Camas teen is Washington’s No. 1 high school equestrian

Camas equestrian Ashlyn Anderson went head-to-head with the top high school equestrians in the Pacific Northwest and finished No. 1 in the “showmanship” category at the Pacific Northwest Invitational Championships in Redmond, Oregon, this summer.

Only the top high school equestrians from Washington and Oregon are invited to the annual equestrian championship event, which is held a few weeks after state competitions in mid-June. Anderson, who will be a senior at Camas High this year, qualified by finishing second in showmanship at the Washington State Championship in May.
