The day began with the Halter events taking
place in a heavy fog. After the fog cleared the afternoon
provided pleasant weather for the riders, spectators and horses
as well.
In all there were fifty-two events that
included Showmanship, Hunter Western Pleasure, Trail and Barrel
racing. There was a full day of fun for those in attendance.

The Collage Scholarship donations came from
food sales and fees. Spectators were treated to free admission
to Saturday's event. |
