Great News

The Region 1 Versatile Arabian group has made it into the 2011 Tournament of Roses.

TDN member Debra Duncan made it in the group again this year. She will be riding Sol Spirit in Native Costume again. Also Jessica George from Lou Roper's ranch will be one of the out walkers. Yeah!

Just want to thank everyone....

who made the clinic at Lou Roper’s ranch a resounding success.  Many thanks to Lou for all the hard work that he and his crew did to put this on. Those of you that were not able to attend missed an informative and humorous day.  

The Fun Show was held on March 27th, 2010

at Aerie Park in Valley Center and co-hosted by TDNAHA and the Valley Center Vaqueros. This was the raindate, and it was a glorious day ! The show had a showmanship at halter class, rail classes and several gymkhana events divided into age groups & walk/jog/ leadline classes so all levels of horses and riders could participate !  This is the last event at this location, as the Vaqueros are moving to another Valley Center location to be confirmed very soon. A fun raffle, delicious food by Emma's Catering wagon and a lot of volunteers made this another great event. We had volunteers and riders from both clubs, and everyone seemed to have a great time ! There are a fair amount of Arabians and Half Arabians in the Vaqueros Club, and it is heartwarming to see them carry some of the small children carefully, and with a sense of duty around the rail, barrels or poles. Many folks have several horses in the family, and some are Arabians ! Thanks again to all who were able to come and ride and/or volunteer !  - Heidi Helly
