We are Lori Albrough and Stefan Vorkoetter, owners of Bluebird Lane Fjords.

Lori and the foal Bluebird Lane Kestrel April 2000

Lori's horse experience started early - she began riding at the age of eleven, joined the Pony Club at age thirteen and got her first horse soon after. In Pony Club she learned all aspects of horse care and horsemanship, achieved her C-2 Level, and was active in training and competing in eventing (consisting of dressage, cross-country jumping, and stadium jumping).

She appreciates and credits her Pony Club years for providing the excellent foundation for her future horse-related activities. As Sophie Pirie Clifton, Stanford Law Professor and Pony Club graduate, was quoted as saying in the April 2000 issue of Practical Horseman:

"You can go anywhere in the world and people will trust you with their horses. A C-level Pony Club member is welcome anywhere."

Stefan is also a long-time horseperson, who started riding at age thirteen and got his first horse, a thoroughbred saddlebred cross, a year later. Stefan is involved in the day-to-day operation of the farm, and acts as Lori's groom, photographer, videographer, and support team when we go to shows and clinics.
