We’re thrilled to announce that the recipient of our 2025 DRHC Scholarship is Anna Dieffenbach!
Anna will be taking on the Gaucho Derby in February 2026 — a legendary 500km multi-horse endurance race across the rugged and breathtaking landscapes of Patagonia, Argentina. This extraordinary event tests every facet of a rider’s skill, from navigation and horsemanship to backcountry survival, all while riding among 40 international competitors. Anna’s journey promises to be an unforgettable adventure, filled with challenge, courage, and discovery. We invite everyone to follow her progress, share in her preparations, and show support as she trains for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Stay tuned for updates as we cheer Anna on her path to Patagonia — and celebrate the spirit of dedication, adventure, and horsemanship that makes our community proud!
We’ll share more details on how you can follow Anna’s progress during the race as they become available. Let’s come together as Dog River Horse Club members to cheer her on and make this a winter to remember—supporting Anna every step of the way and following her incredible journey on our website and Facebook page!
