SHOW NEWS:
Our First show is coming up Soon!

March 13th is a two judge Pinto show. The scheduled Judges are Terry Henderson and Jim Eaton.  The Open Show will be on Sunday the 14th with Rocky Gidden judging. 
We have made some changes to the Show Fees.  We will not have a Grounds Fee, but we did change the Pinto Class Fee to $17.00 Per Class and the All Day Fee for anything over 6 classes will now be charged Per Horse not Horse/ Rider Combination. 
What does that mean - if you and your child ride the same horse you pay only one All Day Fee not two. The All Day Fee does increase when multiple Divisions are entered. Example: If you show in Open & Amateur the all day fee is $100. If you show in Open, AM and AM Novice the All Day Fee will be $125. The maximum would be if you show in Open, AM, AM Nov, and your child shows the same horse in Youth the all day fee would be $150.
The Open Show Fees will be $7.00 per class or $40.00 All Day. With a $7.00 Office Fee. 
Stall Fees will be $10.00 per day, and The RV Charge will reflect a Seasonal Adjustment June thru September will be $20.00 per day, all other months will be $15.00 per day. 
The price increase will be used for awards. We like giving nice awards, and we know you enjoy receiving them!
