Luna’s Extreme Mustang Makeover Journey 2020

The Beginning to Current ~ Overview

2020 has been quite the year! The pandemic causing delays and adjustments to just about everything, and especially public events. One such event that was effected was the Extreme Mustang Makeover for California. It was supposed to be held between the dates of April 24-25 (pick up days) to the competition days August 7-9th. 

When Trainer Monica O. Krause was chosen to participate in this event, it was during the beginning stages of the pandemic. The previous dates for the makeover had then been given the status of TBA. For two months it wasn’t known if where or when the competition would take place, until finally the trainers were given notice that it would be continued as a virtual event. 

The 100 days to work with the wild horses would begin on July 17-18 (pick up days) and end for the trainers to submit their virtual competition videos on October 30th. Here is the event hosts website https://extrememustangmakeover.com/events/los-angeles/

The actual online event will take place as a watch party on Facebook.
