Sweet Memories Stables
“Where Memories Begin”

A LITTLE HISTORY:
Alise and Dacia have both been riding POAs for 7 years. Over that
time ponies have come and gone, pickup and trailers have changed, and our facilities
have grown and expanded until last year when we formalized our stable’s
name. Thus Sweet Memories Stables was created. The name is in memory of Silvia,
Silver Sweet. After Silvia’s extremely successful show career in 2004,
she suddenly passed away. We actually thank Christine McCann who came up with
the name during a church sermon (given by our pastor, her husband.)
OUR MISSION:
We want to facilitate opportunities for both youth
and adults to create memories through pony or horse experiences. This may be
through the sale of a pony, riding lessons or the financing of YOUR project.
Sweet
Memories will be standing RY Major Equity. Watch Major
and Alise this year and imagine his unbelievable great
disposition in your ponies. He presents a great opportunity
to out cross with all of your mares from other performance
bloodlines. Major is out of Invested Equity, a son of The Investor.
Our goal is to increase the odds of raising champions
by breeding mares who can have successful show careers.
Alise’s Final Year Goal:
To have
the most FUN that any girl and her “stud” can
have!! After the past highs, National high point Junior Pony, Reserve Champion
McClaren and 3/4 year old Futurity and the lows, the death of Silvia and leaving
the International show ring in an ambulance, we pray that you indeed are able
to accomplish your goal this year.
Love, Dad and Mom
On the Cover: Alise Dykstra and the new

on the Kansas State Equestrian Team for 2006-2007. |
