Beanie Cone, of Hunter’s Edge Stables, took several of his students and horses to the Charleston Summer Classic horse shows at St. John’s Island, SC, July 11-15 and July 18-22. In the few days between shows, what better thing to do than take your horses to the beach? The beach was only six miles from the show grounds, so it was a perfect opportunity to do some horse surfing.
The last week of the Charleston Classic closed out Sunday July 22 and awarded the coveted Supreme Kahuna Pony Classic Championship to the top ponies in the Small, Medium and Large Divisions, as well as the Small, Medium and Large Green Ponies. Champions were earned by competitors accumulating points in the Pony Model classes, Pony under Saddle, and the two Classics. Each Champion received an Essex Classic shirt. The Most Supreme Grand Kahuna Pony Rider Champion was awarded to Eyes Up, ridden by Sarah Hanks, who received a special cooler and a congratulatory advertisement in the Chronicle of the Horse.

Medium Pony Grand Kahuna - Falling Moon Celebration, ridden by Samantha Posey
Large Pony Grand Kahuna - Eyes Up, ridden by Sarah Hanks
