LEADMARE is the founder, publisher, and behind-the-scenes girl at Girls Horse Club. She has a long history developing fun, meaningful products and content for youth, women and families. LeadMare lives in the USA with her human and animal family that includes BOO and Hooteeny. She doesn’t have a horse of her own (yet), but spends as much time as possible around horses by taking  lessons, volunteering, and going on trail rides.

JULIA, age 15, was the first ever Junior Blogger back in May 2007. After retiring from the roster in 2008 to focus on school, she continued to contribute as a reader and guest blogger. In addition to writing, she also enjoys creating digital art and photography for our gallery. Julia lives in the U.S., where she takes riding lessons and does volunteer work with horses. She has been a Junior Editor since September 2009.

MADELAINA, age 14, became a Junior Editor in September 2009, in addition to being the Junior Blogger with the most seniority (April 2007 – January 2010). She has shared many inspiring blogs, poetry and stories with GHC readers, and is unwavering in her support for everyone. She also played an important role in our 2009 Fiction Competition by assisting the judges as a pre-reader. When she’s not reading or writing about horses, Madelaina takes riding lessons near her home in Australia.

From May 2007 through January 2010, Girls Horse Club offered a Junior Blogger (JB) program that challenged young writers to do their best and rewarded them by providing professional editing, illustration and formatting of their work, and showcasing them as featured bloggers. The program was discontinued in 2010, but we owe a HUGE  thank you to the Junior Bloggers who  contributed many great blogs for our readers to enjoy. JBs will always be an important part of the herd at Girls Horse Club!
