CCHS Sophomore wins an American Quarter Horse!

Back in August, CCHS sophomore Eden Kopac, wrote a 500 word essay on why she would like to own an American Quarter Horse Wheeling. This essay was put into a contest along with 25 other kids from across the country, and the winner receives a horse! Eden was the only Wisconsin contestant, and she was chosen by the American Quarter Horse Foundation as the winner! Along with her essay, she filled out paperwork regarding what she would feed the horse, where she would board him, and most importantly, what her training philosophy would be. As the winner, she will be attending a seminar to present to a group of people, and writing a two page paper each month about her progress on training her horse. She received the exciting news last week, and is hoping that her and her parents can drive down to Lazy-U Ranch in Hershey, Nebraska to pick up her horse next week. She does not know which one will be hers yet, and she is still deciding on what to name him. She has promised to send pictures once she finds out! This is Eden's first horse that she personally owns, and we could not be more proud of her for winning. Congratulations Eden!
