The land on which the Tomora Training Center in Greeley, Colorado, was built was purchased by the Roach family in 1969, and three generations later it is still in the family being run by the dynamic duo sister-pair of Natalie Ellis and Nicole Roach-Reinsvold.
Daina Kaugars and her fiancé, James Kersey, have embraced the challenges of what goes into running a USEA-recognized horse trial on their farm in Fort Collins, Colorado. “I’ve always wanted to do it; that’s why we bought the farm [in 2017],” Kaugars. “We found this property and said, ‘Well, this one has the terrain to do it.’ So, we basically purpose-bought it to run a horse trial. Then, the boarding facility was my way of making it work.”
