Little Sibs Weekend
The Albion College Equestrian Club puts on demonstration

A picture from the Little Sibs event put on by the Albion College Equestrian Club

Little Sibs weekend is an annual tradition at Albion College.  But until 2007, there had never been an event at the Nancy G. Held Equestrian Center.

Equestrian Club members Katie Lindow (Canton / Canton), junior, Kayla Discher (Plano, TX / Plano West), first year, Kathryn Pflasterer (Ann Arbor / Community), sophomore, and Kate Van Ness (Spring Lake / Spring Lake), sophomore all helped to put on the event which ran from noon until 1 pm. 

Popular demonstrations from the club's previous Giddy Up! event were repeated.  Grooming and a feeding demonstration gave everyone the opportunity to get "up close and personal" with the horses.  For many of the little sibs, this was their first chance to be so close to horses.  Katie Lindow used her horse Kappy in both demonstrations while Kayla Discher and Kathryn Pflaster helped those in attendance groom two of the college's horses.

Kate Van Ness did a brief demonstration of how to handle horses.  Later, everyone had the opportunity to have their pictures taken with Kate's horse.  "I really hope that we can do another event for next year's Little Sib weekend, " said Van Ness, club vice president.
