Thanks to everyone who helped raise money to help start our our youth club's year. Thanks for all of the baskets given and sold and Hansen's for their donation of a stud fee and a Horse Power ad. Also Mrs. Boldt for the framed art. Thanks to my Aunt Sherry for giving all of the new youth sweat shirts for all of the Iowa youth kids. So if you didn't get yours let me know. If you want to buy one the sweat shirts are $20.00 each.

The Youth Team had an AWESOME Team Tournament and we ended up placing 7th overall. We received Fourth as a team in Hippology, Seventh in Parade of States, First in Knowledge Relay, Tommy placed 7th Horsemanship and Kourtney Smith placed 8th in horsemanship, and Brittney placed ninth in Barrels. We should be getting a lot of great pictures of the parade from Cindy and Brandie Moon. The kids had a blast and were very united as a team. Everyone cheered everyone else on and it showed what a great bunch of youth and youth parents we have. We all are excited to go again next year. A huge "Atta Girl" to Cindy for the preparation and completion of the whole team experience. We all appreciate her determination and drive to do well.

In the regular part of the show:

Tommy made the finals and placed 10th in Horsemanship and 7th in Showmanship.

Candi made the finals in her Hunter Under Saddle class.

Overall, all of the youth had a pretty good World Show and were proud to represent Iowa . Several youth placed well under judges in their cuts but didn't make the finals. Congrats to all for doing their best!
