President’s Notes: Our first show of the season was
great…we had great attendance, and we had a great idea with the third
ring. It proved to be a popular idea
among our clientele…with one exception….and we will adjust accordingly. PLEASE NOTE CHANGES TO THE PRIZE LIST….we offer
our apologies to those who waited so long for the horse hunter divisions,. When we realized we could possibly be there
late into the night, we opted to pull the horse hunter divisions apart,
inconveniencing some of our clients. We
aim to please, and promise to continue to evaluate the flow of the show to
better it for all concerned. Again,
please look at the prize list. We have
NOT changed the class numbers, but we have changed the SEQUENCE of the
classes. They do not follow numerically,
and we hope that this new configuration will accommodate our goal to have
everyone finish in an earlier day.
SHOW FORMAT: The rings have been designated as Ring One
(Horse Hunter Ring) nearest the road.
Ring Two (Pony Hunter Ring) is the center ring. Both of these rings will start toward the end
of the Model classes being held in Ring Three (Pony Ring).
****PLEASE BE SURE TO CHECK THE PRIZE LIST
CAREFULLY WHEN FILLING OUT YOUR ENTRY FORMS****
Ring Four is the
schooling ring in the back behind the “S” barns also known as the Jumper ring,
and the small circular ring beside it is for schooling the little kids ONLY
please…..jumps will be set up in Ring One for Jumpers on Saturday, and in all
three rings for Sunday, with only four jumps in Ring Three. Due to limited availability of jumps for our
first show we were stretched thin, but in future shows the jump availability is
better. Jumps will continue to be set up
in ring Four for schooling. Jumpers can
school after
JUMPERS: Jumpers will continue to be held on Saturday,
not to commence prior to
DRIVING: Driving classes will be held at the end of
our day on Saturday, not to start before

arranging to sort them to their proper owners….
RIBBON EXCHANGE: This year for the first time we will be
offering a ribbon exchange program. You
will be able to receive a coupon good for one SMHA dollar instead of a ribbon
for placement, to exchange for banquet tickets, additions to value of year end
prizes, “shopping” off the SMHA shopping
list at the end of the season, or money off of show fees. If you prefer to cash them in that day, YOU
MUST present them to the office at the close of the day, and make sure they are
properly filled out for credit. We will
have a ribbon tent with ribbon staff for all three rings to coordinate
this….ribbons will not be handed out at the gate, but can be obtained at the
ribbon tent…
SPONSORSHIPS: Again we are soliciting as well for
sponsorships. As a sponsor your name or
business is listed in our show booklet and our banquet booklet, and is
announced with its division at every show.
Great publicity for your business or family!!
