The show is still on! We are just going to have to do in hand classes out in the makeup arena and then go from there. The edge of the arena isn't bad for pleasure classe. In the middle it kind of sucks you in a little. But i'm hoping with some sun and wind that it will make it better. See you all today!

At this moment we are still planning on having the arena available starting at 630 for open riding, showmanship & reviewing fair entries today. Wednesday the trail equipment will be available and fair entry reviews. Please feel free to text me directly if there is something you would like to change but will not be at practice this week. This just makes show day easier. Classes can be scratched on show day, but please let me know what you can before then. Thanks - Katie Carlton
