Atlanta Spring Classic II and Updates

First I want to thank you for a wonder set of winter circuits.  We started in January in Green Cove Springs, followed by a week off and then Gulfport followed by another week off and Conyers.  A great 12 weeks all over the corners of the southeast.  Thanks for making this a great winter of horse shows.

Second, I want to thank all the sponsors who help to make the circuits possible along with Equestrian Travel who make our housing simple and cost effective.

We had lots of fun this winter and we still have lots in store for you in our summer shows that are listed at the bottom of this message.  We have made some giant changes to our summer shows in Atlanta and Charleston due to requests from our exhibitors and trainers.

This week in Atlanta ends our 12 weeks together and it was a wonderful week.  I do want to thank Southern States for the donation of 500 lbs of Southern States Feed.  It was won by Leah Heithold of Denver, NC.  Congrats.  I also want to thank Southern States for the Dipin Dots they brought to the show last week too.

Atlanta Spring Classic I and Updates

We started out this week in shorts and ended the week in sweaters.  I simply wanted a quick shower to wash some of the pollen off my car.  I always say be careful what you wish for… well we had some rain.  Not as bad as it was north and south of us but it was wild last night here in Conyers after the Grand Prix.

Our Cherry Blossom Grand Prix was won by On My Way MB, owned and ridden by Natalie Geller.

Gulfport TV and Other Updates

Just some updates and FYIs.

The Gulf Coast Winter Series started today and WLOX, the local television station, came out and was live at our event.  If you would like to watch the short video please click here: http://www.wlox.com/global/Category.asp?c=194069. We are the third video on the left.

We have posted a new schedule on our webpage for the Gulf Coast Winter Classic I.  The changes were minor but because we produce our prize list in the fall and then the annual meetings of USHJA and USEF are in December and January we sometimes must make adjustments to new rules.

Just a second reminder for some other changes…

1. We will offer a non restricted 1.0m Children’s Adult Jumper section because of the new zone specs.

2. We will offer a Walk, Walk Trot, and Crossrails classes that will follow the short stirrup in the schedule.

If you still have not reserved your stalls please call us ASAP because we are putting up more stalls on Monday and I am sure that will be the last visit from our tent man.  Call 228.832.9255 for reservations.
