Looking for a few good people to help on the day of the show- in-gate person, timer for the jumpers, and jump crew (replacing dropped rails, changing heights between divisions)-all show personnel get free lunch- There are three ways we can work it: 1) high schoolers can volunteer and get credit for those required community service hours; 2) if a PC or 4H can get a small crew together we will make a donation to your club; or 3) get paid for the day. Call me or email if you can help- it is going to be a beautiful day, with great people and fantastic horses!

THANK YOU to everyone who made the day a success- show staff, volunteers, judges, competitors, and lots of GORGEOUS horses! Our sponsors were wonderful, and there were lots of neat prizes. Our guest in hand judge, Mr Don Litz, did a super job evaluating the entries and his explanations at the end of each class were a high point~ results will be posted on our FB page and on our site in the next day. In the meantime, free downloadable candids are available at:
