For election to a one-year term:
Sara Thompson: I grew up in Missouri, where I learned to ride in the saddle seat discipline. I relocated to New York many years ago, but my career at the District Attorney's office left me little time for horses. My recent retirement from public service has given me the chance to become a regular rider at Southlands. I have found the community at Southlands to be highly supportive, extremely competent and fun to be around. Southlands is unique in that it provides people of all backgrounds the opportunity to connect with horses, nature and history. I hope to help further its mission.
Amanda Miller: Amanda N. Miller is a local attorney whose practice focuses on real estate transactions. Prior to opening her own firm, Amanda was a partner in a New York City law firm that focused on commodity futures and antitrust class action litigation. Her daughter, Dakota, attended Southlands' Nature Camp last summer, and is beginning the Mommy & Me program this spring. Amanda is interested in Southlands' rich history and its relationship with the local community.
