NEW! Arabian Fun Show in Waterloo at Cattle Congress Grounds - May 13, 2007 |
|
Here are pictures taken from our 2007 Cattle Congress Show! |
|
Well, this was the first year the NE District held their Cattle Congress Fun Show. We only drew in 15 horses for the day, but we managed to get everyone to enter LOTS of classes throughout the day so the show was a tremendous hit!! We even had a couple that drove in all the way from Albany, Wisconsin to come to the show. Everyone had so much fun that we're going to try to do it again next year!! |
|
|
| Our biggest class of the day -- Open Walk Trot. 11 Entries (almost every horse at the show was in this one!!) |
 |
| Open Halter class was a big one, too! |
 |
| A nice 17 & Under Wester Pleasure Class (even one without a saddle!! :o) |
 |
| Horses warming up in the ring .... |
 |
| More warm up ... |
 |
| Sean sets out all the trophies for the show and Barb help the exhibitors sign up for more classes! |
 |
| So many beautiful horses at the show! |
 |
| Russ made a super ring man for the day ... |
 |
| More classes .... |
 |
| Lots of spectators come out for the day to watch all the horses... |
 |
 |
| The show office was a busy place ..... Hey! The little mini horse wants to sign up for his own classes!! |
 |
| Everyone relaxes during the long lunch break |
|
|
| The Beahr Ridge Bunch eating lunch and having fun! |
 |
| Many tied their horses to their trailers for the day... |
 |
| There was one little girl at the show that had never sat on a horse before .... so Lynnae offered to let her sit on Khash for the Lead Line Class ... Her Aunt walked by her side so she wouldn't be afraid. What a great way to promote our Arabian horses!! They were at the Fairgrounds with the Rabbit Show .... but now the little girl wants to buy an ARABIAN HORSE!!! :o) |
 |
| OK ..... we even had one DRIVING HORSE at the show!! .... Go little Cody!! |
 |
| ... if you look really close you'll see the little puppy that rode around in the cart, too! Hey -- He looks just like Toto!?! |
 |
| Another sharp looking Western Pleasure class ... |
 |
| This is our "Pairs" class .... we had three entries. A pair of Pintos, a pair of Paints, and a pair of Arabians... |
| It was really neat watching the "Pairs" ride around side by side together and take each stride together and turn together. |
 |
| The "Pairs" line up .... and our winner today is ..............The Arabian pair!! (Ridden by the Bono Sisters .... :o) |
 |
| Our little mini comes out again to play in the "In Hand Trail" class! |
 |
| More excitement in the afternoon ...... In the middle is Roxanne riding her 29 year old Arabian who won 3 out of 4 game classes!! Not bad for an old man, huh?! |
 |
| Hooray! We won the wine glasses!!! --- A very happy mother on Mother's Day!! |
