Jamie Landis
Treasurer
Jamie has been with the club since 2011 when her family moved in next door. She joined the board in 2012. Jamie took over the role of treasurer in 2016 and then became president of the club in 2018. Jamie has always loved horses but the bug caught when her grandmother got her riding lessons for her 12th birthday. She spent her teen years learning and falling in love with riding at a hunter jumper barn in central PA. Today she enjoys spending time with horses doing mounted archery, gymkhana and trail riding. She loves being a part of Buxmont because it is a place that anyone that loves horses can come enjoy showing and spending time with their horse. Jamie is proud to be a part of a great local club that offers quality shows in a variety of disciplines.

Audrey McMichael
Board Member
Audrey has been a member of the club since 2008. She was appointed club Treasurer in 2018. Audrey has owned horses for most of her life. She became a horse "addict" from her very first pony ride. From then until now, she's shown Hunters, Jumpers, and now focuses on Dressage and the occasional trail ride. Running her own business and keeping the organization's financial information on track laid a very natural groundwork for becoming the riding club's treasurer. She is thrilled to be a part of a thriving organization, especially one that is all about horses!

Once she graduated, she got back into horses and started competing in show jumping locally and on the recognized show circuit. She was very successful in competing in the Marshall & Sterling and National Adult jumper leagues. Work commitments made it challenging to continue to compete at the same level, she discovered Buxmont Riding Club, became a member and began competing in hunter/jumper shows.
