Aleena

Hello, my name is Aleena, I’m 11 years old and this is my first year as a KSC junior princess.

My family owns & operates Roze-El Stables. My horses are a paint named Kalypso & a welsh pony named Gadget.

We love to ride and compete in several disciplines: jumping, gaming and trail. When I am not riding, I love having game nights with my family.

Piper

Hello my name is Piper. I am 9 years old and have loved riding since I was 6. I have two horses that I ride; Evee and Zasie. My favorite events are Play Days at the Saddle Club. I also enjoy trail riding with my family and friends. This is my first year as Kitsap saddle club princess and I am very excited to grow within my role  as a member of this amazing club. This year my goal is to become more confident in the saddle and to improve my horsemanship. Outside of my love for riding horses, I also love soccer and basketball.

Scarlett

2026 Senior Princess

Hey everyone! I’m Scarlett. I’m one of the intermediate Saddle Club Princesses for the year of 2025-2026. My happiest moments are spent in the saddle.

Growing up with natural love for animals, I discovered horseback riding at the age of six and been devoted to the sport ever since. If I’m not at school or sleeping, there is a high chance you can find me at a barn, part of 4-H equestrian club or riding at Pets Galore.

There’s nothing quite like riding with people who share the same passion and riding with friends is the best. My dedication to riding horses has taught me about responsibility, confidence and value hard work, that has carried over into school and everyday life. I’ve realized that being a good rider isn’t just about what happens in the saddle; it’s about the person you become while you're working toward your goals.

Even though I don't own a horse of my own yet, I stay busy riding at different barns with two amazing horses, Lyra and Jewell. I’ve been training with both of them and it’s been a great way to challenge myself and learn how to work with different personalities.

Whether we’re practicing hard for a show or just hanging out, I’m always focused on learning, growing, and enjoying every ride. I really love the community we have here in Kitsap County and it has been amazing to be surrounded by people who care about horses as much as I do.

Valenae

2026 Senior Princess

Hi everyone! I’m Val, your 2026 KSC Princess. This is my second year representing the club, and I couldn’t be more excited!

When I’m not at the saddle club, you can usually find me hanging out with my goofy gelding Dewey, playing soccer, or spending time with my local 4-H club.

I’m so ready for an amazing year full of fun events, great memories, and representing a club I love.
