Apprenticeship Program Scholarship

To apply for this scholarship program a student must be between 14 and 17 years of age. Students wishing to apply for this scholarship will need to submit a 250 word essay on why they would be a good candidate for the scholarship. The essay should include any previous horse experience, areas of interest in the horse industry and anything the applicant might view as relevant to the candidacy. No prior horse experience is necessary for you to be selected. Following the essay there will be an onsite interview and we will select the students who appear to be most suitable for the program. As space is limited we have a waiting list available and candidates need not submit a new application once on the waiting list. The intention of the scholarship is to assist teens who are not in an economic position to be able to receive the education otherwise and financial need will have an effect on admittance.

Miss Morganna Jones Scholarship

This scholarship is in celebration to the memory of Ferronato's first horse: a rescue Thoroughbred whose registered name was Miss Morganna Jones, her stable name Tahoe. Ferronato's passion for Thoroughbreds began in childhood; her young rider career was during a time when both the Dressage and Hunter/Jumper world was dominated by them, not to mention having a birthday that frequently falls on the Kentucky Derby.

Over the years the rise in popularity of the European Warmblood has served to replace the American Thoroughbred in many areas of competition. Even though Thoroughbred racing is the second largest grossing sport, its athletes do not live in mansions and all too often are forgotten when they stop being top income producers. 1986 Kentucky Derby winner, Ferdinand, and Hall of Famer Exceller both ended their lives on slaughterhouse floors.

This scholarship was created to give one thoroughbred at a time the opportunity to be rescued, rehabilitated, trained, and then integrated into our Academy program. We hope to increase funding for this scholarship in the coming years so that we are able to assist more than one Thoroughbred at a time given the high number of rescue Thoroughbreds searching for a second chance.
