Meet Us
We are a big family that works, 'lives', and plays together at Fox Point Farm. We thought you might like to get to know some of the key 'players' of our group.
Charlotte Cannon
is the original owner of Fox Point Farm founded in 1989. As a multiple
World Champion Trainer, she founded Showing Naturally in 2006 to address the lack of understanding and purity in
today's showhorse. She strives to achieve the highest goals using natural
concepts and techniques to prove fear and intimidation should be a thing of the
past in horsetraining. Most recently Charlotte was chosen by Pat Parelli to head
up a new global
Parelli Kids Program. As a lifelong student of natural horsemanship,
she is thrilled at the opportunity to educate and inspire more horsemen and
women of the future! Click

Tommy Robinson
and his Robinson Show Horses have been
based in Yadkinville NC for the past 5 years; but in July 2007 he made the big
move to Lancaster and everyone is delighted to have access to his expertise and
knowledge. Tommy has had incredible success in both the AQHA and APHA show
worlds. He brings a winning national record with him with great strength in
Trail, Western Pleasure, Showmanship, Horsemanship, Equitation and Hunter Under
Saddle. Training multiple horses and riders to APHA World Championships,
Honor Roll and National Top Twenty wins are just a few of his accomplishments.
He is also an approved open show judge which gives him a greater perspective on
what it takes to stand out.
Lauren
Elhers-Koch grew up riding and showing in the Charlotte NC are. As a
junior in high school she brought her horse to Charlotte and fortunately for us,
never left. She lives with her family at the Indian Land location. We are so
grateful to have such a conscientious knowledgeable friend to take care of our
precious 'ponies' every day!
Richard Koch is Lauren's husband. You can
always find Richard working around the house or barn. Most weekends he will be
right beside the playground playing with their daughter Kayla. We are happy
Lauren made such a good choice!
Robin Woschkolup is always busy working
out all our problems. Robin and her daughter Madison both ride here. Robin is
the first voice most people get to know; she handles the phone. It is an ominous
job but she keeps everyone scheduled and informed. We could not live without
her! Next time you see Robin, shake her hand and say 'thanks' for keeping us
together!
Jane McDowell has been with us since her
early high school days too. Jane is a dear friend and is always there to help us
in any way we ask. Her main job is taking care of the horses at the Lancaster
location when Tommy has to be away. Jane is an excellent listener and is ready
to make everyone feel 'right at home' from the start!
Pedro Hernandez has been with Fox Point about 5 years. Pedro is polite to everyone and meticulous in his work. Pedro works on the weekends with his wife at our Indian Land location. Everything always looks perfect when Pedro is here.
Ben Moore takes care of all the 'big
stuff' at the Indian Land location. With the horrible hay shortage this year,
Ben stepped up and found us hay and got it here. He and his dad built our new
barn by themselves on their days off. He fixes countless fences and anything
else that needs fixing. I think the horses would tear everything down around us
if it were not for Ben constantly building it back up. He even built this
website when he was bored. We are so grateful to have he and his family as
members of our family!
Bryan Fisher is our 'newest' family member, landing for good in 2005. His daughter Avery started taking lessons from Charlotte when she was 5. They got so involved with horses they managed another barn for several years, always returning for summer camp. Finally they returned and Brian has been a blessing! He builds/fixes fences in Lancaster, puts up feeders in Indian Land, finds countless bits and saddles for everyone on the internet. He has worked hard to add animation and cool new stuff to our ever evolving website. If you need help, he and Avery are always there to assist you with a positive attitude and a kind word.
