2)We are going to have a trail ride for the association at the Country Lane Bed & Breakfast in Roseland -( just north of Amite) on July 19. We plan to ride from 9:00 until 11:00, then have lunch at the cabana at 12:00. Lunch will not be provided, but maybe we can convince our arena crew to do some cooking if you bring the food. There is also a pool.

If we can get a good turnout & head count before we arrive, we might be able to get a group discount, but that will depend on our numbers, if you are interested please contact Jeanne or connie if you are interested so they can do a count.
3)Don't for get our official FPHA T-Shirts fo sale. We will have them at the shows, the fun show & Trail ride.

6) Betsy Robertson will be at our June Show taking pictures. This will be a good chance to get some pictures of your horse in action- or in my case non action.
7)This year we will be voting for the Sportsmanship Award at the October & November shows. We will have a voting Bucket at the entry desk.
8) For all of our competitors for the All Around Saddle- Remember you must Show in all 3 Categories in at least 5 shows to be eligible for the saddle.
