Kids Corner..
Every month two of our youth members introduce themselves and share some
interesting information. This month, 14-year-old Melissa Wheeless got to
know 9-year old Madison Welch.
Melissa, or Lissa as she is fondly called, is in the
eighth grade and attends Etiwanda Intermediate School. Her favorite
subject in school is Science and she hopes to become a forensic
scientist. A few of her favorite things are Rocky Road ice cream,
Mexican Food and the color Green. She said the most exciting day she has
had was the day she got her new horse, Dennis. Lissa had dreams of
making it to the final round at Youth Nationals. Having already achieved
that, now she has set her sights to the roses. So you might say her
future goal is for her and Dennis to have a successful Youth Nationals
in 2008.
Madison, or Maddie as we like to call her, is in the
4th grade and attends Valencia Elementary School in Upland. Her favorite
subject in school is math. Maddie's favorite color is Orange. She also
likes Hannah Montana, Love Potion 31 ice cream, and hanging out with her
best friend, Sam. Maddie's future goal is to win a blue ribbon on her
horse, Platinum Monarch, or Hotrod as he's called in the barn. What is
Maddie's big wish? Well, it 's for her parents to buy Hotrod's only son
WW Rockstar. Good luck on that one Maddie!
Next month, one of our long time members, Krista
Williams will meet one of our newest members, Sarah Esqueda..
Sierra Empire's Horse Show is rapidly approaching, so
don't forget to come help out and have fun! The youth group will be
running their annual dollar drawing. We will also have an egg and spoon
race and a three-legged boot race too. The Make-A-Wish Foundation will
be selling necklaces and shirts to help raise money to grant a wish, so
let's help them out too!
