For months, Haley Duncan has been saving up to ride with her pony Wings in a clinic with a world-famous event rider. On top of that, she wants to make sure Wings is as fit and ready as he can be, which means extra trot sets before school and training and cleaning tack all weekend. So what if Haleys friends complain that she doesnt have time for them anymore So what if she has to miss her very first ever school dance, or skip a favorite family tradition, or leave early from her BFFs first boy-girl party Everyone will get it when they see her in the Olympics someday.
