April, 2008

    Rain, Rain go away, we want to go show our horses. Hard to get these horses out and practice in the mud!! Our first show is creeping up on us. The first CRSHA horse show will be Saturday, May 17^th at 6:00 p.m. at the Brighton Saddle Club. This will be our Annual Show and we will be showing for double points. There is no payback, but there will be random drawings for prizes in each class. If you have any item you would like to donate as a "prize" for the annual show, please bring it to the show and we will sure use it Come join us in the fun and support CRSHA.

    Robert Dunbar donated the trophies he has received over the years to CRSHA. We will "recycle" these and give them to the youth at our shows this year. Thank you Robert! If anyone has any trophies they would like to donate, please call David McElwain at (417) 881-4363 or Nancy McCowan at (417) 993-5550. Any size or shape of trophy will be appreciated and they do not need to be horse show trophies; we can fix that right up!!

    The Invitational Show is right on track. Lee and Judith Rollins have things really rolling for the 2008 Invitational. All the Associations who are interested in joining us, be sure and send your "Letter of Intent" in as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please contact Lee at (417) 224-2611 or Judith at (417) 343-4819 and they will be happy to assist you. The Invitational awards committee is busy getting prizes together for the show. They have come up with some great ideas for really nice prizes.

    Everyone is certainly looking forward to seeing the new babies come out for the first show. So get your babies and lounge line horses ready to go show at Brighton.

Happy Trails to You…………. Until we meet again,
