Another wonderful reason for hope is the young exhibitors who are the future of the horse show world. One of the brightest up-and-coming stars is young Trinity Bell whose #warriorup motto helps give her strength, both in the arena and in life.

About the Cover
Trinity Bell, the daughter of Don and Joetta Bell, may be just ten-years-old, but she is no stranger to the show arena. Her horse, A Certain Faith is four years older than she is and has been the perfect partner for Trinity to learn the ropes. Last year, the duo won the Small Fry Western Pleasure at the Quarter Horse Congress. This win was special to the Bell Family because Trinity’s mother, Joetta (Meredith) won the Small Fry Horsemanship at nine-years-old in 1990.
Earlier this year, Trinity debuted in the loping classes at the Dixie Nationals. She competed in Level 1 Youth and 13 & Under All-Around classes. “This was her first show to compete in loping classes as she has only competed in Small Fry and walk-trot classes. She ended up the Level 1 Youth All-Around Champion. She also won every class circuit championship in which she competed,” her proud mom, Joetta told us.
Trinity, who also loves basketball, dance, soccer, and art, is looking forward to getting back in the show arena. Due to being a Type 1 Diabetic with Celiac, she has stringent diet restrictions. With two autoimmune diseases, the family has to be very careful to monitor her glucose levels throughout the day. With the COVID-19 outbreak, they have to be even more diligent. “Horses are her reprieve,” Joetta adds. “They help develop focus, muscles from riding, and faith in herself.”
“Her goals for this year include staying healthy, ride 20 minutes without irons, and be the Small Fry All-Around at the Congress,” her mom says. “Horses are a gift, and we are so blessed to have the horse. What would we be without them? Trinity has had great coaches early on in her riding career, and she loves to learn new events. The future is hers to design, for she is stronger than she knows.”
