Bella Servadio

She lives in Clovis, Ca and is a junior at Clovis High School, where she is an active member of the FFA. She is currently raising a steer for the Fresno Fair, where she will show him in showmanship and market classes. Her mom has always had a love for horses, but never had any growing up. Mom decided to start lessons as an adult and thought it would be fun for her and her sisters to take lessons with her. In the beginning, Bella had a hard time enjoying it because it was so challenging, but once she found a great instructor and learned all the different disciplines there are, she really fell in love with riding and the challenge became fun. It has brought her here today, riding in front of all of you!
