Once again, Gunnar has a busy clinic schedule throughout the summer! Please check Show and Clinic Schedule to see his updated schedule.
On June 5th the Central Florida Dressage Club hosted a new clinic with Gunnar. The clinic was held at a beautiful facilty, Wind Song Farm in Apopka, FL. The clinic was a huge success, and the CFD had never before held a clinic with more auditors in attendence!
On his most recent trip to Europe, Gunnar purchased a promising young prospect. Sans Souci's "Samson" is a 5 year old golden bay gelding. His is 16.1h and should mature to 16.2h or more. He has been settling in and adjusting to the Florida Climate. Samson has started back into light work and is doing well. Gunnar and Birgit have high hopes for this young horse, whose sire is the Dutch Stallion Sam-Sam. His dam is by Robin (Rambo). Pictures coming soon!

Well, lots of news this month!
Gunnar has a busy clinic schedule this spring. In addition to his regular visits to Atlanta, Goshen, NY and East Greenwich, RI, he has two new clinics scheduled for Riverhead Long Island, and Alabama. Please check Show and Clinic Schedule for more information. Note that this is important as the contact info for some of his regular visits has changed!
He will travel to Europe on April 6 and will return on April 17, where he is horse shopping. If you are interested in having him help you with your horse search, please contact him directly.
On that note, Gunnar has a new phone number: 352-875-1551. He suggests though that he does still prefer email (gunnaros@aol.com) unless it is an emergency or something very important!
Gunnar and Birgit will spend some time in Vermont at their old Deerwood Farm in May. They look forward to spring in New England!
Congratulations to two of his students:
To Sharon Jerdeman, who just earned her USDF Gold Medal! Sharon had never done Grand Prix before, and neither had her horse Chinook, but they achieved their scores after just two Grand Prix rides! Very impressive!
To Pamela Cheeseman of Maine, who has just purchased "DJ"! DJ is the second horse that Pamela has bought from Gunnar and Birgit. She and her first horse, Sumner Solstice, in fact, have just earned their USDF Silver Medal! They achieved their qualifying fourth level score also on their very first fourth level test.

Once again Deerwood South is full
for the winter! Gunnar travelled to New England for two clinics
this month. In fact one was during one of the coldest weekends
this season! What a trooper Gunnar was, teaching in 20 degree
temperatures! He is now ready to settle down in the warmth of
Florida and focus on the busy winter
season!
The two young horses, Igeno and DJ are still improving and should be ready for third or fourth level by spring! Please see Horses for Sale for more information!
Or, better yet, check out Gunnar's You Tube "channel" for videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/GunnarOstergaard
Gunnar and Birgit have taken their beutiful Vermont home off the market for now. However, it IS still for sale by Gunnar and Birgit themselves. They welcome serious inquiries and are even willing to offer a commission where appropriate.
