Letter from the President;
This time of year is always an exciting; warmer weather,new foals running through the pasture, end of the school year, graduations and best of all the Appaloosa Horse Show season is BACK! I want to encourage all of you to make plans to attend our annual QUAD-A-RAMA APPALOOSA SHOW on the 16th and 17th of May at the University of Findlay Western Farm. This is the largest show in Ohio and a great place to show your horses, see your friends and compete for some great High Point Awards. This a double point show for our members, so I want to remind you to nominate you and your horses for year end awards.
There will be a chicken BBQ dinner at the end of the day on Saturday, a 50/50 raffle and the very popular silent auction. I also want to remind you for every $100 of class sponsorships you get a free stall. You can send checks and sponsors names to our treasurer or give it to him at the show when you enter classes in the show office.
The new entrance off of Rt. 68, the new paved camper parking spaces and improved riding areas make this a great place to show. Diane Welch, our show chairman, is working hard to make this one of the best shows in the Midwest. Volunteers are needed to help at the gates,in the office and during the games classes. This show attracts some of the best horses and riders, so if you are not showing come and enjoy a great show.
Chuck Schroeder
