Outside of showing horses, Dana works for Smart Chicken and chases a rambunctious toddler around. She has been showing with Iowa Pinto since 2018 and this is her first year on the board.
Andrea Schrage
Andrea grew up horse crazy to the dismay of her non-horsey parents. She spent her childhood tearing around on a little white pony, eventually joining 4-H and showing all the events. She worked her way through 4-H and open shows, taking a couple year break to race chuckwagons, then eventually started showing breed shows and achieved her childhood dream of becoming a world champion.
She currently mostly shows in all the Ranch classes along with some Showmanship and Horsemanship. She also likes the Pleasure and the Hunter under saddle classes but if she had to pick her favorite, It would have to be the Ranch Riding, with Western Riding being a close second. She loves the different parts of the patterns and the connection between the horse and rider to execute each maneuver. She looks forward to serving on the board!

Ashlee Crawford
is my first year showing my personal horse that I have done all the training with. I have been able to
check some bucket list items off this year such as Pinto World Show, my first futurity, and Pinto
Congress! This year my horse Nash and I received the Yearling Triad award and Pinto horse of the year.
Showing with the Iowa pinto crew has been such an amazing and confidence boosting experience
getting to know so many people.
Outside of horses I love to travel, any chance I get I like to hike in the mountains or in the ocean. I spent
2 1⁄2 years living in New Zealand exploring a different part of the world. Now, I am a phlebotomist and
currently in school for Nursing. This is my first year on board!
