The St. Judes ride went really well. Thank you to all those that attended. The saddle club
put on a really good pot luck, the food was great. And thanks to everyone who brought something. A big thanks
goes out to randy and Anita Lossing for hosting the ride. And if you haven't been by Anita's tack shop you should
stop it is really nice!!
Audrey will be keeping the arena mowed. She also got some trash cans, and painted the barrels.
Clean up Day: In between the rain drops, we replaced something like 10-15 rails, and picked 5
buckets of rocks. We got wet, but we all had fun anyway. Thank you to Tawni and Alan for bringing so many rails,
and Roger and JoAnn for bringing a few too. Thank you to Shyla, Shani, Naomi, and Amber for picking rocks. Thanks Alan
for Trimming up all the rails, they look a lot better now. And thanks to Audrey, Ed, Lisa, JoAnn, and Tawni for helping
to put up the rails.
And thanks to all those that pick rock whenever they use the arena, it is greatly appreciated. I know that Ruthanne
and Shanna were there on Memorial day and picked rock for a couple hours, thank You.
The speakers were tested and put up on Thursday before the meeting.
It looks like we may have one volunteer for poop duty for parades ( she's not sure if she can make the 3rd and 4th of
July parades, yet). so we are still looking for at least one more. And Ed's nephew is going to be driving the
4 wheeler pulling the trailer.

Toni is going to be making new signs for the start and finish pens. The start pen is next to the Sugar Shack and
the Announcers Booth. The finish pen is on the Timber Hall side. It would be appreciated if everyone could start
and finish in these pens. And if you could please have your horse down to a walk by the end of the runway it would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks.
The Raffle tickets are done. And if you would like some please contact Audrey. She will have some at the
playday. The person who sells the most will get a really nice black bridal with silver and matching rains.
The concessions this year is going to be putting up cones were they would like to be, so do not park were there are cones.

this more in the next few meetings.
