HOW IT WORKS
We’ll pull into your existing arena and allow Rockyln to do her thing…Pick up rocks. With her pristine design, she is able to pick up a variety of rock sizes, as small as 3/8 going up to 6 inches deep of the surface sifting through without removing your footing. Rocklyn employs a sifting technology used to lift the existing footing from your arena on to a special/secret screen. The screen then sifts the unwanted rock from the arena, while the footing returns to the arena, and the remaining debris is deposited in the bucket.

ROCK RELIEF
Meet Rocklyn. She’s a badass arena rock removal machine designed with few moving parts and extremely durable components.
HERE AT ROCK RELIEF, WE PRIDE OURSELVES FOR HAVING THE ONE AND ONLY ROCK RELIEF MACHINE. UNLIKE “THOSE OTHER COMPANIES” THAT CLAIM TO HAVE AN ARENA ROCK REMOVAL MACHINE, ROCKLYN IS DESIGNED TO REMOVE ROCK SPECIFICALLY FROM ARENAS. SHE IS THE QUEEN OF THE ARENA. THIS IS WHY WE HAVE A SUPERB REPUTATION. Who is Rockyln? She is the one and only to call to remove all of those unwanted arena rocks. Miss Rocklyn has proven herself as a machine that delivers year in, year out. Designed with few moving parts, as well as extremely durable components. Rocklyn THE Arena Rock Removal remains rock solid. We’ll pull into your existing arena and allow Rockyln to do her thing…Pick up rocks. With her pristine design, she is able to pick up a variety of rock sizes, as small as 3/8 going up to 6 inches deep of the surface sifting through without removing your footing. We’ll gather the rock and neatly pile it up for easy removal. She’s built of steel to ensure durability and consistency. Rocklyn employs a sifting technology used to lift the existing footing from your arena on to a special/secret screen. The screen then sifts the unwanted rock from the arena, while the footing returns to the arena, and the remaining debris is deposited in the bucket. 18

THE LINE OF FIRE Tap Duncan “retired” from Texas after his brother was hanged for allegedly killing a family near Carlsbad, Texas. Moving to Idaho, Tap worked as a wagon boss until he got in a gunfight with bad man Billy Hayes in Bruneau. Although cleared of the killing, Duncan departed for Arizona. Along the way, Tom Ketchum joined him, and Ketchum tried to get Duncan to go on a holdup with him. Duncan declined. One family story has it that Ketchum once rode up to the Diamond Bar Ranch on a bicycle, thus giving some credence to the much-hated “Rain Drops Keep Falling On My Head” sequence in Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid.

Arizona Downs Inaugural Summer Meet Begins in May
Memorial Day weekend celebration begins on Friday, May 24
PRESCOTT VALLEY, Ariz. (April XX, 2019) – Year-round horse racing returns to Arizona on Memorial Day weekend when the newly renovated Arizona Downs racetrack kicks off its inaugural
summer live racing season. The action begins on Friday, May 24 when the spacious threefloor venue opens its gates to Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing and an entertainmentpacked season that continues every weekend through Labor Day. Arizona-based J&J Equine Enterprises LLC purchased the racetrack, formerly known as Yavapai Downs, out of bankruptcy
court for $3.22 million in January 2018. Since then, the owners have spent more than $7 million to get Arizona Downs ready for the 2019 summer live racing season. “There is a lot of excitement about Arizona Downs here in the state, and among horse racing fans across the country,” said McGovern. “Year-round horse racing strengthens the industry and benefits everyone – the horse
owners, breeder, jockeys, and related professions that will now be able to stay in the state to compete. And of course there are thousands of families who will be able to enjoy live horse racing in Arizona throughout the year.” The Memorial Day weekend grand opening is a four-day celebration that offers something for everyone – music, a Family Fun Zone, food trucks, and eight live horse races throughout each day. Gates open at 9 a.m. and post time for the first race is 1 p.m. General admission is $2. Kids 10 and under are free.
“Families are searching for new experiences they can share together without draining their wallets,” said McGovern. “We’ve planned our entire summer season with families in mind, and we’re keeping it very affordable. We want parents and children alike who haven’t experienced horse racing to fall in love with the sport.” The fun continues at Arizona Downs every weekend through Labor Day. In addition to the Family Fun Zone, the racetrack will keep families entertained all summer long with themed celebrations for Fathers Day, Kids Day, July 4, Labor Day, and Backto-Day, among others.

Auburn Equestrian Repeats as National Champions
Auburn University goes undefeated in 2018-19 season captures the 2019 National Collegiate Equestrian Association collegiate championship in a repeat from 2018. By Jill J. Dunkel
That’s the best way to describe the margins of victory April 20 at the National Collegiate Equestrian Association National Championships. After four days of bracket-style competition, the championship round saw competitive rides in the team and event finals, with the reining and horsemanship titles coming down to tie-breakers, and a one-point margin of victory deciding the team competition. The morning kicked off with SEC rivals Auburn University and the University of Georgia once again going head-to-head for the team title. Georgia prevailed on the western side, 5-2, winning horsemanship, 3-1, and reining, 2-1, after Terri June Granger from Auburn and Annabeth Payne of Georgia tied for the last reining point. However, Auburn’s hunt seat team sealed the repeat win for the Tigers with a 6-2 victory and a total team score of 8-7. Auburn, which sat at the No. 1 position all year, remained undefeated for the 2018-19 season. “This is a team who I thought from the get-go deserved it. We watched them develop as a team be undefeated all the way to this point. We knew it was within our reach,” said Auburn head coach Greg Williams. “It’s truly an honor to be with them, and it’s been an amazing journey.”
After the close loss in the team competition, Georgia’s western riders had to saddle up and compete again – this time in the event finals. In horsemanship, Georgia battled with Texas Christian University to a 2-2 tie. The raw score tiebreaker gave the Bulldogs the title with 887.5 points compared to the Horned Frogs’ 881. The reining event final was even closer, with Georgia taking on Southern Methodist University. After four rides, the teams were knotted at 2-2. The edge went to the Bulldogs with 845.5 in raw score, compared to the Mustang’s 841.5. The win also gave the western team championship to Georgia. Georgia Assistant Coach Sara Parr said the day was a rollercoaster of emotion, first losing a close race with Auburn for the team title, and then refocusing to capture two event championships in the same day. “It was a long day,” she said. “I’m really proud of this team how they stayed together and kept battling, and in the end it worked out in our favor.” Complete coverage of the event is available at collegiateequestrian. com.

Ingmar De Vos Re-elected as FEI President
Ingmar De Vos was today re-elected unopposed as President of the FEI at the General Assembly in Manama (BRN), where he pledged to build on the success of his first term in office. The Belgian native received unanimous support for a second four-year term from delegates representing the FEI’s 133 National Federations.
It is the first time since 2002 that there has been an uncontested election for the FEI’s top role. The Belgian native is the 13th FEI President since the Federation was founded in 1921, and only the fourth to become an IOC Member. “I believe in our sport, in our community and in our potential”, Ingmar De Vos said in a powerful acceptance speech after an extended standing ovation from the delegates. “These are exciting times for equestrian. We are growing, our fan base is diversifying and we have seven amazing and unique disciplines to promote – the sky really is the limit! “Together – and this is the key word – together we can and we will continue to develop our sport and to attract new athletes, new fans and new sponsors. And we will do this by ensuring great sport, cutting edge formats and great products globally to showcase the unique attributes of our disciplines and our sport. “One of my biggest priorities is to keep our community together and ensure we stand united, because this is how we can continue to drive the sport to new heights. We are all on this journey together. It is not the mission of one man but of a community and I am grateful to everyone in this room for all that we have achieved and all that we will go on to achieve.” He gave a heartfelt vote of thanks to his wife Sabine and the couple’s four children for their unfailing support, before going on to thank his predecessor HRH Princess Haya al Hussein for her visionary leadership and his mentor, the late Jacky Buchmann, former President of the Belgian Equestrian Federation. Shortly after his re-election, Ingmar De Vos received a letter of congratulations from IOC President Thomas Bach. “Your re-election is an affirmation of the outstanding contribution you have made to the world of equestrian sports during your first presidential term. The IOC greatly appreciates the long standing relationship with the FEI, and we trust that we will continue this teamwork in the lead up to the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 and beyond to Paris and Los Angeles. We also look forward to continuing the open dialogue with the FEI and working closely together in the ongoing development of your sport, your Federation and of your athletes.” Under his leadership, the FEI has seen greater youth engagement and universality, continued improvements in governance within the FEI and its member Federations, and a major evolution in the Federation’s broadcast and digital media strategy. In his Presidential Programme for 2018-2022, A Roadmap for the 52

The five pillars are Serving our Community; Sport: Our Core Business; Equestrian Sport in the Olympics; Solidarity: The Engine of Development; and Horses as our Partners. Under the FEI’s constitution, a president can serve up to three fouryear terms. Ingmar De Vos was first elected in 2014 at the FEI General Assembly in Baku (AZE) after three years as FEI Secretary General at the FEI Headquarters in Lausanne (SUI). De Vos (55), who was elected as an IOC Member in September 2017, is also a member of the Association of Summer Olympic International Federations (ASOIF) governance taskforce, a member of two IOC Commissions (Legal Affairs and Digital & Technology), and is on the board of the Belgian National Olympic Committee. Earlier this month he was appointed to the Global Association of International Sports Federations (GAISF) Council and as the GAISF representative on the 12-member World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Executive Committee, replacing the late Patrick Baumann in both roles. Mr De Vos will take up the WADA post on 1 January 2019. More about Ingmar De Vos A Belgian native, Ingmar De Vos was born on 5 August 1963. He holds degrees in political science, and international and European law, and started his career as an advisor to the Belgian Senate. He joined the Belgian Equestrian Federation as managing director in 1990, and held the additional role of Secretary General from 1997 to 2011.

WHY RISK IT
CLEAN ARENAS MAKE FOR HEALTHY HORSES HOW IT WORKS
A Service to Improve Your Footing
We’ll pull into your existing arena and allow Rockyln to do her thing…Pick up rocks. With her pristine design, she is able to pick up a variety of rock sizes, as small as 3/8 going up to 6 inches deep of the surface sifting through without removing your footing. Rocklyn employs a sifting technology used to lift the existing footing from your arena on to a special/secret screen. The screen then sifts the unwanted rock from the arena, while the footing returns to the arena, and the remaining debris is deposited in the bucket. We’ll gather the rock and neatly pile it up for easy removal. She’s built of steel to ensure durability and consistency.

Extreme Mustang Race Returns to Extreme Cowboy Association World Championship
The Mustang Heritage Foundation (MHF) and the Extreme Cowboy Association (EXCA) have come together again to offer a unique mustang only division at the EXCA 2019 World Championship inGlen Rose, Texas, November 5-10, called the Extreme Mustang Race.
58
The Extreme Mustang Race will challenge mustang competitors and their horses to maneuver through a series of obstacles against the clock, demonstrating both horsemanship and speed. The Top 10 competitors will take home a purse of $10,000. Interested competitors must
send in completed entry forms and can then adopt or purchase a 3-6-year-old mustang mare or gelding from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) corrals or adoption/purchase events between April 1 and August 1, 2019. Upon successful entry, contestants will gentle and train
MAY 2019
their mustangs for approximately 100 days in preparation for competition in November for the chance to win $10,000. The Extreme Mustang Race is limited to 25 entries on a first come first served basis with an entry deadline of August 1, 2019. “The EXCA World Finals was an incredible host to the Extreme Mustang Race last year,” said Kali Sublett, MHF Executive Director. “We loved watching these once wild horses compete alongside top EXCA competitors and we are thrilled to be offering this opportunity to our mustang family again in 2019! This is an exciting opportunity for anyone who has considered adopting a wild horse and also wants something to strive for and to be a part of, that is what wehope this event offers.” Currently, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) estimates nearly 80,000 wild horses roam on BLM-managed rangelands in 10 western states, mostly in Nevada, Wyoming and California. As their populations grow, events like the Extreme Mustang Race encourage public education and adoption of these remarkable animals. “We are really excited to have the Extreme Mustang Race back again this year at the Extreme Cowboy Association World Finals,” said Craig Cameron, Hall of Fame Cowboy and World Champion Cowboy. “This is one of our best divisions to watch. Last year, Lee Hart took first place on his Mustang named Lumpy.”

USDA 2018 Report Finds 98% of Farms are Family Owned
The United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Economic Research Service (ERS) has released their 2018 report based on a sample of 21,000 farms. They found that small family farms make up almost 89% of all American farms. Midsize family farms make up 6.3% and large family farms make up 2.8%. That leaves only 2.2% of the farms in the US to be non family farms. Those small family farms
NE W DED E XPAN ! ON LO CATI
use over 50% of our farmland in this country while the non family farms only use 6.5% of the land. The different sizes of family farms is largely related to what the farmer is producing. Large family farms produce over two-thirds of our nation's dairy commodities. Midsize family farms grow over 35% of the grains and 30% of the cotton and poultry. Small family farms have a huge hold on the hay industry with over 75% being grown by them and 60% of the poultry also coming from them. This report included the income of those farmers from 2017 and cites that only 4% of our family farmers had household wealth lower than the median US income of $61,372. The total average household income of all family farms was $113,495. With such diversity in the sizes of farms and what they produce, it is easy to see how our country needs to protect all farmers to ensure they have the ability to feed their families and the world.

• Eighty-nine percent of farms are small, and these farms ac- counted for 52 percent of the land operated by farms in 2017. • Large-scale family farms accounted for the largest share of production, at 39 percent. • Family farms of various types together accounted for 98 percent of farms and 87 percent of production in 2017.
• Nonfamily farms accounted for the remaining farms (2 percent) and production (13 percent). Fifteen percent of nonfamily farms had gross cash farm income (GCFI) of $1,000,000 or more, and they accounted for 89 percent of nonfamily farms’ production. Examples of nonfamily farms include partnerships of unrelated partners, closely held nonfamily corporations, farms with a hired operator unrelated to the owners, and (relatively few) publicly held corporations.
America’s Diverse Family Farms 2018 Edition
Changes in questionnaire design between the 2016 and 2017 Agricultural Resource Management Surveys contributed to a change in the shareof farming operations classified as “retirement farms.” More principal operators reported their primary occupation as farming in 2017. This led to an increase in the number of low-sales farms— those with gross cash farm income less than $150,000— and a decrease in retirement farms. As a result of the changes in the composition of these groups, caution should be used in comparing to data from earlier years.

About the Zoetis VRH World
The Zoetis AQHA Versatility Ranch Horse World Championships are held together with the Zoetis AQHA Ranching Heritage Challenge Finals, the AQHA Level 1 Cattle Championships and the national championships for the National Ranch and Stock Horse Alliance. Ranch trail classes on three lush outdoor courses kicked off the 2018 Zoetis AQHA Versatility Ranch Horse World Championships June 13-17 at the Lazy E in Guthrie, Oklahoma. The course had a real ranch feel, where exhibitors navigated a grassy area and encountered natural obstacles.
Rocky - 480.717.7844 Joannie - 480.291.3128 rocky4saddles@gmail.com
The rest of the week only got better from there.
This record-setting show had 2,575 entries for the Zoetis VRH World, the Zoetis AQHA Ranching Heritage Challenge Finals, the AQHA Level 1 Cattle Championships and the first national championships for the National Ranch and Stock Horse Alliance. People and horses were literally cross-entered in as many classes as they were qualified for. The VRH entries alone grew 66 percent from last year. Nearly 60 entries in each of the VRH amateur, limited amateur and open ranch conformation classes – the variation of horse coat colors in those classes was a sight to see! To keep the show moving throughout the day, most days ended
Now Located at 21235 N. El Rocko Lane & Hwy 89 Paulden, AZ
with a big awards celebration in the Lazy E Cantina, where AQHA handed out ribbons and trophies, and toasted all the winners. The AQHA Cook Team rose in the wee hours of every morning and threw together breakfast. The cowboy tacos or biscuits and gravy were piping hot every morning by 6 a.m. for all exhibitors, visitors and show staff. Thanks to Brett Burke, with title sponsor Zoetis, for serving food every morning. Yes, it was hot and humid each day, but these exhibitors and their horses are used to doing their work in these – and even worse – conditions. It was heartwarming to see exhibitors and their horses standing in the shade outside the Reliance Arena, prepping themselves or their horses to go into a class and chatting with other exhibitors. Horseless kids were riding their bikes, and kids with horses were hanging out together. AQHA crowned six VRH world champions, 36 VRH class champions, seven NRSHA all-around champions, eight Level 1 youth and eight Level 1 amateur class champions, and 18 RHC champions. Three of the VRH world champions are Ranching Heritage-bred horses; three other of the VRH world champs are actual working ranch horses. We paid more than $100,000 in purse money to our VRH class champions and world champions; more than $50,000 to the Zoetis RHC Finals champions; and $8,500 in Level 1 Cattle Championships jackpot earnings.

AQHA Versatility Ranch Horse Competition Versatility Ranch Horse competition allows American Quarter Horses to demonstrate their ranching abilities in fice classes – ranch riding, ranch trail, ranch reining, ranch cow work and ranch conformation.
The Versatility Ranch Horse competition promotes the athletic ability and versatility of the American Quarter Horse as demonstrated in five classes – ranch riding, ranch trail, ranch reining, ranch cow work and ranch conformation. There are divisions for open, amateur, cowboy and youth. For complete rules and regulations, refer to the AQHA Official Handbook of Rules and Regulations.
The Classes Ranch Riding – For ranch riding classes, horses show individually, and the class can be conducted inside or outside an arena. In this class, judges are looking for relaxed, responsive horses with soft and cadenced gaits. The horse should make timely transitions in a smooth and correct manner, plus the horse should be soft in the bridle and yield to contact. Ranch Trail – Obstacles found in a ranch trail pattern are approximate to those found during the course of everyday work. Judges are looking for a well-trained, responsive and wellmannered horse that can correctly navigate and negotiate the course, and to do so in a correct and efficient manner. Rule SHW561 outlines the class, including prohibited and mandatory obstacles. Ranch Reining – Ranch reining measures the ability of the stock horse to perform basic handling maneuvers. This class can be held with or separate from the ranch cow work class; if the two are held together, they are still scored and placed as individual classes. This what the judges are looking for in ranch reining: “To rein a horse is not only to guide him but also to control his every movement. The best reined horse should be willingly guided or controlled with little or no apparent resistance and dictated to completely.” Ranch Cow Work – When it comes to the ranch cow work class, riders have the choice between ranch cow work or limited ranch cow work for youth and amateur exhibitors, where riders are allotted one minute and thirty seconds to complete the work. There are four parts to the limited ranch cow work: boxing the cow; setting up the cow and driving it down the fence to the opposite end of the arena; boxing it at the opposite end of the arena; and drive the cow back down the fence past the middle marker. For ranch cow work, there are three parts to the class: boxing, fence work and roping or circling. The horse and rider must accomplish all three parts in three minutes. 66
Ranch Conformation – To be eligible to compete in the ranch conformation class, the horse must be shown in at least one class one of the other categories the day of the show. Judges are looking for balanced, structurally correct horses with adequate muscling. You’ll need to show your horse in a good working halter – rope, braided, nylon or plain leather – exhibit your horse at a walk and trot, then line up for inspection by the judge.
The Divisions Open – Anyone with a current AQHA or AQHYA membership is eligible to show an American Quarter Horse in open competition. Open competition is usually for the most experienced exhibitors, trainers and professional horsemen but many amateur and youth members can be tough competitors as well. Open division classes may be offered for junior and senior horses. Amateur – American Quarter Horse owners who do not join the professional ranks may enjoy a full spectrum of competition in the amateur division. Youth – Exhibitors 18 years of age or younger (age as of January 1) may show in this division. Cowboy – The cowboy division is for working ranch cowboys. The rider of the horse must either be an owner, family member or full time employee of the ranch that owns the horse. Employees must have been employed for a minimum of 90 days prior to competing in the ranch horse competition. The rider must have less than $5,000 per association lifetime earnings in any of the following: NRHA, NCHA, NRHA, ACHA, RHAA, ASHA or SHOT or less than 25 AQHA or American Paint Horse Association open points in reining, working cow horse or Versatility Ranch Horse within the previous 10 years. No exhibitor can have earned more than $5,000 in any individual association.
Points, Awards and Zoetis VRH World Qualifying
Points earned in individual classes count toward qualifying for the Zoetis AQHA Versatility Ranch Horse World Championships. For AQHA year-end high-point awards, all-around versatility ranch horse titles are tracked. (In other words, highpoints will not be awarded on the class-by-class basis). All-around versatility ranch horse titles are awarded at every VRH show to the high-placing horse-and-rider team in the open, cowboy, amateur and youth divisions. To be eligible, the duo must enter and show in a minimum of three categories – at least one cattle class (ranch cow work), conformation, plus at least one of the additional classes (ranch riding, ranch trail or ranch reining). See Rule SHW555 for more details.

Rebuilding Topline: “Pre-Work” Prior to Putting Your Horse Back in Work
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. If your horse has been out of work for a few months this might just be the perfect time to do a little prep work. Before you hop back in the saddle, use the weeks prior to check if your horse’s diet is balanced and providing the nutrients to have their body
ready to support, recover and rebuild when you start exercising. A common misconception about topline is that it can be improved through exercise alone. Lack of exercise – or the wrong type of exercise ‑ is often blamed for a poor topline. While exercise alters existing muscles, building new muscles is

a different story. The nutritional building blocks of muscle (essential amino acids) must be present in sufficient quantities and balanced with adequate calories to rebuild or augment muscle tissue. In fact, if a horse is worked hard but his diet lacks sufficient amino acids, existing muscle mass can shrink. This can be a slippery slope in some situations, and as muscle atrophy sets in, the belief is that the horse needs to work even harder when in fact the fuel is not present (in the form of nutrition) to help support and repair tissue that is broken down with exercise. Just like human athletes, athletic equine partners need more essential amino acids than maintenance horses to maximize the effects of training and allow the horse to look and feel its best. Certain exercises are thought to improve topline include hill work, backing exercises, and those that encourage the horse to collect and arc the body. These exercises can help condition muscles, but only if the diet is supporting the muscles through proper nutrition. Ensure the nutritional building blocks of muscle are available in your horse’s diet before you head back to work so their system will have the nutrients available to build the muscle and support their body. One suggestion to help with this issue is to combine a feed that contains guaranteed levels of the right amino acids (fed at the right amounts per the feed tag) with a healthy exercise program for best topline results. Work with your veterinarian and equine nutritionist to ensure you are on the right track.

Western Dressage Association of America News Dear Members, Spring cleaning, purging, and organizing helps us keep our lives in order. The same is true for WDAA. We have been working internally to upgrade and streamline our processes so WDAA can achieve the goal of providing members with the best service possible.
First - under upgrading, I am excited to announce that Diana “Dini” Swanson has been named as the new Executive Director for WDAA. Dini has served in a contract role as our Executive Secretary for three years. WDAA and Dini have grown together over that time and both are ready for the next step. So, on May 1, Dini will become WDAA’s first non-contract, full-time employee. She will continue to perform most of her previous duties, but will also be overseeing many of the projects our volunteer board members headed up in the past. One of Dini’s first new projects involves working to upload an all-inone membership management software application. WDAA is working with a software company to onboard all components of a new system. We hope this will streamline some of our internal processes so WDAA customer service can be even more efficient. The new system includes a web portal for members where we will post videos and educational material. Onboarding takes several months so I don’t have a good time estimate yet for when the portal will open. You can be sure we will notify you with great fanfare when it is opened. By now you have had the chance to look over the newly released Intro Level Freestyle requirements. Developing Intro Freestyle was a member request, and the WDAA team worked hard to bring it to fruition quickly so riders could have time to plan and practice performances well before the WDAA World Championship Show. I hope this makes competing in freestyle attainable for everyone. Freestyle is a fun way to celebrate your achievements with your horse in an individual, creative way. Chris Rushton is updating our corporate sponsorship plan. He will post it on the WDAA website soon. Kathy Newcomb is working with show managers across the country, and they have almost doubled the number of WDAA recognized shows scheduled from 2018 to 2019. Please, head out and support the shows in your area if you want them to continue. Show managers will give Western Dressage a chance, but you have to support it to keep it as your favorite shows. There has never been a better time to sign up for the WDAA Horse Lifetime Points and Awards Program! We have great momentum and our future looks very bright! Thanks to you, WDAA members, who honor the horse and the journey. By bringing your horses and yourselves out to shows, you give us more power to get more support for programs we want to provide to you. You make our jobs at WDAA easier, even the Spring cleaning. Cindy Butler, Your President Western Dressage Association Of America New This Year At the 2019 WDAA Western Dressage World Championship Show 1. The new Silver Spur Award will be awarded to the highest scoring horse/rider team that equals 75 years or more in age combined. This very special new award will be presented Sunday night after the show at the Farewell Celebration and Awards Ceremony. 2. Intro freestyle has been added to the schedule! 3.

New CFO Announced for NCHA Dear NCHA Members, The National Cutting Horse Association is excited to announce the hiring of Lance Bryson as the association’s Chief Financial Officer, beginning May 20th, 2019. Lance comes to NCHA with over ten years of Finance and Accounting experience, with a primary focus of improving actuals and forecasting financial reporting for Fortune 500 organizations.
Having spent the past five years working for Deloitte Consulting LLP, Lance has worked to optimize finance organizations through analyzing current operations, advising on future-state, strategic objectives, implementing process and technology solutions, and training global workforces. “I have been fortunate to consult for some of the largest organizations in the world,” Lance said. “Some are listed as
Fortune 3, Fortune 50 and Fortune 400. That work has exposed me to some of the most unique business models in the world and provided great insight into the complexities of multi-national operations. I’ve been able to travel the world through that work and see first-hand how changes to an organization are to be deployed.”
In addition, Lance owns Bryson Capital LLC, which is dedicated to the investment and innovation of
small business ventures. He oversees business development, operations and financial performance concerns for the enterprises. Originally from Northwestern Illinois, Lance has extensive experience in the horse and agriculture industry, having grown up showing American Quarter Horses. “My Grandparents showed horses in the 1970’s in Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa, and eventually left horses to start a feeder cattle business,” Lance said. “My dad is an auctioneer and cattle farmer still to this day. My other grandparents owned livestock, and then turned their focus to crop farming later in life, so it’s safe to say I have a fairly good understanding of farming and ranch inner-workings.” Lance plans to begin his role with NCHA by evaluating the current state and formulating plans to improve operational and financial efficiency. “My predecessors have done a great job of ensuring the Association has the aptitude for technologies that most modern-day finance organizations require,” Lance said. “Based upon my preliminary discussions with Kirk and the Finance Committee, I believe there are improvements to be capitalized on within those technologies and I plan to make that a priority. As well, it is important for organizations to have standardized financial reporting cycles so that finances can be analyzed and support knowledge-based decisions. I intend to immediately implement standardized financial close cycles, so the Association has up-to-date financial reporting. I am very excited to begin this new chapter with NCHA. The consulting lifestyle required a lot of travel, which can be taxing. I am looking forward to planting roots in Fort Worth and bringing two of my favorite things together – horses and finance.” Lance has a Bachelor of Science degree in Accountancy from Northern Illinois University. He lives in Aubrey, Texas, with his partner, Ryan Painter, who trains and shows AllAround and Over-fence horses on the American Quarter Horse Association and National Snaffle Bit Association circuits. Once again, please join me in welcoming our new Chief Financial Officer, Lance Bryson. Sincerely, K. Slaughter Signature

New Recreational Opportunities at Vulture Mountain Recreation Area near Wickenburg
WASHINGTON – U.S. Acting Secretary of the Interior David Bernhardt today announced the signing of a lease agreement between the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors allowing the Maricopa Parks and Recreation Department to expand recreational opportunities on 1,046 acres of BLM-managed lands at the Vulture Mountain Recreation Area

near Wickenburg, Arizona. The lease authorizes Maricopa Parks to develop and operate various recreational facilities, including picnic and campground areas, a nature playground, trailheads and trails, a nature center, an amphitheater, and several other amenities that will significantly improve the recreation experience for local communities and visitors. "This project is an excellent
example of Interior and the BLM working with state and local partners to increase access, expand recreational opportunities, and manage public lands for multiple uses while taking into account the long-term needs of future generations," said Acting Secretary Bernhardt. "The lease agreement signed today allows for the development and operation of various recreational facilities that will significantly enhance recreation
MAY 2019
opportunities for visitors, support local businesses, and create local jobs, all benefiting local communities." “Public lands should be accessible and enjoyed by those who live and work closest to the land,” said Senator Martha McSally. “This agreement will strengthen our economy by creating good-paying jobs and will provide more access to our beautiful public spaces for all Arizonans to enjoy.” “This is not the first park we’ve managed with the BLM under an R&PP lease,” said R.J. Cardin, Maricopa County Parks and Recreation Department Director. “They are great partners, and our teams have been planning for this day together since 2010. Given the feedback we’ve received from the public throughout the planning process, I am confident that those who recreate in the Vulture Mountains Recreation Area will be pleased with the recreational amenities we’ll be rolling out over the next several years.” The Recreation & Public Purposes Act of 1926 (R&PP) (as amended) allows for state and local governments to apply for the leasing of public lands for recreational and other public purposes, such as the construction and maintenance of facilities like schools, fire stations, and parks. “The R&PP Act is a tool that state and local governments can use to apply for the leasing of public lands for purposes that benefit their local communities,” said BLM Phoenix District Manager Leon Thomas. “This R&PP lease is an example of how partners and the community have come together to create a vision for facilities that will enhance the recreation experience on public lands.

Graves Earns World Cup Silver for Third Time at the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final in Gothenburg really special.”
All three U.S. combinations earn spots in the top seven Gothenburg, Sweden – In the dramatic conclusion of the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final, Laura Graves and her loyal mount Verdades piaffed their way to silver in front of an enthusiastic Swedish crowd of more than 11,500. Showing the strength of the American dressage program, all three U.S. combinations broke the top seven with scores over 80%.
With a final score of 87.179%, Graves (Geneva, Fla.) and her and Curt Maes’s 17-year-old Dutch Warmblood gelding gave now three-time World Cup champion Isabel Werth (Germany) and Weihegold OLD a run for their money. With 10 combinations scoring over 80%, it was a tight race to the finish and Graves rode 14th in the order.
Laura Graves and Verdades
“I could not be more thrilled with my performance,” continued Graves. “I had a bit of an early draw, and I knew I had to give it everything. We made a couple of adjustments to our program and that really worked in our favor. The music, thanks to Terry Gallo, was spot on. I am so glad we decided to do that; we just love Sweden.”
Kasey Perry-Glass (Wellington, Fla.) and Goerklintgaards Dublet, Diane Perry’s 16-year-old Danish Warmblood gelding, were the final U.S. combination in the ring. Their dynamic freestyle was a crowd favorite, earning them a staccato of applause as they made their final steps and salute to the judges. Their highly technical and wellexecuted performance earned them a score of 84.975% and fifth place.

“I was thrilled. [Verdades] was so rideable, and I was just really thrilled with his focus and his energy today,” said Graves. “Like Isabel [Werth] said, the crowd was amazing. They all have this ticker of a live score, and as riders you are going ‘yeah, this feels pretty good.’ You kind of hope that the judges are agreeing with [the crowd]. You hear the crowd clapping along and you think ‘okay, well at least everyone is enjoying it as much as I am,’ and that’s
“[Goerklintgaards Dublet] was really good and very honest in everything that he did today. I am just really proud of him,” said Perry-Glass. “It has been an amazing week. All of us [U.S.] girls did such a great job and we represented the U.S. really well. It was such a pleasure to be here. All the fans were amazing and really welcoming.” Adrienne Lyle and Salvino (Photo by Shannon Brinkman Photo) Adrienne Lyle (Wellington, Fla.) and Salvino were first down centerline for the U.S. She and Betsy Juliano LLC’s beautiful and dark 12-year-old Hanoverian stallion laid it all on the line for a knowledgeable and engaged audience. Scoring a personal freestyle best of 81.832%, the combination would finish in seventh place in their first World Cup Final appearance, Salvino’s first indoor event, and in only their third performance of this particular freestyle test. “I had a wonderful time. [Scandinavium Arena] is by far the most fun venue I have ever ridden in. The crowd is awesome,” said Lyle. “I came in right after Patrik Kittel, hometown hero, and the crowd erupted and [Salvino] didn’t even put a foot out of place. I think he is enjoying the indoor arena too. It was a really fun crowd to ride to. They were clapping at the end and really getting into the performances today … I am super, super thrilled with him. This is just the start for this horse.”

Truck Talk with Nate Brekken
STRICTLY DIESEL : May Tip Of The Month Nate has been busy, but enjoy this article he did from a couple years ago. It's an oldie but a goody! Seeing a lot of older vehicles in the shop as of late. These trucks sure bring back the memories. Although they lack the power from mechanical fuel systems (no computers) they are certainly reliable as all get out. Since 1993 diesel fuel has gone under some significant changes, the most aggressive being in 2006 when this fuel needed to have a majority of the sulfur removed - Sulfur being a byproduct of diesel fuel, provided the lubrication for our pumps and injectors in the fuel system. ULSD ultra low sulfur diesel fuel spawned a new era in diesel fuel
additives. All of the manufacturers of these diesel fuel additives seems to "have the cure", but the one thing they all seem to have in common is a lubricity additive. If your truck is pre 2007 your

truck NEEDS a fuel additive. If your truck is pre 1998 your truck REALLY NEEDS a fuel additive. Nate Brekken Manual injection pump trucks were designed with sulfur in mind. Not having that sulfur in the ULSD that we use today can be very detrimental for your pump, injectors and truck in general. Manual injection pumps do not get better with age, without a lubricity additive the tight tolerances in the injection pump may be suffering, causing hard starts, lack of power, excessive smoke, poor fuel economy and the list goes on and on. Although and expensive proposition you may want to think about a freshening up of your fuel system, whether it is an overhaul of the pump, replacement or rebuild of injectors, even just having the timing set to verify proper operation, this may put some zip back in your trucks step. Be sure to protect the investment though with a good fuel additive. Strictly Diesel has a very good variety of diesel fuel additives. We try to run them ourselves to see the benefits (or not) before they go on our shelves. Before you dump that additive in your tank, verify it is not good for both gas and diesel. Additives like this may contain alcohol, which will damage fuel injection systems. Don't forget to use a fuel additive on your new diesel truck as well. With injection pressures increasing on a yearly basis, the more lubrication you can give your fuel system, the longer you will go without expensive repairs. Give Strictly Diesel a call to let us help you with your fuel additive questions. We have the right additive for you and your diesel truck. And we can't wait for you to see the results.

Canadian equestrian champion Ian Millar announces retirement
Ian Millar, from Perth, Ont., a Canadian Equestrian Team athlete in show jumping, speaks to reporters at Spruce Meadows in Calgary, Alta., Tuesday, June 2, 2015. PERTH, Ont. — Canadian equestrian Ian Millar has retired from international show jumping competition, ending an illustrious
career that included multiple Pan American Games medals and an Olympic silver medal in 2008. Born in Halifax on Jan. 6, 1947, Millar joined the Canadian equestrian team in 1971. He rose to fame in a partnership with Big Ben, as they became the first-ever horse and rider combination to win back-to-back World Cup finals in 1988 and 1989. A bronze statue of Millar
riding Big Ben was erected in his hometown of Perth, Ont., in 2005. He made his Olympic debut in Munich in 1972, and became the first athlete to compete at 10 Olympics at the 2012 London Games. Millar helped Canada win silver in the team event at the 2008 Beijing Games. Millar also captured 10 Pan American medals, including four gold. The latest was a gold medal in the team jumping event at the 2015 Toronto Pan Am Games at the age of 68. “Representing Canada many times over my career has been my greatest honour,” Millar said in the release. “Each time I wore the red team jacket was very special to me, and the fact that I was able to share this experience with so many great riders is a testament to the quality of horsemen and horsewomen here in our country.” In addition to his international career, Millar has won over 150 grand prix competitions and is a 12-time Canadian show jumping champion.

USDA Releases Report on Rural Broadband and Benefits of Next Generation Precision Agriculture WASHINGTON, April 30, 2019 – Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue today unveiled a groundbreaking report, A Case for Rural Broadband: Insights on Rural Broadband Infrastructure and Next Generation Precision Agriculture Technologies
THIS IS HORSE COUNTRY AT ITS BEST Wild Horse Country Located in southern Colorado, in the
Sangre de Christo mountain range. You will experience beautiful scenic views as you climb from the floor of the San Luis Valley to the top of the mesa. As you leave the small community of San Luis you will enter into a section of the west that is still “open range” (no fences) where it is common to find bands of wild horses, sometimes grazing along the highway that leads to Taos, New Mexico. Through out the area horses are found where ever they choose to wander. Additional wildlife; deer, elk, and bear abound. With the privacy afforded by few neighbors and large parcels, this is truly a great place to live free, in the western way.

The report finds that deployment of both broadband e-Connectivity and Next Generation Precision Agriculture Technology on farms and ranches throughout the U.S. could result in at least $47 billion in national economic benefits every year. “Broadband and Next Generation Precision Agriculture are critical components for creating vital access to world-class resources, tools and opportunity for America’s farmers, ranchers, foresters and producers,” Secretary Perdue said. “Under the leadership of President Trump, USDA is committed to doing our part to clear the way for nationwide broadband connectivity that will allow the next generation of precision agriculture technologies to thrive and expand.” The report also finds that if broadband infrastructure and digital technologies at scale were available at a level that meets estimated producer demand, the U.S. economy could realize benefits equivalent to nearly 18 percent of total agriculture production. Of that 18 percent, more than one-third is dependent on broadband e-Connectivity, equivalent to at least $18 billion in annual economic benefits that only high-speed, reliable internet can provide.

Jacs In Doubletrouble Clinches Six PAC ChampionAward
Jacs In Doubletrouble had a banner year in 2018 as part of APHA’s Paint Alternative Competition program. The 2008 palomino tobiano gelding earned championship honors in six PAC categories—Cutting, Equitation, Reining, Showmanship, Western Riding and Working Cow Horse—and became only the second horse in APHA history to earn the Six PAC Champion
award. The Six PAC Champion title is awarded to a horse that wins at least six PAC category championship titles in a single year. It was last awarded in 2008. Bought sight unseen from a video, Carly Reyna was full of hope when her new partner stepped off the trailer after

journeying 1,700 miles from Texas to New York. After years of showing all-around horses, Carly had big plans to try her local American Ranch Horse Association shows; in addition to classes like showmanship and horsemanship that she knew and loved, the ARHA shows also provided the opportunity to try a few completely new events: cattle classes and reining. “I went on the hunt for a ‘unicorn’ that would hold his own in both ‘dry’ and cattle classes—and, one patient enough to do the job with a green rider,” the equestrienne from Ravena, New York, said. “A trusted friend and professional horseman, Jon Carpenter, found JacJac for me in Texas. Time was of the essence, so I wired the money and bought the horse without so much as a video. It turned out to be one the best decisions of my life.” With a background in reining and ranch horse events—the 2008 palomino tobiano gelding by Dolls Union Jac (QH) and out of Shys Double Trouble was APHA’s 2017 world champion in Novice Youth Reining and has Registers of Merit in reining, trail and working ranch horse—JacJac’s natural talent, training and work ethic proved to be just what Carly to jump into the ranch horse versatility arena. “A 10-year-old horse that has been shown most of his life is usually pen smart—they know the drill, so adding variety was key to keeping his mind fresh. We did a lot of trail riding, hacking through fields and chasing cows,” Carly said. “He already changed leads, stopped big and could turn a +1, so I just introduced new things. We started pole work and added trail. The horsemanship was an easy addition because he was so broke.
