Brittany comes by the love of horses naturally - her mother, Jennifer Merrick Brooks also rides and acts as Brittany’s<br />
coach. Brittany’s top horse is Trademark, a resale project that she ended up keeping for herself. In their fi rst two-star<br />
event, the 2005 CCI** Radnor Hunt International Three Day Event, Trademark and Brittany were the highest-placed<br />
foreign competitors. The result put them on the Canadian Eventing Team Long List for the fi rst time.<br />
An active member of the Pony Club for most of her childhood, her involvement has allowed her the opportunity to travel.<br />
Her biggest trip came in 1999 when she was selected to participate on the Mounted Games Team headed for Australia.<br />
Brittany is now an HA member of the Huron Valley Pony Club in the Great Lakes Region as well as a visiting instructor.<br />
In 2003, she attended the National Youth Congress in California as the Regional<br />
Delegate.<br />
Brittany enjoys the support of her parents as well as her sister and two younger<br />
brothers. A third year student at Eastern Michigan University, she is currently<br />
taking time off in order to concentrate on her riding. Brittany also has a keen<br />
interest in photography and has displayed her work in exhibitions.<br />
