On a positive note I thought it might be nice to start a thread to share experiences you witnessed at an event, schooling or clinic when a random eventer that you really didn’t know did something particularly kind for someone.
A couple weeks ago, my adult daughter who has just begun to event was in the XC warmup at a BN schooling show when she realized her bell boots with the double velcro weren’t fastened correctly. She was on a new horse and had never used them before, and I hadn’t thought to check them before she left the barns. She rode over to a stranger who was standing with a group she likely trained and asked if she would help her get them on correctly. Not only did the woman happily help, she pulled them off and showed my daughter how the velcro should done up and where the two sides should meet to get the proper fit before putting them back on the horse.
