No gaited horse classes on the final list huh? Mercedes will just have to mope at home! Maybe next year? I'd bet there would be more gaited horses up for a class or two than you might think!

So I have a question about the other half leadline class - can the other half ride bareback??
Or... does someone have a HUGE english saddle with a medium tree? Graham is 6'3" and sits on the cantle of my Roosli, so I make him ride Lady [a.k.a. Ms. EverestWithers-RailSpine] without a saddle. (Horse before boyfriend LOL)

While I was at Renton Western Wear in Puyallup today I chatted with the sales girls there for a bit about FUN shows and one of them told me about a class they had at one of the shows she attended:
PIE EATING!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, both horse and handler have to eat a pie before anyone else!
She said she and her horse finished and had time to *bow* before anyone else finished so, of course, she won! HOW Funny is that?
I thought about it all day and how my pig/horse would probably be waaaaay ok with eating a pie that was offered to her! Maybe, it could be a last fun event in a future show....load em up with sugar before they have to go home, not before they have to behave in an equitation class!

Leah, I have an 18" saddle that I used to use on Coconut before I had to get a smaller seat

Oh I should bring my Barnsby polo saddle. It's 18" and fits shark fins.
Hey wait I am bringing it, LOL. It's the only English saddle that fits Honey properly! So just remind me, Leah, you can borrow it.

How are the class sponsorships going. It looks like there are still 30 classes without sponsors.

I sent a donation for a general sponsorship on behalf of Natural Horse Savvy to Bonnie on Friday. How many classes are still unsponsored? Maybe we could do a bit more...

Donation to SAFE $53.00 USD Total Amount: $53.00 USD (Paypal)
Bonnie - just paypal'd 50$ - we'll sponsor the English Equitation - 18 and over class.
oneidea, I think the first post on this thread has been recently updated if you want to see how many classes are left. (I didn't count)
