Hello everyone!!
With school and other fall related activities back in the equation, I’ve decided to hold BOTH September shows as one day events. Dates are
Saturday, September 19 & September 26 . I would REALLY appreciate hearing from everyone sooner than later on what their plans are for these shows.
Special Photos

30 minutes. Session includes one clothing change and a CD of the entire shoot! Please call Julie to reserve a time slot @513-237-3874

Stabling: For those of you with stalls remember; you are asking your trainer and the show to turn someone else away based on your COMMITTMENT to participate. Unable to make the show? 2 WEEKS CANCELLATION NOTICE
REQUIRED!!!!
Cancellation Fee: (horses with stalls only) $100 + $50 stall fee.
Minimum of 2
weeks notice to avoid this fee. If I can rent your stall with a showing horse you will not be charged.
Tack Stalls: Any group may request tack stall (s). I will try and honor these requests Larger groups (6+ horses) will have priority. Please keep in mind that tack stalls do not fill divisions or enhance the competition in any way. Bottom line I reserve the right to limit tack stalls. If I have extra stalls I’m happy to give them as tack stalls.
.
Fees: I am working to keep costs down as best I can. Advance planning is
Key!!!
Classes : $20 except Lead line is $17.
Schooling: $35
Returned check : $25
Shavings: $8
Non-Showing horse with stall: $60 + stabling and schooling fees. A nonshowing horse is defined as one that doesn’t go in a minimum or 3 classes.

Thanks for a fun summer. See you next year!
Warmly,
