Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you know that the LEMHC has been working with the Valencia County Fair management to bring you a new show on August 29th! As we are just starting out this will be an exhibition show that will follow AMHA guidelines.

The show will start at 6pm on Saturday August 29th (exhibitors are asked to be there at 5pm to do entries). There will be an abbreviated class list of 20-25 classes for the youth and open divisions. We will have halter, showmanship, obstacles, hunter, the three driving divisions, versatility, reinsmanship, costume, and possibly liberty.

We will also be using club obstacles and jumps, so this is a great opportunity to get out and practice in front of a crowd! There will be a $40 per horse flat fee to show, meaning that for $40 you can show that horse in any class you like. Please check back soon for more info.

Thank you to the Valencia County Fair and to Fran Johnston of Moondancer Minis for making this possible.

They missed us in the Valencia Newspaper, but we will be showing!
