Dennie Holmbeck Memorial Scholarship
In loving memory of our dear friend, Dennie Holmbeck,
Heart and Hooves Horsemanship is proud to award two $250 scholarships for the 2025 H&H year.
Dennie was more than just the first participant in our inaugural clinic in 2014; she was Michelle’s unwavering support, inspiration, and cherished friend. She embodied the heart of the H&H family, always willing to lend a hand and share her kindness.
Her beloved horse, Pecos, continues to be an active part of the H&H family, a testament to Dennie’s enduring spirit and love for horses.
Dennie’s radiant soul, compassion, and enthusiasm for chasing dreams perfectly exemplified what H&H stands for. Her legacy inspires us to keep supporting each other, nurturing kindness, and striving for joy in everything we do.
