Exhibitor Spotlight Hi! My name is Kali Wealch and I compete in the youth and amateur divisions! I ve ridden horses since I was born, after I outgrew my pony I rode my Grandpa s old Arabians until he bought me my first Morgan horse KFM Main Contender (Conner) and I ve shown him in Western equitation and pleasure as well as in 4H I competed in all seats including gaming! I outgrew Conner my junior and senior year of high school and I was fortunate enough to have been given an opportunity to ride a bigger Morgan, Snoopy. We competed in junior exhibitor hunt and western. I ve won many awards with both of my Morgans and I would never change it for the world! I love that I can do anything with this breed and they will perform! I will soon be graduating from Washtenaw Community College with a associates degree in Powertrain testing technician and I will be transferring to Ferris state online bachelors in automotive management degree. This fall I will also be working a internship at Walt Disney World! I can t wait to get back in the saddle this season with Never Ending Farm and the minute I return from Disney to find a Morgan to start showing again! And maybe this time in the reining division.
