This Saturday, the Knollwood Knockouts are hosting an inaugural fundraising event.

At last Fall's Knollwood show, the Knockouts auctioned off the opportunity for a group of Knollwood Kids to give their fearless leader Scott a riding lesson.

Bidding was fast and furious, with friends from Scott's past and present customer base joining the fun. Heck, bids even came in from fellow professionals from many states!

The winning team consists of 1 former and 2 current show riders. The faculty includes:

Shelby

A graduate of our lesson program and an equitation star, Shelby is now a graduate of Lawrence University, and is in grad school at the Medical College of Wisconsin. In her rare spare time, Shelby helps out the Knockouts and helps with the Tuesday evening academy class.

Richie

Knollwood's favorite red-headed equitation rider, Richie needs little introduction. He started riding after his older sister caught the horse bug, and zoomed through our academy program to become a serious student of equitation. 

He's won national and world championships, rides every chance he can, and helps in whatever way he can, whether it's in the show barn or as a lesson barn helper.

He's ridden with both Scott and Carol for years, and will offer valuable insight to Scott's mind.

Brooklyn

She may be the youngest instructor on the team, but don't let that fool you. Brooklyn is an old soul, always listening and thinking about many things.

She also came up through the academy program, and even won a world championship her first year in the show horse world.

Her quiet fierceness will be a valuable asset with teaching a student who knows it all.

You can watch Scott's students try to teach him a thing or two this Saturday at 6:00 PM in the arena. Admission is a mere $5, with all donations going to the Knollwood Knockouts.

Please come and pay your entry fee before Friday so we're sure to have enough food for everyone. If you're coming from out of town, please call the school barn at 262-367-2391 to reserve your spot.

Scott is providing pizza and fixin's after the lesson.

You really won't want to miss this!
