Horse riding expertise is part of Courtney Woodard’s DNA, literally. The 16-year-old 4-H club member followed her mother’s footsteps into the arena of horse show competitions, and she’s making quite a name for herself in it. Woodard recently won not only the championship ribbon and medallion at the Dixie Nationals in Jackson, Miss., in the Novice Youth Horsemanship class, but the embroidered Dixie National jacket, too.
