Show Highlights:
 
The 2010 Spring Classic Quarter Horse Show had its best year ever this past May long weekend!

The outstanding warm weather allowed exhibitors to show outside for the first time in over 5 years, alternating between two show rings, which helped the show itself run smoothly and had all scheduled classes completed before dark.

We thank the Orangeville Agricultural Society for adding new structures to their existing facility including a new barn, warm up rings, parking and a great sound system all courtesy of the fantastic site facilitator Mr. Scott Armstrong.

A sincere thank you to all of our Area 3 staff and volunteers for their continued assistance and support including: Jean Walker, Becky Trudeau, Megan Patterson, Theresa Watts, Ken McLellan, Jessica Mosley Cairncross, Corey Taylor, Beth & Brittany White, and Leslie Ellins.  We also thank all of the exhibitors for making this Area 3’s best show yet!

We would also like to thank Cheri Woodrow, the Area3 youth and the volunteers who put on a fantastic pasta dinner at the Spring Classic.  Pasta, salads, desserts and beverages were enjoyed by everyone. Thanks to everyone who bought tickets for this youth fundraiser.

And another thank you - to long time supporters and sponsors Barb & Jim Lockyer (Peace Acres Farm) and Ray Laviolette (Circle R Saddlery) for their donations to the free morning coffee & donuts at the Spring Classic.  It was greatly appreciated by all exhibitors!

Sincerely,
Valerie Love
Show Co-Ordinator
