This week's Practical Horseman Podcast, sponsored by Cosequin®, is with the Practical Horseman 2024 Trainer of the Year Leigh Berman, owner and head trainer of Two Bit Farm in Boyertown, Pennsylvania.The Practical Horseman Trainer of the Year Program is designed to honor the unsung heroes of our sport—trainers who work tirelessly to improve the education of both their riders and horses. Entrants were nominated for the contest by individuals in the horse community. Out of all the trainers nominated, 10 finalists were selected, with one earning the title of Trainer of the Year.About Leigh BermanLeigh started her career as an Amateur, winning many awards aboard her off-the-track-Thoroughbred Catch 22. As a professional, she spent years showing and training at top-ranked horse shows in both hunters and jumpers. She even ended up on the cover of Practical Horseman magazine in 1995 and was featured in an article about her and Catch22 who should found at the New Holland Horse Auction.As head trainer of Two Bit Farm, Leigh focuses on helping riders of all ages and skill levels develop genuine partnerships with their horses. She's helped her students achieve success in the Junior Hunters and the Amateur Owner divisions—but more importantly she strives to instill confidence in her riders and encourages them to be their best selves in order to communicate with their equine partners.Leigh's talent is also apparent when she's working with young horses or those with training challenges. She often imports unbroken horses from overseas to develop them into well-rounded show horses.In her submission for the Practical Horseman Trainer of the Year, Leigh's students noted her unbridled passion for helping them achieve their riding goals and enhancing the relationships they share with their horses—all while having a blast along the way.Leigh also recognizes how much horses have to offer and pays that forward by supporting her local riding community and the Boyertown community in general. She hosts biannual derbies to provide high-level competition experiences for riders who might not be able to afford rated shows or have the time to travel to them. And she partnered with a local gym to introduce middle-school students to two of her horses to teach them about physical wellness and the beautiful partnerships we can share with these amazing animals.In today's podcast, we talked to Leigh about receiving the 2024 Practical Horseman Trainer of the Year title, how she sets up her students and horses for success and happiness in the saddle and why she feels it's important to share horses with her local community.About This Week's Sponsor, CosequinCOSEQUIN®, the #1 veterinarian-recommended joint health supplement brand, is excited to bring you, COSEQUIN® ASU Balance.

Voters in Boyertown school district's Region #1 have two, new faces running in the upcoming primary on May 16. Michelle Sweisfort is running for the open 2-year seat; Krista Arndt hopes to secure the 4-year seat. What both Michelle and Krista bring is valuable and unique to the Boyertown School Board. Krista's experience and network of professionals who provide security in technology and in interpreting the complex language of regulations are areas of concern for today's schools and ones the current Board has not researched or even considered. Michelle's work in the insurance arena with budgets and finance in managing risk provide professional abilities in the strategic management of the district's $139 million budget. Krista and her family follow auto racing; Michelle rescues stray cats. They just met but have become fast friends and pledge to bring strong leadership skills and a dedication to solving problems as positive role models and team players.

Since her retirement, she has continued her involvement by attending school board meetings, voicing her concerns, and offering information with others.In the episode, she recalls the recent development of “Boyertown Forward”—the political action committee formed to support the current pro-public school candidates—some details about each of the pro-public education candidates as well as issues presented by their opponents and the groups that support them.  She urges listeners to become involved, to learn about the unique qualifications of the candidates that Boyertown Forward supports as well as what differentiates them from their opponents. She encourages attendance at the Candidate Forum on May 10, 2023, in the Fellowship room of St. John's Lutheran Church, 45 N Reading Ave, Boyertown, 7-9 p.m. And, most important of all, she hopes that voters turn out on the primary election day: May 16. Additional details from the "B Inspired" episode can be found in an upcoming article in  The Boyertown Area Expression (boyertownareaexpression.town.news).
