Ladies and Gentlemen,
It’s that time of year again!!! The Iowa Horse Fair will run on March
30, 31, April 1 for 2012. Kristen Rude and I will be coordinating the
demo for our group this year. As you all may have heard, Farrah Green
will not be performing at the Iowa Horse Fair. The good news is that
Carol Lowery, PNH 2 star Instructor will be participating with our
group and will have a booth set up in the Jacobson Center!
Our theme for our demo will be Peace, Love, & Parelli, so it should be
a lot of fun. We are also going to enter the stall decorating contest
in the Horse Barn, which has the opportunity to win a cash prize. We
have been at the fair for a few years now, so it is time to represent!
If you have any groovy 70’s, hippy inspired decorations that we can
use, please let me know. Any song suggestions that compliment this
theme would be great as well! For those who would like to participate
this year, the stall fee is as follows:
Stall:
$30
Tack Stall (shared by 3)/Equipment for Obstacles Stall: $12.50
Decorations Contribution: $5.00
Total: $47.50/per person
The stall fee payment is due by February 10. Payment may be remitted
to me at: 3810 SE 5th Street, Des Moines, IA 50315. Bedding is not
included, so you may bring your own or purchase it at the Barn Office.
For the demo, who is interested in participating? Since this is a
performance, all participants must be playing in Level 3. To go along
with the Peace, Love, & Parelli theme, we ask that all participants
wear a tie-dye shirt. I will have face paint available if anyone would
like to use it as well. :-) We have the theme set, but the location
and time for the demo is still up in the air since space and time is
limited (there are a lot of new performance additions this year).
Circumstances may limit how many can participate at a time. It could
be either one 30 minute demo, or two 15 minute demos. If it is a 30
minute demo, we may break it into 2 demos so there is more space, and
more people can participate. Exact details about the demo are on hold
until we hear more from the IHC. Unfortunately, we will not be holding
the Parelli Tournaments this year, for various reasons.
So if you would like to participate, please let me know so I can put
you on the list! Also, if you have any requests for who you’d like to
be stalled by or share a tack stall with, please let me know.
Thanks everyone! This is going to be a FUN year! :-)
