Draper Therapies® Presents the Best Foot Forward Award to Melissa Matos and Laura Karet During Winter Equestrian Festival
Wellington, FL (April 3, 2013) – Draper Therapies®, a leading company providing holistic therapy products for animals and humans, was excited to present their Best Foot Forward Award to Melissa Matos of Stuart, Florida and Laura Karet of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania for demonstrating true horsemanship along with always bringing a positive attitude to the shows during the Winter Equestrian Festival in Wellington, Florida. Matos was excited to win a new Draper Therapies saddle pad, and plans to use it on her new beautiful Anglo-Arabian horse, Whisper, who she is riding in the Low Adult Amateur Hunters. “My parents teach me how to be a good sport with everything,” explained Matos about winning the award, “My dad was a tri-athlete for years, so I understand a lot about competitive sportsmanship. That, and years of riding has taught me that a positive attitude is the best attitude to have!” Matos is training with Sean Jones at Palm Beach Riding Academy. Jones also recognizes that her positive attitude contributes to her competitive success. “Melissa is a very quick learner, and she has a lovely horse. She keeps getting better and better every week,” he said. They were both appreciative to Draper for also noticing that Matos always puts her Best Foot Forward when she and Whisper are at the shows, giving it their best.
