Today released a first-of-its-kind study by Nationwide Children's Hospital, funded by Nationwide Foundation, that combines measures of parental confidence with workplace productivity and reveals children’s mental health has a significant impact on parents' work. We all must work together; our study includes how employers can help.

Many of our volunteers will recall Joanne and John May, long time volunteer captains at The Classic. They gave their time to help host thousands of families for 15 consecutive years! We are so sorry to share that both John and Joanne fell ill from Coronavirus. We join John in mourning the loss of Joanne and send lots of love his way during this difficult time.

Share Memories and Support the Family.

An update from our friend Beezie Madden / John Madden Sales, Inc.

Beezie, John and all of Team JMS want to first take a moment to thank all our friends, fans, and supporters whom have reached out since last night's The Chronicle Of The Horse article. We have received an overwhelming amount of positive support and it is so appreciated.

We also want to clarify from the article that this is NOT a retirement or a stepping away, just a change in focus. Moving forward beyond 2020, we will continue to do what we've always done with horses like Authentic over the years. We will focus on developing them to be their best. You will continue to see Beezie in the show ring at top competitions; the difference will be that at some point the horses, like Coach with Katherine Strauss, will progress toward the Championship level with other riders.

Some of our best moments and memories have been with our teammates representing the USA in big events over the years and we remain focused on doing all we can to help the US Team in 2020. If we can help the US by competing in one more Olympics, it will be our whole team's honor and main mission to prepare to do our best.

We look forward to helping a few talented young riders grow in their horsemanship and Grand Prix careers. There are so many victories in this sport, not just the big moments with gold medals and top ribbons, but also the wins that occur when a young horse successfully takes the next step in their training or when a student accomplishes a long sought after goal. If we can serve the US Team by being a small part of preparing the next generation of horses and horsemen, we suspect those victories will feel just as sweet as the ones we stood in the ring for.

The future is exciting, and we are blessed to have our whole team, from Mrs. Wexner, to our staff, to our wonderful sponsors, to our vets, and farriers, behind us. Team JMS is filled with people whose love of this sport is really all about a love for the horse and that will always remain unchanged.

Even if a child has repeatedly witnessed violence at home, they can still live successful, healthy lives as adults. This begins with resilience.
