. After much thought and prayer, she started looking in to putting the idea into action....

It was a small space - we had to lay flat on our backs in order to fit - dark, wet, and muddy.  Our job was to nail in cross supports.  It didn't take long to realize that nailing over our heads was not going to last long....

What we did wasn't just about building a house for a family that didn't have one or about reading to kids who couldn't read yet. It was about showing Gods love to our community and by doing that, we saw Gods love ourselves....

Ok, I didn't really do THAT much caroling that I can really say that it made up for 19 years of NEVER caroling, but I did go twice. Both times were very interesting and very different experiences....

Friday night, we had a "snow party." There was a good chance of snow predicted for that night so a couple of my friends decided that we would stay up and wait for it. We gathered in the lobby of our dorm to watch movies and make one another and our friends Christmas signs....

Regardless of the fact that finals are next week and I still have other assignments to finish, my mood is festive not stressed. Just like I like to have Christmas with my friends and family at home, I want to be able to share the joys of Christmas with my friends and "family" at Judson.... Mon, 30 Nov 2009 00:00:00 EST 280 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=276 It feels so good to be back at school. I am rather surprised to hear myself say that, or is it see myself type those words. After time at home I generally find myself agonizing over the fact that I have to go back to school. Back to classes, homework, studying, and papers. It is just something I don't want to do and I find myself wishing that I had another day at home to relax, hang out, and mostly just not worry about all of the stuff I have do in the following weeks....

Not that it wasn't enjoyable, I am just glad that that little bit of stress is gone.  We did well in the show, I placed third and sixth. All of my worries were needless, because everything went well and all the horses did well. My mom and brother got to come watch the show and though my brother claims to have been bored to death the whole time, I think he was trying to make me feel guilty because mom made him come....

The air is cool and crisp and when you walk out of your dorm in the morning to go to class, there is that refreshing campfire smell from the smoke of wood stoves. The leaves have changed colors and it looks as though the trees caught on fire overnight. I can't tell you which of these things it is that makes me have such strong feelings for this season....

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST 219 http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=189 The show this weekend at Berry College went very well. The weather was a little bit colder than any of us were expecting,so we were a little unprepared for that. Fortunately everyone had brought their team jackets, which are really nice winter jackets, so we were able to stay somewhat warm.... Mon, 26 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST 189 Life On The Team http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=185  We have arrived at our hotel in Rome, Georgia for the IHSA horse show tomorrow. This weekend's show is hosted by Berry College and will take place on Berry's campus at their equestrian facilities. We left Judson at 10 this morning, but took a leisurely, fun trip here. We stopped in Birmingham at the Galleria for lunch and our shopping fix for the trip.... Fri, 23 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST 185 Life On The Team http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=180 I am still trying to catch up with everything that has gone on around here in the last week. I guess I need to find more time to write so I don’t have to catch up! A big event for the equestrian program here at Judson in the fall is the Equestrian Demonstration Day. This is an event that is sponsored by the admissions department.... Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST 180 Life At The Barn http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=178 I am a little behind, but late is better then never. Right? We, that is the Judson College Equestrian Team, traveled to Dahlonega Georgia for our first Western IHSA show of the year. The show was hosted by North Georgia’s Equestrian team and was held at EpiphanyFarm. We had a great weekend.... Thu, 15 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST 178 Life On The Team http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=157 - Once upon a time, there lived a college student, her roommate and a number of other young women. The girl was beginning to feel slightly sleep deprived from the everyday college life, extra curricular activities, and last, but not least, the group was trying to put on a play. It would be a magnificent play, the finest in the land, but the journey was long with many hills and bumps.... Fri, 25 Sep 2009 00:00:00 EST 157 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=144 Now, you have heard about what we have done or are doing as an equestrian program here at Judson, but not much on whom we are.  Today I would like to fix that and introduce you to the Judson College Equestrian Program. The Equestrian Program at Judson is not large, but then what about Judson is? However, its small size is an advantage; it allows us to have a large range of opportunities that may not be available to larger programs.... Wed, 23 Sep 2009 00:00:00 EST 144 Life At The Barn http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=137 Here at Judson we love our horses. God has blessed us by giving us beautiful horses to ride while we are here at Judson. Part of the responsibility of having these horses is taking care of them and making sure they are healthy. Aside from regular care, good grooming, and proper handling, there are things that have to be done every once in a while to assure that our horses remain healthy....

Dr. Pugh is an equine vet who formally taught at Auburn University and currently works for Fort Dodge, a leading producer in Equine Vaccinations....

We are right around one month until our first IHSA show for the season and I must say I am both excited and scared. This is my first year riding on Judson's Equestrian Team. I was part of the Equestrian program last year and took some riding classes.... Thu, 10 Sep 2009 00:00:00 EST 129 Life On The Team http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=93             I must admit that I was not looking forward to classes starting. The idea of sitting in a classroom listening to a professor lecture for at least an hour, two or three times a day, just was not something I was excited about. I was however, anxiously waiting for pony classes to start.... Sun, 30 Aug 2009 00:00:00 EST 93 Life At The Barn http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=94    In this blog I am going to try to answer one of the questions that I am most frequently asked concerning Life as a Judson Girl. The question is "what do Judson students do for fun on weekends and in their spare time?" This question is so popular because as I am sure many of you have noticed, either from reading about Judson, visiting Judson, or attending Judson, that it is located in what most people consider a very small town in the middle of no-where.... Sun, 30 Aug 2009 00:00:00 EST 94 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=86    So with Welcome Week being over many of you may be wondering what is welcome week at Judson?     Well Welcome Week at Judson is the first week that freshmen and transfer students are living on campus. This year the week was kicked off by first time Judson students moving in on the afternoon of Sunday August 16th.... Fri, 28 Aug 2009 00:00:00 EST 86 Judson Life http://judson.edu/blogs/corey/index.asp?action=ind&pub_id=88    The first full week of classes is done and I don't know of anyone on campus who isn't glad it is the weekend. The first few weeks of school always seem to be the hardest. I guess  it is since everyone is still wishing they had just a little bit left of summer, or that they could be back at school just for the social part of college and skip the whole academic part....
