My name is Anne Crow current President of ECOSA 2025 Show Season. I am excited for the inauguration of our new ECOSA Organization and cannot wait to see what the future holds for our local equestrian community. I have lived and worked within the local community over the last 19 years as a local healthcare provider and business owner. I have had the privilege to participate and volunteer in the Equestrian community for the past 11 years and been provided the opportunity to learn all aspects of what is required to plan, prepare, and execute a successful show. Our priority this year is to broaden our exposure and increase participation of All breeds in a welcoming/safe environment for all equestrians and local clubs that want to exhibit their horse. We want you to want to be here showing and challenging yourself and your horse to your fullest potential while making memories and friendships that will keep you coming back! Please reach out at anytime time for any input, questions, or concerns! 

Looking forward to 2025,

Anne Crow

Hi, I’m Angie Reichert, and horses have been my passion for as long as I can remember. With over 40 years of experience in training and more than 25 years as a judge, I’ve had the privilege of working with some incredible riders and horses. I hold eight judging breed cards and have been part of nearly 200 World, Reserve World, and Congress Championships, whether through my own efforts or those of my amazing clients. Being part of the Emerald Coast Open Horse Show Association is an honor, and I’m grateful to share my love for the equine world with such a wonderful community.

The horse world has completely captured my heart since 2020. As a show parent, I’ve experienced it all – from prestigious major shows to intimate local events, and everything in between. My daughter’s equestrian journey has taken us across the country, giving me a unique perspective from both sides of the fence. I’ve evolved from sitting in the bleachers watching classes and managing show logistics to experiencing the sport firsthand.

In fact, this past October, I stepped into the show ring myself in the walk trot category – an experience that transformed my understanding of this incredible sport. Nothing prepares you for the challenge of partnering with a 1,200-pound animal with its own mind, learning to trust your instincts, and building confidence with a partner who could spook at something as simple as a bird! This personal experience, combined with my roles as both a show parent and administrator, has given me a deep appreciation for every level of rider in our sport.

Now, as Treasurer of the Emerald Coast Open Show Association, I’m excited to bring the best elements from larger shows to our local events while maintaining that special community atmosphere. I love watching riders of all ages and abilities pursue their passion and achieve their goals in the show ring.

Hi, I’m Jennifer Murphy, and I’m proud to serve as a board member for the Emerald Coast Open Horse Show Association. As the owner of two horses, I’ve gained a deep connection to the equestrian world. Watching my daughter spend five years competing in all-around events has given me valuable insight into the importance of sportsmanship, equine welfare, and the support of a strong community.

In my professional life, I work full-time as a technical writer, where I get to use my love for clear communication to create concise and effective content. I’ve also spent three years running my own business, an experience that taught me a lot about the challenges and opportunities faced by small businesses and organizations.

I live in Crestview, Florida, and I’m passionate about giving back to the equestrian community that has brought so much joy to my family.

Hi! I’m Liz, I have been actively involved with showing and owning horses for 34 years now. I have traveled the US, showing and working with different breeds throughout my lifetime, including saddlebreds, hunter jumpers, dressage, cutting horses, endurance, and now Arabians. I love the passion and friendships built by working in the equine world and have spent the previous two years as a show manager. my favorite spot is working the gate for the shows.

I look forward to another successful year of being a support system for our show series/community, and I’m always open to any questions.
