LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
I
t’s Horse Fair time again. Trade shows and expos are going on everywhere to give us horse people a “leg-up” into show season. I personally didn’t need the boost. I was ready to go when all of the warm weather made it’s way to my house for an unusually warm March. For those of you who are going to be making the trip to the trade show(s) - make sure to look us up at the Hoosier Horse Fair. We will be there again with the QHRAI in the West Pavilion on the North side of the Demonstration Arena.
This past month has been a month of crazy weather. We have been blessed with warm temperatures and early blooms, but in early March the weather took a terrible toll on our neighbors in southern Indiana and Kentucky. Several families lost everything, including the McCardle family of Crittenden, Kentucky. Their lives were spared, but they lost all of their horses but one lone weanling named Teddy. You can read a little more about how to make a donation to help this family in our News section. I am sure prayers are appreciated for all of those who were affected by the terrible tornadoes that swept through that part of our country. As for us, here at the farm, we are getting fewer and fewer hours of sleep with the awaited arrival of baby foals. I don’t know who is anticipating them more, me or the kids. I am sure the mares are ready for some relief , I know I’m ready for some sleep. This reminds me, start sending us those pictures of your foals! We’d love to see them. POST them to our FACEBOOK page at The Fast Horse Resource! This is a great time of year to take a trail ride (without bugs), go mushroom hunting, and even enjoy a picnic - all with the help of your trusty steed. We don’t take the time to enjoy our horses in that way as much as we should. My daughter and I went out for a quick trail ride the other day and it was wonderful. I had forgotten how peaceful being on horseback Cover photos provided courtesy of: in the woods can be. I suggest you try it at least once this year. Until next month.........Enjoy the peace and quiet of nature with your horse, and while you’re doing so, don’t forget to count your blessings on horseback! God Bless and Ride Safe, Christa Conway

A Little “Barrel Talk” Here’s a portion of a Hot topic on Barrel Horse World’s Barrel Talk.....Enjoy!
Understanding bits...purpose of a nose band. Just Smoke and Me Posted 2011-04-01 11:32 AM Subject: Understanding bits...purpose of a nose band. “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” Location: Montana I’ll admit, I don’t understand why certain bits work and how. I know what bits work for me and my hands, but I don’t know the mechanics of it. I used to run my high school horse in a combination bit. It was just a shanked snaffle with a noseband. It worked GREAT for him as well as most any other horse I rode. I however, did not own that bit, it was a friend of mines and when I sold my horse, I gave her back the bit. Now I’m searching for a bit similar and am trying to figure out what is the great purpose of the noseband. What horses does it work for, what makes you decide to put a combo bit on a horse verses the same thing without the noseband? I’d love to understand the mechanics of it. Any thoughts? Haidalittle Expert Posts: 4467 Location: West River - SoDak I might be the worst person at explaining these kinds of things, but I have a very mechanical way of thinking, so tend to understand this kind of stuff because I always want to know the action that causes the reaction... Anyway, maybe the easiest way for me to explain this would be to describe the one horse that I run in a combination bit... I found that in a ring snaffle, I didn’t have quite enough control. He would work decent, but for example in the alley, he would pull on me and push me around, and I do not like that. So I upped it to a junior cowhorse, and he didn’t pull on me, but he was not near as smooth to follow my hand in a turn. He was kind of jerky and stalled on the back side of barrels because he wanted to “give” to my hand so much around the barrels with the shanked bit. So.. that’s when I went to an O ring combination bit with a rope nose. I had the control I wanted, but it didn’t have the shank that caused him to flex at the poll around the barrel, and he could follow my hand again nice and smooth. Does that help at all? Or did I confuse you further... geronabean Queen Bean of Ponyland Posts: 23162 Location: Florida I JUST did this... for the most part I run my mare in a mullen mouth pelham because she is strange about her mouth and other broken bits... but she was getting her head up just a smidge coming off #1... I really really like her with a rope nose hackamore to ride in, she flexes better with a rope nose.. but she tends to get just a little stiff in her turns with just the hack or a shanked sidepull...
Page 4
So as much as I hate a combo bit I did put one on her, rope nose/ twisted snaffle. I got the response from the nose pc I was wanting and with creative adjustment I get just a little bit pressure... enough to not make her mad.... but keep her from getting that little stiffness that drives me crazy. and to think I almost gave that bit away a while back during my NO COMBO BITS EVER period.... lol... glad I saved it. bbbbr Posts: 854 Location: New Mexico I remember the old California reined cowhorse trainers talking about “nose” versus “mouth.” They always said some had more feel on their nose than in their mouth and the reverse was true as well. Some had a lot of feel both places. They would point out physical reasons for all of this...bar width, mouth depth, nose conformation, etc... All of that dictated what they were shown in and ultimately what type of bit they were eventually transitioned to...which could take years. I guess my point is maybe the horses that perform well in combo bits feel more secure, comfortable, whatever as a result of where they have the most feel. I’ve always wondered how much the physics of the rider’s build (arm, torso, and leg length among others) affect bit choices as well. And much to my husband’s dismay, I never sell a bit ‘cause I might have one horse it works on someday! carhartthoney4x4 Valley Girl Posts: 6379 Location: Willamette Valley, OR I find that on a softer mouthed horse, but maybe ones that needs some whoa a noseband works really well, you aren’t just pulling on the mouth, you are applying the pressure in the mouth and the nose...I think on a lot it encourages them to bring their head down more instead of wanting to fight the bit...stiffens them up, but not as much as with just a hack...I have a nice sharon camarillo that hangs around, I really like the bike chain nose (with rubber around it) it is the only noseband that didn’t rub my mare’s hair off her nose and make her sore casualdust07 You get what you give Posts: 6680 Location: Texas nosebands tend to stiffen them up more. So if you have a loose butt slinger, sometimes putting a combination bit on will help stiffen them and get them back in line. That was one of the transition bits my trainer had one of mine in before she got her down to just running in a simplicity. they also tend to give a little more control. I like them, my favorite is an O ring combination bit with a 3 pc twisted wire mouth :) the wasson short shank combination bit works great with my little sister’s horses. on the same horse, it would be too much bit for me. her little spaghetti arms needs more. but it’s pretty handy
trashcanchaser Veteran Posts: 165 Location: Portland, TN i really like my combo bits and i have 2 of the same o ring combo bit with copper and lifesaver mouth peice....the 2 horses i use them on are not free runners, they are more push style horses....if i actually thought about it i would think a combo bit would work better on a free runner but they are working very well on my 2 pushers....i think it gives me good control of the face when needed and really helps when you just want to guide your horse around the barrels... trailridngal I am a Coffee Addict Posts: 1571 Location: Kansas bump this up.. interesting info on combo bits. SKM Saint Stacey There are 7 areas on a horse that a bit can effect. They are the tongue, roof of mouth, corners of mouth (lips), bars, curb, poll and nose. Each horse is more comfortable with different areas. Some bits have a nonfunctioning noseband. The noseband if fixed so it really doesn’t act on the nose. Most of your older Lynn Mckenzie’s are nonfunctioning. On a combo with a functioning noseband, they tend to work on 6 of the 7 areas. The one area they really don’t work on is the roof of the mouth. A noseband basically just pulls the nose in and down. When you add a bit to it, it doesn’t pull as much as just a noseband. In other words, you have a slight amount of nose instead of a lot of nose. When you use just a noseband, it works on the nose and the curb. You use a combo if your horse likes a bit that also works slightly on the mouth. The shanks on all bits are what determines the amount of pressure you can apply. The longer the shanks, the more pressure. suzee2qtee Posted 2012-03-14 8:48 AM Regular Posts: 110 Go on Youtube and search Dale Myler He explains bits really well He has 4 different videos and gets into several differnt types of bits... It may be the second one that has the noseband explanation. I’m not saying his are the only bits but what an explanation...

Horseshoe H NT We have a surprise from our March issue! If you looked for the horse shoe, you already know what the surprise is......there was no horseshoe! (Ahhhhh! Sorry to those die hards out there!) Somehow our horseshoe got shuffled under a picture and lost in the editing process. (Again - sorry for the mix up!) To make it up to you we are hiding our horseshoe TWICE this month. That means we will have TWO WINNERS this month. Find this well hidden horseshoe (twice) for a chance at a FREE “Horsey-T,” “Horsey-Hat” or a year’s subscription. Call or email when you find one and we’ll mention your name in our next issue and send you a prize if you are the first to contact us! “Happy horseshoe hunting!”
(Find the horseshoe to the left somewhere in this issue and email or call us with it’s location! thehorseresource@msn.com)

News WORLD CHAMPION COLD CASH 123 EDGES RIVAL LLANO TELLER IN LEO STAKES, ACHIEVES MILLIONAIRE STATUS
The win was the 10th from 15 career starts for Cold Cash 123, a son of Oak Tree Special from the Takin On The Cash mare Hot Cash 123. The winner’s check from the Leo of $60,000 gives Cold Cash 123 career earnings of $1,039,741. The Leo Stakes was also his first win in three attempts at Remington Park where he had never had an on-the-board finish.

This was the first win in the Leo Stakes for all of the connections of Cold Cash 123. The Leo Stakes, named in honor of one of the foundation stallions in the sport and an AQHA Hall of Fame member, was supported by a pair of stakes events on the Remington Park undercard.
havre de grace rules new orleans ladies
Press Release - February 20, 2012 - OKLAHOMA CITY – 2011 American Quarter Horse Association World Champion Cold Cash 123 made his 2012 debut a winning one, becoming the sport’s newest millionaire in the process. The 4-year-old won the Grade 1, $100,900 Leo Stakes Saturday night at Remington Park in his typical fashion, overcoming a less than perfect start to fly late to victory.
Owned and bred in Michigan by Carolyn & Walter Bay’s T. Bill Stables of Clare, Mich., Cold Cash 123 added the Leo Stakes to his current winning streak of four straight races, dating back October 2011. Cold Cash 123 broke outward at the start, continuing his career habit of poor beginnings. However, as he normally does, the gelding found his stride and began to roll late. The big finish was needed as Llano Teller used a superb start to rocket to the lead but he could not hold off his rival at the end of the 400 yards. “This horse tends to get a little mad at the gate,” jockey Roy Baldillez noted. “When we had to back them out and then reload, he didn’t get away good but he’s going to get going. I just hold him together and he’ll do the rest.” Baldillez referred to an issue with opponent Streakin Down, the fifth-place finisher, who popped through his stall doors and was briefly loose during the initial gate-loading for the Leo Stakes. The rest of the field was subsequently backed out of the gate until Streakin Down could return to join the competition. Trainer Dwayne “Sleepy” Gilbreath was pleased with the effort of Cold Cash 123 despite his starting habits. “He just gives it his all. He might not get away very good, that’s his thing, but he’s going to give his all during the race.” Cold Cash 123 won the Leo Stakes by a neck over Llano Teller. The first major stakes race for older horses on the Remington Park stakes schedule served as the fourth race the pair have squared off since July 2011. Cold Cash 123 holds a three wins to one advantage in the competition, winning the $900,000 Rainbow Derby in July 2011 at Ruidoso Downs, N.M. and the $373,000 Texas Classic Derby in November 2011 at Lone Star Park in Grand Prairie, Texas in addition to the Leo. Llano Teller’s one score versus Cold Cash 123 in the timeframe came in the $1.3 million All American Derby in September 2011 at Ruidoso Downs. Away as the 3-5 wagering favorite, Cold Cash 123 paid $3.40 to win, $2.20 to place and $2.20 to show. Llano Teller returned $3.20 to place and $3 to show. T Gold J was a half-length behind the top pair in third and paid $3.80 to show.

By Graham Ross, Staff Writer Fairgrounds Race Course NEW ORLEANS (Saturday, March 17, 2012) - Reigning Horse of the Year Havre de Grace treated Fair Grounds guests to a shamrockflavored shower of power Saturday, giving those on hand and racing fans all over the world a St. Patrick’s Day to remember with a facile 4 1/2-length victory as she made her 2012 debut in the third running of the $150,000 New Orleans Ladies. Allowed to settle comfortably well off the pace in the run down the backstretch, the brilliant bay mare moved up to challenge the leaders approaching the stretch, took command before the furlong grounds and drew off with intermittent urging while touring the distance in 1:42.79 posting the fastest 1 1/16-mile time at Fair Grounds since 2007. “I had a pretty good trip,” said defending Eclipse Award-winning jockey Ramon Dominguez as he rushed to catch a plane back to South Florida. “I tapped her a few times to keep her mind on her business but after that she was just on cruise control.” Was he able to hear the cheers of the crowd well before Havre de Grace even hit the wire? “Yes I did,” the Venezuelan-born rider said. “That’s what racing is all about, bringing the fans out here to see a horse like that.” Havre de Grace returned the anticipated mutuels of $2.10, $2.10 and $2.10 and increased her career earnings to $2,586,175 with her ninth lifetime win in 16 career starts. “Apparently she was pretty ready,” said trainer Larry Jones. “We felt like she was better prepared this year than last year (coming off a layoff) and she ran big last year.” William and Graydon Patterson’s Juanita pressed the pace, was no match for the winner when challenged but was easily second best, paying $2.60 and $2.10 while finishing 6 1 /2 lengths to the good of Paul and Andrena Van Doren’s Sterling Madame, who made the pace with splits of 23.68 and 47.50 before tiring and returning $2.20 to show. With stablemate Joyful Victory’s loss in Oaklan Park’s Azeri Stakes shortly before the New Orleans Ladies, it now seems likely Havre de Grace will be pointed to the Grade I Apple Blossom. “Joyful Victory ran third up there in the Azeri so it looks like we’re going to have dig a little deeper in the well if we’re going to go to the Apple Blossom,” Jones said. “It looks like we may have to go with the first string, but we’ll see.” Owner Rick Porter of Fox Hill Farms said that regardless of the race, they are aiming as high as possible with Havre de Grace this year.
News “I would like to win as many big Grade I races as possible,” Porter said of Havre de Grace’s 5-year-old campaign. “We’ll pick our spots, we’ll watch what the racing secretaries are going to do to her. I feel comfortable she can run against the boys anytime we need to. I’d just like to get her through the year healthy more than anything and running the way she did today we’ll win plenty of races. And best of all would be to be back here next year as a 6-year-old.”

Mel Daniels Elected to Hall of Fame
According to the Indianapolis Star, Mel Daniels will be the first representative of the ABA Pacers in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. He was elected directly into the Hall last month. There will be an induction ceremony on September 7th to make it official. Daniels was a standout player for the ABA Pacers and has three championship rings from the 1970s to prove it. Daniels was also a two-time ABA Most Valuable Player and he finished as the league’s all-time leading rebounder (9,494) and fourth-leading scorer (11,731). “I never thought I would be selected as a Hall of Famer,” Daniels said. “I just played basketball because I enjoyed it. This honor is truly a special feeling, a special moment for me.” Daniels is known by the world as a professional (and now Hall of Fame) basketball player. Those of us from Indiana have most likely seen his jersey hanging from the rafters of Bankers Life Fieldhouse (formerly Conseco.) His number “34” has been retired. But, what most of his fans don’t realize is that Mel is also a horseman. I have known Mel as long as I can remember and my memories all involve him cheering on fellow riders (usually the kids) as they competed on their horses. He has always been a competitor and supporter of barrel racing activities in Indiana (a long time supporter of the Indiana Barrel Racing Futurity) and continues to do so today. The Horse Resource staff wanted to take this opportunity to congratulate Mr. Mel Daniels on such an honor as this. Congratulations, Mel. We’re all proud to call you a friend.

News La Jollas Gold Moving to Brazil
We’ve all read about all of the great stallions leaving the United States for the Southern Hemisphere. In May another great stallion will be added to the ever growing list. La Jollas Gold will be headed to quarantine to be prepared for his turn to fly south for the Southern Hemisphere breeding season, his new home and his new owner Victor Amaury of São Paulo Brazil, the sale of which was brokered through Luis Alvarez of Apple Valley, California.
La Jollas Gold was purchased in 2002 as a 3 year old by Darrel Henry as a package deal with his mother Pockatus Gold SI-98 Multiple Stakes winning daughter of Rocket Wrangler. From his first foal crop he sired Pro Rodeo/1D & Barrel Futurity Champion A Bit Of Gold Dust ($100,000+) and Stakes Placed winner Pappy La Jolla SI-96 just to name a few. He went on to produce many more including AAA race winners and Barrel Futurity winners such as 5-time winner Streakin Past Ya SI-94, 2-time winner High La Jollas SI-99, BFA World Futurity Amateur Champion Miss Gold Promise and 2-Time Reserve Barrel Champion Slys Gold, etc.

Donald Lee “Goober” Love
It isn’t often you can say that a horse, in this case a stallion, is the reason you met your spouse. But, La Jollas Gold is the reason I met my husband. I leased the great broodmare Air Born Jazz from Randy and Margaret Thompson and purchased the breeding to La Jollas Gold through the Indiana Stallion Auction. I would like to say I was some breeding guru and picked La Jollas Gold for some grand reason. But to be honest other than the fact that I liked the top side of his blood line I, like a lot of girls I know, was itching to own a palomino and purchased his breeding hoping to get a palomino foal. I met Darrel the day Randy Thompson and I dropped “Jazz” off to get bred to La Jollas Gold. We will be standing La Jollas Gold for the remainder of the 2012 breeding season and will still have frozen semen available. To many people, La Jollas Gold being sold to Brazil might seem like just another stallion leaving, just another business deal. To Darrel and me, La Jollas Gold will always be a part of our lives and a part of how we started our lives together.
Tornado Victims - Spring of 2012
(Excerpt from letter received via email) The devastation from the tornadoes that hit southern Indiana and Kentucky on March 2nd was heart wrenching for so many. One family in particular that shows AQHA, NBHA, IBRA, & are major contributors to the 4-H, Bill and Rhonda McCardle, lost EVERYTHING on that Friday. Thankfully no one was home, but they lost their house, barn, vehicles, tractors, and fourteen horses (all perished but one) and three dogs. Some of these horses were world champions. They did find a two week old foal and a nurse mare was brought in for him. They also found a yearling and started treatment, but due to infection he did not survive. They found two of their dogs, Madison and Dixie. Many of our readers have known and barrel raced with this family for 15 years and they are some of the best people you will ever meet. They are always ready to give a helping hand and not ask for anything in return. This

And not just any Quarter Horse Races, we will be running the finals to 5 stakes races and offering over a half million dollars in purses. We will be having a horsemen’s picnic early in the day and party when the races are over. It’s a couple months away, but never too early to start planning!! Legislative Update –There were multiple threats of the horsemen’s money being significantly reduced this recent legislative session in different amendments to bills. Fortunately, we have been able to escape unscathed. BUT, we can’t drop our guard now!! Your QHRAI Board of Directors is currently having meetings with legislators and other breed representatives to plan for next year’s legislative session. We have a plan and will be in touch with our Horsemen in the near future

Important Information for 2012 Regarding Existing Out of Competition Rules
All horses nominated to stake races will be eligible for out of competition testing from the day of nomination. Several drugs were added to Out of Competition Testing for 2011 including Zilpaterol, Ractopamine or any similar agent. If you have any questions about any of these rules, please refer to Indiana Code 71 IAC 8.5-2-5 and 71 IAC 8.5-3-4. You may also contact the Indiana Horse Racing Commission at http://www.in.gov/hrc/ or (317) 233-3120. How This Affects You • Once a horse is nominated to a stake race, he WILL be in the pool of horses used for selection of Out of Competition Testing. • If the owner/trainer has been contacted and notified that their horse has been selected for Out of Competition Testing, that horse must be produced at the track by the time provided by the IHRC. • If the horse is not brought to the race track within the allotted time, the horse will be ineligible to race in Indiana for one year. • The current trainer MUST be named at the time of nomination. If there is a change of trainer at any time, the new information must be forwarded to the Q.H.R.A.I. immediately. • If a nominated horse becomes lame, sick or for any other reason will NOT compete in the trials or finals, he must be officially scratched through the QHRAI (prior to being contacted by IHRC) or he will remain eligible for ALL Out of Competition Rules. • Except for stake races where high money earners are preferred, there will be no refunds of nominations or payments. By signing and submitting this stakes nomination form, the trainer is hereby agreeing to abide by Indiana Horse Racing code. Once this nomination is received by QHRAI, you will receive a reminder for next payment date and a list of nominated horses. Sustaining payments must be submitted on time whether or not you receive this reminder. Nominations and sustaining payments will be added to the stakes purses. A 20% marketing and administration fee will be withheld from all open stakes nomination and sustaining payments. Late payments - If nomination is missed - double the missed nomination plus the first sustaining payment. Must be postmarked by the first sustaining payment date. Late pay after first sustaining payment is double missed payments plus $5,000 plus 2nd sustaining payment. Must be postmarked by June 1st. No late Nominations or payments accepted after June 1st (or after final sustaining payment date, whichever is earliest).

IBRA UPDATES Dear members,
This has been some crazy spring weather for many of us. Just ten minutes before I wrote this I was listening to sirens and watching for a tornado that touched down just two miles down the road. We ask for your continued prayers and support of those who have been effected. We are happy to announce that the home offices portion of the show dollars raised at Henryville, Cloverdale and Portland, IN March 3-11, totaling $578 will be donated to the American Red Cross (Clark County Chapter). As a reminder, please feel free to contact us in the home office as well as your directors and representative to let us know how we are doing. We want to make this the best barrel racing association possible and the only way we can to this is with your help. We hope to see you soon at one of the upcoming preferred shows! Sincerely, Shane Cline, IBRA President

ILLINOIS
Well, I know that everyone is ready to start showing again after a winter off so keep checking for shows added to the website. I will be sending out a letter and all of the show dates I have so far very shortly. One important date to mark on your calendar is August 25, 2012. This will be our State Show and will be a Supershow this year! There will also be a Supershow the following day at the same arena being put on by the saddle club! If anyone has any arenas where they would like to have approved shows, please let me know. Also if you have any questions feel free to give me a call.
INDIANA
Hope everyone noticed that the days are getting a little longer. Spring is on its way! Thanks to those who attended the Indiana match race, March 9,10,&11th at C Bar C. It helped to fund our state show and ran in conjunction with the open classes. North/South long sleeve & short sleeve Tee shirts were sold for the races - info from Chad Bricker @ 260-703-0839 to order. Big stakes were on the line, the losing team has to barbecue at the state show. Hope you were able to attend. Here are some other February updates for our state: 1. The swap meet & tack auction was a huge success. Thanks to everyone that came and supported this fundraiser. A special thanks go out to Chad & Kelly Bricker for the idea and for managing the whole project. Also, a great big thank you goes to Jenny Creech for all her hard work at keeping us organized in the food booth. And a special salute to Beth Coffee who put together the awesome chicken and noodles. I think everyone that ate that night will agree that she is a great cook. A final total will be posted next month after all expenses are deducted.

2. For our state charity, Susan G. Komen , we are doing a great job. Between the 50/50 at Cloverdale where Danielle Barth & Cia Green’s big smiles make you want to buy a ticket to Beth Williamson’s gourmet cakes that were sold at our tack auction ---seems all the IBRA friends and family are pitching in to help fund research for a cure. To date: Indiana IBRA barrel racers have raised $417.50 for Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer research. GREAT JOB! 3. We have added a new position to our state. Please welcome Beth Williamson as Indiana IBRA new Special events coordinator. She is in charge of sitting up our special projects and was the person who did the ground work for this years Indiana’s IBRA charity. She will be a great benefit to our IBRA family. Well, since today’s weather is in the 60s in February --Wayne says it is time for me to get out and ride. So, bye for this month. --Linda

Anything that you, as members, can do to help this year would be great. We need your support. This is a must. I will make this short. Sell them $25.00 business card ads for the state finals program.

Wrangler has come on board as the 2012 Open Saddle Sponsor, so we will be awarding 4 saddles in the Open this year. Youth and Masters will receive Bob Berg Buckles. All other awards will depend upon show fees collected. Thank you Cole Creek for hosting IBRA shows again this year. Jeff Hoyle will serve as the IBRA rep. for that area of the state. We have also added some shows in the Elizabeth City area. Thank you Terry Temple. Please support these producers who are providing shows for you to compete at. We need more shows, for more members, more show dollars and more awards. There is NO sanctioning fee in the IBRA. A show promoter CAN allow rollovers if they so desire. We WILL coapprove with other associations. We want fun shows that people want to attend. We are planning a DOUBLE POINT SHOW later this year at Wallace Arena in Carthage. I will need volunteers to help with this show. I would LOVE to have some shows a Robbins, so please when you are there, talk to the saddle club members about this. Also Hoffman and Hesters have provided some GREAT shows in the past, so lets support them and they will support us.
PA EAST
I want to thank everyone for attending the banquet this year & for wearing pink to support everyone dealing with Cancer! It was nice to give not only the Open Champion saddles but the Youth saddles too! To continue to give saddles to our Champions we need to go out & find sponsors to support our year-end awards. Another way to do this is to do some fundraisers. If you have any ideas, please let myself know, Gay, or Brenda. Tanya Konopinski wants to do a candy sale again this year. It was a great fundraiser last year so see her if your willing to help out! Please don’t forget if you want to run the Sponsorship Race at Nationals you need to turn in at least $100 in sponsorships!

Please don’t forget to check out our Facebook page!
I have been thinking about the State Finals and need to make a decision on where to hold it. I have asked on Facebook and have gotten a lot of replies but need to hear from everyone that I can! Email me your suggestion on where you would like to see our Finals held this year! As a member would you like to help out with running the Finals or just have someone host it? It’s a lot of work putting on a show like this! Do you want the Finals to count for bonus points for the 2012 year? I look forward to hearing your comments! It’s not to early to get out there and get sponsors! It’s March already and I have only gotten a couple sponsors as you can see on the website! We need sponsors in order to keep having nice awards! I can’t buy awards with just show dollars. Please get out and ask everyone, even if they just give $25 it will add up! Also remember you can’t run the sponsorship class at Nationals unless you get at least $100 in sponsorships! The sponsorship form is also listed on the websites! Fundraiser are also a huge help with raising money for awards. We have a few things going on so far! We are holding a Tack Swap at Nicholson’s. Lisa & Chip have been so generous to let us hold this event at their arena. Spaces are $10 for a 10 x 10 space but you need to bring your own table! Donna Bracken & Shana Grow have volunteered to set up a concession table. We will need bake goods (packaged to sell) or you can make a monetary donation. We have decided not to take food donations for this so we make sure that everything is ready. You can mail me a check or I hope to be at Waynesburg so you can give me some money there! Larry “Bubba” Harris (horse chiro) is going to come and give your horse a Spring tune-up if we get enough horses for the day. Please call me if you want to make an appointment. Sessions will be $60 for members & $75 for non-members! We currently have 20 tables reserved so far! Our one Youth Director, Bailey Jo will be holding Ponies rides during the Swap too! We will also be doing the TV raffle again this year so I will be passing tickets out for you to sell! I should have them at the tack swap! Make plans to attend the Fundraiser show being held on Memorial Day weekend at Clyde! More details will be out soon on the show and I hope to post a flyer soon! I don’t know about all of you but I’m so excited to for Nationals this year since it’s going to be in Louisville, KY. I hope all of you give it some consideration on attending, we have a great time, and we get to meet members from other states and even Italy! We usually wear white & turquoise colored matching shirts at Nationals. Do you want to stay with these colors or do you want to get a new color for this year? The shirts run $25 normally! I thought about getting us a banner made this year too to carry....does everyone like this idea? Pennsylvania flag might be nice too! I will also see if we can do the Match Race again this year, we made $700 at last year’s Final, even after purchasing the saddle.

Hello Everyone, Hope everyone has been enjoying the mild weather that we have been having here lately. Hope that everyone is gearing for the spring shows that are right around corner. I know I can’t enough but please go out and try to start getting sponsors for the TN State Finals which will held at the Miller Coliseum in Murfreesboro, TN on Aug. 17-19, 2012. Any amount or donation will gladly be appreciated and accepted. Remember if you $100 sponsorship you are eligible to run in the Directors/Sponsors Race at the National Finals which will be held in Louisville, KY this year on Oct 1-6. Just a reminder of the TN IBRA/ TN NBHA Spring Fling show will be the last weekend in March at Franklin, TN. I still a few cases of candles to sale if anyone would like to sale candles to raise money for year-awards. I plan on ordering some more candy bars to sale also. So please pinch and help out. I’m looking forward another great year and state show. Remember it takes everyone pinching to pull off a successful show. Best of Luck. Jamie

What a great winter we have been having. I hope everyone is enjoying the weather and getting to get some riding in. Want to let everyone know that we are selling Sarris Candy Bars and Pretzel Rods as a fund raiser to help with year end awards. If interested in buying or selling them contact Becky Hinerman.
Would like to let everyone know that we are counting our State Final Show for this year and the next season, like we have done over the past two years. We are doing incentives again this year for most sponsor money raised, more details to come regarding this matter soon. For every $50.00 raised your name will go into a drawing for a prize (to be announced soon also). It’s never to early to start getting sponsorship money. The more money we get, the nicer the awards. We are have a Benfit Show at Grizzle Ridge, LLC on March 10th, for Susie Watkins, all proceeds will be donated to her. We are also going to have a Silent auction at the Waynesburg Show on May 12th, all proceeds will be given to her. If you want to donate any items let Becky know, you can give them to her or bring the day of the Auction. With your help we can make it a success. Will be posting more scheduled dates soon, been working hard on them. Remember for us to have a successful season, I will need all the help of the members to make it a success.

Another great weekend at Showtime Arena and Chism Trail Ranch. Thanks to everyone for coming out to these nice shows. And thanks to the producers for giving us such nice places to run in the winter. Exciting News! Plans are underway for a state finals the weekend of July 27, 28 & 29 at Bound’s Showtime Arena in Deerfield WI. This will give us the opportunity to have a bigger show, added money and more awards. If you have any ideas for a format or awards please let me know. This also means I will need a lot of help from everyone. Thanks Pam for giving us the chance to make this a really nice show. A big thanks to Katelin Bradley, Lisa Lyons and friends for the great pictures they took at Chism Trail and posted on our Facebook page. Watch our Facebook page also for updates. Several summer shows are in the works. Watch the website for new dates. See y’all soon -- Patti

You may be on more than one team if you are running more than one horse. You cannot run two horses on the same team. There will be a Long Go run in conjunction with the $10,000 Guaranteed that will determine the top 10 teams to come back for the Match Race Finals on Sunday. The Top 10 Teams to come back on Sunday will be determined on a point system based on the $10,000 Guaranteed results. 1st place in each division will receive 20 points, 2nd place 19, 3rd place 18 and so on. Your 5 team members points will be added together and the top 10 teams with the highest amount of points will advance to the finals.

Flashback - The Barking Game It has been a year or so since I introduced you all to what used to be one of my favorite pastimes - The Barking Game. For those of you who missed the last journey into the world of doggie fun and games, I’ll shed a little insight. The Barking Game was played like this: I bark and start running towards the driveway, then the other dogs immediately join in and begin barking and running. I then stop, sit back and watch as it quickly becomes a chaotic mess and all the other dogs get scolded for barking and causing a ruckus - all for nothing. As I mentioned, the Barking Game used to be one of my favorite pastimes. It seems things have recently changed. I always liked playing the Barking Game because the Barking Game is fun when you are the instigator. I have always been the instigator and I like being the instigator. But like I said, things have changed. It appears that Princess Annabelle has learned about the best part of the Barking Game. It seems that she likes to be the instigator as well. I hate to admit it, but she has “got me” on more than one occasion lately. I also hate to admit that the Barking Game is not as much fun when you are not the instigator. (As I have recently learned.)
Needless to say, I have lost interest in my old pastime and tend to ignore Princess Annabelle’s instigating barks. I kind of feel sorry for the other dogs, they haven’t figured her out yet and end up halfway up the barn lot and in trouble before they realize she was bluffing. Maybe I should let them in on her antics.....naaaahh, ya never know, I may want to play again someday. (And somebody has to play with me.) In the meantime, I just have to keep my guard up and remember to double check the driveway before taking off when Annabelle is sounding the alarm. On another fun note. We have babies!! They are arriving and they are sooooo cute! I love watching them run around kicking and playing. They are funny when they are trying to learn how to use those long legs. The other dogs aren’t quite sure what to make of all the running and bucking and kicking. I like to hang around by the edge of the fence hoping that they will get a little curious and want to smell noses with me. Their noses are so soft! Of course, getting close is hard for a little dog like me when those big protective mommies are right there all the time. Our neighbor dog (now “live-in” dog), Duke, witnessed his first baby foal being born last month. It was the cutest thing to see big ‘ole Duke laying so still with his big head flat on the floor trying to get a glimpse under the stall door at what was happening on the other side. I wish the people here would’ve taken a picture. (It would’ve went well in my article.) Duke was mesmerized until the baby was on her feet. Then she was as tall as Duke and he wasn’t sure what to think of that. I just laughed. These other dogs have a lot to learn about life on a horse farm. However, their naïvety does provide some great entertainment for yours truly. Until next month.... Enjoying life’s “home” made entertainment.......

Care of the New Born Foal
Last year you bought that special mare and bred her to that special stallion and after almost a year of waiting and making sure the mare had every nutritional and environmental advantage available to her, the time for the foal’s birth is here. You made sure the mare got all her pre-foaling vaccinations four to six weeks before her due date and you have made all the correct decisions in this process so far. Now you have to decide whether or not to let the mare take care of the birthing process on her own or do you make sure someone is with her when she foals? Not having a knowledgeable and experienced person with the mare when she foals is like driving ninety nine yards for the touchdown and deciding to stop on the one yard line. It just doesn’t make sense. There is a tremendous amount of expense that has already gone into getting a healthy foal on the ground. Depending on how many foals you raise each year, if you loose one foal because no one was there to help with any problems, then you have lost any amount of money you may have saved by not having the mare monitored during foaling. You have especially come out behind if you consider possible lost earnings of the foal and possible record enhancement to the mare, stallion and your breeding program. It is also much less expensive to prevent a problem than it is to treat one. One of the relatively common problems that can develop in new born foals and especially those that have unmonitored births is the “dummy foal” syndrome. This syndrome can be caused by a short period of time during the birthing process that the foal does not receive enough oxygen. The lack of oxygen causes the mental abilities of the foal to be diminished for up to a few days. The lack of oxygen could be caused by blocked airways as the foal comes out of the birth canal. An experienced person monitoring the birth can make sure the airways are open. They can also have equipment on hand to assist the foal with breathing if assistance is needed. An oxygen tank with the ability to supply oxygen directly to the foal’s nostrils can save many foals from developing “dummy foal” syndrome. Many times just a small amount of effort will be the difference in having a live healthy foal, a sick foal with veterinary bills attached or in the worst case scenario, a dead foal. Once the foal is born, the next goal is to get him up within two hours and nursing within three hours. It is important for the foal to nurse well within three hours because the gut starts “closing” within four hours of birth and is totally closed within twenty four hours of birth. This means that the GI system is unable to absorb large molecules once it has closed. Antibodies are large molecules so if the foal does not absorb enough maternal antibody within the first four to twelve hours the chances are it will be deficient in antibodies that are needed to prevent disease. Even if the foal is given colostrum twenty four hours after birth, the body cannot absorb it. A normal foal will nurse at least hourly and should be able to readily find the teat. If the foal is bumping the mammary glands but not really sucking vigorously, then this is a sign that the foal is
Page 56
Article By Dr. Steve Fisch, DVM getting weak for some reason. If this happens, now is the time to get veterinary care. Waiting a few hours can mean the difference between saving and loosing the foal. Sometimes all the foal needs is to get tubed with three to five hundred mls of colostrum or milk to give it a boost of energy and fluids. Once the foal gets strong enough to nurse from the energy of the tubed fluids it can start the cycle of nursing and keeping itself strong. If however the foal does not respond to the tubed milk then an intravenous catheter should be placed and the foal should be given IV fluids. Keeping the foal well hydrated is critical. When the foal is twelve to twenty four hours old it should have a blood sample pulled to check for maternal antibody level. If the value is less than 800mg/dl of IgG then the foal should be given at least one liter of equine plasma from hyperimmunized donors. If the foal is showing any sign of a problem such as weakness, diarrhea, constipation or any sign of dismaturity or prematurity then the foal should also have a complete blood count and a fibrinogen blood sample tested. If there is any sign of infection the foal should be put on broad spectrum antibiotics. Another step that should be taken to ensure a healthy foal is dipping the foal’s navel in 25 per cent chlorhexidene solution. This should be done every few hours until the umbilical stump is dry. The umbilical stump is an excellent place for bacteria to enter the body and keeping in covered with dilute chlorhexidene helps kill any bacteria that may attempt to enter the body at this point. The foal should have a veterinary examination at twenty four hours of age to detect any abnormalities with such as angular limb deformities, entropion or joint ill. If treated and diagnosed early these conditions can many times be treated successfully and sometimes they can be treated very inexpensively. It cannot be emphasized enough that the newborn foal should be monitored closely for the first few weeks. There are many times that a foal can seem happy and healthy in the morning and be severely sick in the evening. A sick foal is not a “wait and see” matter. A sick foal is always a cause for timely, accurate and aggressive veterinary attention. Many times that’s all it takes to insure the foal that you took so much care, time and expense to get here has a chance to become the winner you knew it could be.

“Skinny” Fun
With Raquel Rzeszotarski
s l e e &H F
or those of you who are familiar with my monthly column, you already know this one thing about me; I’m cowboy boot obsessed. I believe that wearing cowboy boots is for more than just the arena. I’ve recently become a huge fan of a site called Polyvore. Polyvore is a site where you can put outfits & creations together. I’ve going to share with you some outfits for spring all involving cowboy boots that are going out, shopping, & everyday life approved. The first outfit contains elements of gold, pink, & cowhide. I love pairing skinny jeans with cowboy boots & Wrangler is introducing a collection of colored denim that will be hitting the stores very soon.
Transition ng Into Spri
The outfit to the right contains neutral colors for those of you who don’t want to dive right into the bold color scheme right away. The brown dress & cowboy boots are both made by Ariat.
Page 58
FASHION SECTION This third outfit was inspired by a pair of Macie Bean boots, I love the bold & bright colors & the leopard print. Throw in some turquoise & gold & you are good to go.
My fourth outfit is casual & carefree. I picked out a skirt from PFI Western Store, Macie Bean boots & expensive accessories from Crow’s Nest Trading Co. Fringe is a great causal & rustic accessory that you can add to any look for a western flair.

This last outfit is a bit more dressed up (and expensive) Old Gringo cowboy boots come at a much higher price point. Pairing them with a casual cotton dress creates a simple & elegant look with feather jewelry.
The fifth outfit was inspired by Ariat’s boots from the Quincy collection. I have a feeling we will be seeing a lot of turquoise skinny jeans this spring & summer as well.

The daffodils are in bloom...the grass is getting greener...the robins have been frequenting the back yard and the horses are shedding...IT MUST BE SPRING! If you want to be a Cowboy Mounted Shooter don’t pass up all the early opportunities to give it a try. The Hoosier Horse Fair in Indiana, The Equine Affair in Columbus, Ohio are just a few places you can catch Mounted Shooters giving demo’s and having information booths. Or get on the computer and go to www.cmsaevents.com and contact a club near you. You will find membership information along with scheduled clinics and shoots. New shooters are welcome at any shoot and bring your horse! 1st Ohio hosted a DWPQ indoors in Sabina, Ohio February 26th, the day was sunny, the temp was cold and windy but that didn’t slow the shooters down. When the smoke cleared it was evident that these Cowboys and Cowgirls meant business...After 4 stages of fast riding and straight shootin, Dawn Smitely riding Woodrow was the Overall Champion with Joyce Mingus Nelson riding I’m Smokey Eyed in the reserve position. The Overall Cowboy was “Riverboat’ Rick Sage” from Cincinnati, riding Rebel.

Welcome back to Travis Newman, the Kentucky cowboy recently took a couple of years off from shooting, he showed up at Sabina and didn’t even look rusty! Time to get ole’buck out of the pasture and together learn something new! Cowboy Mounted Shooting is the fastest growing equine sport, not only in the United States, we also have mounted shooting clubs in Canada, Germany, Denmark, and Australia. Its fun, fast, friendly and family oriented. There is a class level for all shooters and riders, from the beginner to the professional. Cowboy Mounted Shooting has divisions in Open, Senior, and Wranglers (under 12) and we are gender split.
Lots of new Kentucky shooters were in attendance, with the Kentucky group growing in leaps and bounds I believe a CMSA club is in the works. Currently there are some practices happening in Lancaster, KY the 1st & 3rd Friday of the month and practice on Sunday at Hodge Arena. 1st Ohio will host a DWPQ shoot on Saturday, March 24th at the Cowtown (indoor) Arena in Williamstown, KY.

Happy Easter !!!
Hi... Starting off on such a sad subject. The tornadoes that have destroyed so many families, homes, animals, and towns. This is devastating. Bill and Rhonda McCarldle’s (from Crittenden, Ky) farm was destroyed and 15 horses killed and family dogs and cats (I am sure there are many more horse people that this tornado hit but I have only heard of these.) Bill and Rhonda were luckily not home at the time. We had a tornado hit (less than 50 miles from our farm ) at Holton, Indiana the town is a mess. The church I belong to will be helping this town. We did a drop off over the weekend of supplies. We all need to help our community thru this rough time. I went to Cloverdale a couple weeks ago, got a couple checks in the 1D and was happy. They had over 200 in the barrel race. As I mentioned before the ground was good and the place looks great.

Indiana High School Rodeo Association
IHSRA RODEOS TO BENEFIT OTHERS Partnering with the IHSRA for a rodeo can be a very successful fundraiser for not-for-profit organizations! The IHSRA has partnered with the ARC of Boone County and with the Bartholemew Consolidated School Corporation for very successful rodeo events in 2010 and 2011. These two rodeos have been big events two years running, and the planning for 2012 has begun! In Boone County, the IHSRA has teamed up with the Arc of Boone County for a third year! This rodeo has become an annual event held the second weekend of June at the Boone County 4-H Fairgrounds. The Arc of Boone County is a not-for-profit organization that does job training and education for adults with disabilities. (www.thearcgbc.org) This rodeo weekend includes a “VIP Rodeo” for the clients of Arc. Contestants of the IHSRA spend time with these very special people and share the rodeo experience with them up close and personal! Joe Sullivan, aka Hopalong Cassidy is also a big part of this event! Joe brings his wholesome
message to the crowd during the rodeo performance, reminding us all about what is really important in life. He spends time with the crowd and he has been a great blessing to all of us in the IHSRA. This rodeo is also a time for “alumni and friends of the IHSRA” to enter and jackpot! If you are alumni of any high school rodeo association, or you participate in rodeo events as an adult, check our website (ihsraonline.org) for an entry form coming soon. We would love for you to come and join in the fun! Through the efforts of Marcia Clutter, Community Relations Director for the Arc of Boone County, we have a new corporate sponsor this year in the Hatchette Book Group. The employees of the Hatchette Book Group will have their company picnic at the fairgrounds on Sunday June 10th. The rodeo will be the entertainment for the employees and their families. This is truly a way to make some sponsorship work and be a benefit for all involved! We are look-in forward to another great event in Boone County June 9-10, 2012. Check us out at boonecountyrodeo.org.

I.H.S.R.A. Member SPOTLIGHT Brayton Dewees
I.H.S.R.A would like for you to meet Brayton Dewees from Lebanon, Indiana. Brayton is a 15 year old freshman at Western Boone Jr/Sr High School. His parents are John and Brenda Dewees. Brayton’s rodeo horse is a little sorrel mare named Whiskey who is 27 years old and acts like she’s 10! Some of his favorite events in rodeo are Team Roping and Calf Roping. He has been in rodeo for five years, and says that it’s a little different moving up into high school rodeo. Brayton plans on finishing out his high school rodeo career, then move on to Purdue or a rodeo college and pursue a degree in veterinary medicine. Then a little on down the road he wants to own a ranch. When asked why he participates in the Indiana High School Rodeo Association he responded, “There is no more nicer people than the rodeo family and also because rodeo is fun and it keeps me busy.” Braxton’s most memorable rodeo moment to date was making it to the Junior High National Finals Rodeo in Gallup, New Mexico for the first time. .
Emma Shepherd Emma Shepherd is IHSRA’s other student of the month for April. Emma is a 17 year old senior attending Knightstown High School in – you guessed it, Knightstown, Indiana! Her parents are Robin and Danny Shepherd. Emma’s rodeo horses are Country and Hollywood and she has been a member of the Indiana High School Rodeo Association for two years. Her future goals are to go to college and rodeo, earn her doctoral degree majoring in equine science and minoring in business management. She would also like to rodeo professionally and qualify for the NFR. Emma says that she is involved in IHSRA because she loves rodeo and has always been around it. She also says, “Rodeo gives me a sense of freedom that no other sport can. Knowing that my partner is my best friend and traveling all over together just makes the long hauls, the hard work, the tears, and sweat and sometimes blood worthwhile. I wouldn’t want to have it any other way.” Her most memorable rodeo moment was 2011 IHSRA 2011 State Finals – “the shaving cream fight was so fun and everyone was just having a blast!”

CHRISTIAN COWBOY COLLECTION
w/ Christa Conway
Watch Where Yer Steppin’
OK, if you have regained your composure...(I know, I can’t believe I said it either... at least I cleaned it up a bit) let’s go on. The real point I am trying to make is that when you are around something that starts out being “less desirable” for an extended amount of time, you kind of grow numb to it’s original effects. If you are exposed to “poo” for days on end, the “poo” ceases to bother you.’
How many times have you heard that? Or better yet....how many times have you had to say that while giving a “tour” of the farm? Warning unknowing “city-folk” of droppings from either equine, bovine or - heaven forbid - canine. We take it as coming with the territory, they just say “ewwwww!” and “that stinks!” Life is full of droppings that we have to avoid. (And, yes, I am going there!) Living on a horse farm, I have to admit, I don’t have the “ewwwwww” reaction when I head out to the barn to pick stalls or ride. I don’t even give much of a look when one of our residents greets me with a fresh “bouquet.” We all know why I don’t have the same reaction as the city people. (No, it’s not because they are uptight or sheltered.) It is because I am used to the smells around the farm. Just like a cattle farmer or even a hog farmer gets somewhat accustomed to the fragrance that greets them every day at their barn, I’ve just gotten used to it. Now, we have a hog farm (finishing house) down the road from us and on certain days when the wind is just right, you can be sure to hear me give out an “ewwww” or two. I am not a hog farmer. I do not prefer the smell of hogs to horses. Maybe my hog farmer neighbor feels the opposite of me. His prerogative. To some extent what I am trying to say is this....none of us think our poop stinks.
Page 72
In everyday circumstances we can allow things that we normally wouldn’t be “OK” with to find their way into our lives and pretty soon we are “OK” with what used to get a reaction from us. For example, I have two younger kids. We watch TV in the evenings as a family and I know there are things on TV that would not have been allowed when I was a kid...period. Little by little, we have grown accustomed to the violence, the sex, the language, until we don’t think it is so bad anymore - if we notice it at all. I find myself overlooking things that would have had my grandmother cringing and telling my grandpa, “Herb, turn off that nonsense!” Do we really allow things (sin) to ”stink” up our lives? It would be hard to realize unless you took a step back and -like the “city folk” on the farm - get another perspective. After all, I may not notice it as sin if I’ve become accustomed to it. How do those around us look at our lives? Are they noticing what we haven’t taken the time to clean up in a while? (Our sins) Are we oblivious to friends who are “holding their noses” when they are around us? I mean, are we really that bad? Am I that bad? I tried to step back and think about how I have reacted when I’ve been to a hog farm. This is what I remember - the smell consumes me. It is so strong that I cannot think of much else. The smell makes it hard to focus on anything but the bad. Is that how it is for us a Christians? When we have something “stinking” up our life,
does it prevent others from seeing God in us? Does the “smell” (our sin) overwhelm those we could be witnessing to - into thinking they don’t want to be around us? What can we do to prevent this? In our barn to prevent an overwhelming “smell,” we clean those stalls! We clean our stalls everyday, sometimes twice a day. Why aren’t we doing the same thing with our lives? Then after we clean out those stalls, we add CLEAN bedding - we fill those stalls back up with CLEAN, FRESH bedding. We need to be continually cleaning out our lives - asking God for forgiveness for those sins, and then we should be FILLING our lives with CLEAN, FRESH, PURE things like scripture, kind words, uplifting words to others, prayer, etc. The scripture tells us: Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Think on these things. TRUE things HONEST things JUST things PURE things LOVELY things Things of GOOD REPORT If there be any VIRTUE If there be any PRAISE Think on these things. I can guarantee one thing that would happen if we were all to think on those things. Scripture says it in the very next verse: Philippians 4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. It seems so simple - but it is so true....
Until next month.... Let’s all work on “cleaning up” Happy Trails & God Bless! Christa
On the Trail
By Brother Brad Curtis of Mountain Top Cowboy Church
A BOOST UP The Trails Boss rode up Looked at her standing there Just a little girl With a big sorrel mare
He said sis it’s alright To be kind`a small I see what you’re goin` through Yep I know it all
Then the Trail Boss smiled Said I’ll send my son to you He will give you a boost And show you what to do
He said sis you need a hand By the looks of things Or you could fly on up If you had angels wings
You’re here in the wild With that big ol` hoss Then I ride up But I am the Trail Boss
You will never get lost Ridin` on my spread That hoss will follow me Like she’s being led
Now that’s a big ol` mare For such a tiny gal Why don’t you ride the pony Back in the old corral
Sis if you will take it I’ll give you a hand Then you can ride that sorrel All across my land
So sis are you ready To ride that big ol` mare Here is your boost up Grab you a handful of hair
She looked up at him Then just shook her head no Lookin` broken hearted With eyes like a doe
She said sir I want to ride And I’ve tried every day But this horse is so big I just don’t see a way
Step into my son’s hands As he lifts you upon high Then we’ll ride together Tellin` your troubles goodbye

John 8:10-11 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

One Last (& most important) thought… Salvation is a gift and a choice......
Read past issues of our Christian Cowboy Collection and the Christian Barrel Racer’s Newsletter at the website below!
Jesus died on the cross as the final sacrifice. When He was resurrected on the 3rd day, he defeated Satan for us. All we have to do is believe that He beat death and acknowledge it with our words. If we believe that and accept Him as our personal savior…we are promised eternal life with Him in Heaven. You can’t earn your way into Heaven; you have to believe your way there. So many people think they “aren’t good enough” to get to Heaven… But… Salvation is a GIFT from God and you don’t earn a gift. Gifts are something someone gives to you and for the gift to be yours, you have to accept it. All we have to do is accept that wonderful gift. I know I have…won’t you? But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many. Romans 5:15
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. Romans 10: 9-10

ITOBA NEWS - Indiana Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association
ITOBA News
ITOBA is happy to announce that, as of the last Board Meeting on March 5, 2012, Christina Lawton, Manager of Swifty Farms, Inc in Seymour, IN, will now be serving as the Executive Director of ITOBA. Christina was crucial in the implementation and execution of ITOBA’s affairs and events last year, and there is no doubt that she will continue to apply her skills and efforts to benefit the members of ITOBA, as well as the Indiana Horsemen in the year to come. On a related note, ITOBA would like to invite any and all of it’s members to attend the monthly Board Meetings held at the racetracks here in Indiana. As Christina accepts her position of Executive Director, she must resign her seat on the Board of ITOBA. There will always be a need to replace Board Members as they move on, and we’re looking for motivated individuals with an active interest and enthusiasm in helping to promote the Thoroughbred Industry in Indiana. In addition, the members of the Board are continually seeking ideas and input from the general membership to help guide our efforts and discussions, and these monthly board meetings are a great venue for communication. As always, any help with our various sales, seminars, and/or tradeshows/expos/fairs is always appreciated and welcomed. Below is a schedule of the upcoming board meetings, as well as venues (which can be subject to change so please call and confirm if you’re planning on coming).
ITOBA Member Spotlight
The board would like to congratulate trainer (and ITOBA member) Michael Lauer and his horse Scatman (Owned by James O’Grady) as they currently reside on the list of Derby contenders. We will be following this horse closely, and would like to wish their team continued success in the races to come. For more information about Michael Lauer and his training program, please visit his website at www.melracing.com/about
Hoosier Horse Fair
ITOBA will have a booth at the upcoming Hoosier Horse Fair being held April 13-15 at the Indiana State Fair Grounds. Be sure to stop by to learn more about the organization, as well as pose for some great photo opportunities! Page 82

Life is full of droppings that we have to avoid. (And, yes, I am going there!) Living on a horse farm, I have to admit, I don’t have the “ewwwwww” reaction when I head out to the barn to pick stalls or ride. I don’t even give much of a look when one of our residents greets me with a fresh “bouquet.” We all know why I don’t have the same reaction as the city people. (No, it’s not because they are uptight or sheltered.) It is because I am used to the smells around the farm. Just like a cattle farmer or even a hog farmer gets somewhat accustomed to the fragrance that greets them every day at their barn, I’ve just gotten used to it.
Now, we have a hog farm (finishing house) down the road from us and on certain days when the wind is just right, you can be sure to hear me give out an “ewwww” or two. I am not a hog Wild farmer.Heart I do not the smell ofGUY hogs French byprefer FRENCHMANS to horses. Maybe my hog farmer neighbor
For example, I have two younger kids. We watch TV in the evenings as a family and I know there are things on TV that would not have been allowed when I was a kid...period. Little by little, we have grown accustomed to the violence, the sex, the language, until we don’t think it is so bad anymore - if we notice it at all. I find myself overlooking things that would have had my grandmother cringing and telling my grandpa, “Herb, turn off that nonsense!” Do we really allow things (sin) to ”stink” up our lives? It would be hard to realize unless you took a step back and -like the “city folk” on the farm - get another perspective. After all, I may not notice it as sin if I’ve become accustomed to it. How do those around us look at our lives? Are they noticing what we haven’t taken the time to clean up in a while? (Our sins) Are we oblivious to friends who are “holding their noses” when they are around us? I mean, are we really that bad? Am I that bad?
I tried to step back and think about how I have reacted when I’ve been to a hog farm. This is what I remember - the smell consumes me. It is so strong that I cannot think of much else.
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Think on these things.
WILD S
TRUE things HONEST things JUST things PURE things LOVELY things Things of GOOD REPORT If there be any VIRTUE If there be any PRAISE Think on these things.
I can guarantee one thing that would happen if we were all to think on those things. Scripture says it in the very next verse: Philippians 4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
It seems so simple - but it is so true....

Mystery of the Month This month’s Mystery cowboy is show compteting around “nail-kegs” in the Speed & Action event. This cowboy competed in all of the contest events back in the 50s, 60s and early 70s. He rode several horses for many different people during those years and had alot of success. He has family still involved with horses today. If you can correctly identify our cowboy.....and give us as much information as possible....you can win your choice of a one year subscription to The Horse Resource, a “Horsey Hat” or a “Horsey-T.” Please send us your photos from the past....we’d like to use them in our Mystery of the Month. Horses, people, events, etc... Send via email to: thehorseresource@msn.com or mail to The Horse Resource 12601 S CR 200 W Muncie, IN 47302 We will return your original photos to you.
We Have Winners! Our March Mystery winner is Pat Rowels! Pat knew that our mystery cowboy is Mike White of Ohio! Mike is shown after winning the Tri-State Boot & Saddle Club Sweepstakes in (1980 or 1981) in East Liverpool, Ohio. The horse is Mr Dynamo Bugs. Congrats to Pat! Pam Mack identified our February Mystery group of people. They were involved with one of Indiana’s oldest horse related organizations - the Contest Rider’s Association (that sadly dissolved a few years back.) This was the Board of Director’s from the mid-80s (we didn’t pin-point the year.)
The are from Left to Right: Pete Frauhiger, Susie Frauhiger, Genie (Prescott) Reidy, Teresa (Haffner) Meyers, Tootie Rice, Bill Finney, Terry Rice and Jerry Cobb. Here were our hints: One cowgirl’s father was in a recent issue of The Horse Resource honoring his Quarter Horse Racing History (Genie Reidy’s father - Calvin Prescott. Genie is Pam Mack’s sisiter!) Two of the cowboys are closely related to The Horse Resource (literally).....Tootie is Christa (Rice) Conway’s uncle and Terry Rice is her dad! Pam also let us know that the CRA was founded in 1964 and her husband Tom Mack along with Raymond Duke, George Clemonts, John Hamilton, John Stweart and Sam Small were involved in it’s beginnings. Pam chose to extend her subscription for one year as her prize. Congrats!
Do You Still Like Playing? Help Us Out..... We are running low on photos.....Please send us your older photos of horsemen and women (and kids) that are still active in the horse business today.
