See what some of our former students are doing!
We love hearing from our former students and hearing how their
involvement with Starlight affected their lives.

To Terry Bowman...
the one who started it all.
Hello....
This is Erin, that little girl who crawled
on top of Sham and they went so fast .
Do you also remember when I told you
that I was going to be Sham's personal Veterinarian?
In eleven days it will be one step closer to happening.
Terry, I have an interview to Veterinary school
and I am so excited about it! I wanted to give
myself the opportunity to revisit the real reason
why I want to be a doctor and prepare for my
interview, and revisit the place where this life
long dream started. You have been such and
inspiration to me and I have never forgotten
my time with you and your horses.
Every time I think of being or becoming a vet,
those are the times that pop in to my mind and
kept my mind focused. To be honest lots of these
times are on my applications and in my
admission essays.
I wanted to share everything with you...
Erin

Hello Terry!
I took my first riding lessons at Starlight Stables in 1992 and 1993. I was an exchange student from Germany at UMKC and I had a great time riding Gita. Recently, after almost 14 years, the horse virus broke through, I picked up riding again and two months later, I bought my first horse.
The style has changed, from Western to an Icelandic horse, but I'd like to thank you for teaching me both the beginnings of riding and the gentle and respectful way to work with horses. There are things you never forget.
When I found your previous website, it brought back many old memories. I am happy that your new site gives an email so I can express my thanks. You say "Show me a person's horse & I'll tell you about the person". Well, here's Blakkur: small, smart, tireless and absolutely dauntless.
Best Wishes From Overseas,
Klaus

 Love your website! I took riding lessons from you as a child,(20 yrs ago) when Sham was around. All of the great pictures you have posted brought back so many fond memories for me. I live in Southwest Missouri now, but hope to visit the area some time with my husband and daughters. I would love to sign my girls up for a lesson next summer. It's been fun showing my family where I used to ride! Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your website. -Lori

Hi Terry, I have been looking at your website for some time and it sure
does bring back a lot of memories of being out there and how
much that was the best time of my life. :-) I will never forget
my time I had spent at the barn and with Gita they were good
times for me. A part of my childhood that I will never forget
about and I hope my daughter will someday have
memories like that :-)
Take Care,
Michele Billings
