Mohegan Vardas Megastorm was born on the 21 of November 2008, a beautiful red dun filly with unusual face marking and a personality to match.
Mum & I halter broke and watched her as she grew into a strong, cheeky woolly mammoth of a weanling. She learnt quickly what was expected of her.
We starting showing her as a yearling her first big show was the Dilutes in Muchea with her father by her side for confidents Cayuse Awesome Storm took out the Supreme of Supreme.
More shows followed and it quickly became apparent that our filly was very special. Long hours of training by Mum ( Karen White ) and preparation by myself went into bring the best out of this easy going filly.
My partner Quentin and I have enjoyed the opportunity to have this wonderful filly in our lives, when we aren’t showing Nevada, she loves going out on the trail surrounded by her family which includes her Uncle Duncan, Awesome and Meg.

Well after a year off, due to health issues, it is now time to get the whip cracking and conquer the New Year that is 2011.
After enduring significant knee problems over the last 3 years, I “bit the bullet” and finally had a successful partial knee reconstruction. Of which I am now cleared to ride, within reason and which I am sure will make for an exciting and “pain free” year ahead.
The new 2011 Mohegan Clinic Schedule is almost complete, so keep a lookout on the website over the up and coming weeks for that and please don’t hesitate to drop me a line if you have any clinic suggestions you would like to see more of in the future. The Emotional Horse & Getting Back In The Saddle Clinics have been a huge success in the past.
The Mohegan Picture Gallery will soon be updated also, with snaps of all of the recent goings on and shenanigans.
Whilst I was laid up in knee recover, I took the opportunity to commence studies into the Equine Assisted Psychotherapy program with EAGALA, of which I am very excited and of which I will be working hard toward gaining accreditation to with more studies to come in Sydney this year.
Check out EAGALA’s website www.eagala.org
Over the years I have used my own horses as a similar concept/therapy with The Cancer Kids at PMH and I have always found how healing the horses are naturally. I am hoping in the coming years that this training will be a bigger focus for me and with the assistance of the EAGALA, who are tirelessly working to cut through the “red-tape” to be recognised as an alternative therapy, to incorporate rebates.
I hope everyone has had a great new beginning to 2011 and I am looking forward to bigger and much better things this year for me and all of you out there.
Best wishes
Karen White & all the Mohegan Horses

Mini Performance (day 2) Humbug had a fantastic start to the performance, however as the programme was so behind – supposed to finish at 12 noon and wasn’t even half way through at 2pm – we had to withdraw due to other commitments. Looking forward to the Dilutes Mini Performance where I’m sure Humbug will shine and show his true potential.
CONGRATULATIONS GIRLS!!!
