Letter from the Directors

Hello Cutters!

We're excited to announce that our FCHA Winter Circuit held December 28 through the 31st was a huge success. The new four-day format worked well, with the days ending at a reasonable hour, giving everyone a chance to show their horses and then get a good dinner and visit with each other. There were lots of cookouts and bonfires and socializing going on. It was good to see all the classes with lots of entries in them, and everyone enjoying their horses and getting to visit with their friends, too. Having the stalls prepaid also turned out to be a good idea, with all 160 stalls being used. Claudia, our Secretary, ran a friendly and efficient office, and Jeremy, our Announcer, kept the show running smoothly. Those two make a great team and we appreciate them.
