Wee Bella and her papa Bruce will be sponsoring two classes, they are figuring out which two now. Hopefully I'll have check and info by the end of the week, Bruce tends to get distracted due to workload. For those of you who don't know Bella, she had her first horse experience with JR thanks to SAFE and Mara, and is about as horse crazy a four-year-old as I've ever come across. Scroll on down to her photos: schwung.proboards67.com/index.cgi?board=adopted&action=display&thread=393&page=14I am, of course, encouraging this horse bug. ;D Say, a couple questions: is there an admission fee for either horse and rider or for the peanut gallery?

I am delighted to announce that Barn Pros has agreed to return for a second year as the presenter of the SAFE Benefit Horse Show. They have signed on to sponsor at the $1000 level.
Please join me in congratulating REDMOND! for acquiring this major sponsor. She worked very very hard to get this to happen. Thanks to her polite persistence, her friendly rapport with the staff at Barn Pros, and her enthusiasm for SAFE, we are now in excellent shape in terms of financing for this show. Getting this sponsorship was in no way a foregone conclusion, but Valerie handled it brilliantly.
Woooooot!

Redmond, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You work so hard for SAFE's horses, and given the state of the economy, this is extra great news! You are a multi-talented person, and how. When I see you next I am darn well going to bring you some kind of adult beverage to toast you with (what do you like??). Thank you. (MTA more superlatives)

Wouldn't hurt MY feelings to have some sort of "after the show" toast.
I'm pretty much a Miller Light kinda gal. I can be persuaded to drink Mike's Hard Lime tho.
Thaaat's about it.....
thank you everyone - I just cannot say enough nice things about Barn Pros - they are so nice and Cindy, their Marketing Manager is just a gem. It looks like her daughter will be presenting the trophies on behalf of Barn Pros so we are pretty darn excited about the whole thing!

Jaybird, I would like to donate $100 in the name of Trop's Chocolates. I can get you the logo if there's still time to get them into the program. Also, I have proposed to have our chocolates for sale at the concessions with 50% of the proceeds to go to SAFE. I hope this works out.

Two new sponsors to announce:
Trop's Chocolates is sponsoring at the $100 level. Big thanks to co-owner Lynnm for this!
Improvements Plus, Inc. is sponsoring at the $250 level. This is the company that built the footing for the three arenas at Bridle Trails.
Thank to both new sponsors!!
