Oakridge is proud to announce that senior Cailey Cobb recently signed with Sweet Briar College to ride on their Hunt Seat Equestrian Team.
In addition to being an accomplished rider, Cailey is the spirited personality behind the Oakridge mascot, Big Al, and has been an integral part of the cheerleading team for four years. She has exhibited patience in teaching beginning riders the basics in safety and horsemanship, and served as a mentor and role model to her younger classmates. She is also an Oakridge Alpha and Omega, having started at The Oakridge School at age 3.
Although she’ll soon be a Sweet Briar Vixen, no one at Oakridge doubts that she’ll always be an Owl at heart. Best wishes to Cailey on her next great adventure!
