Bits & Bitting Clinic~
Sunday November 13, 2011 at 1:00-3:00 PM – Bring your horse and Cheryl will assess your bit! If you are having problems or just want to double-check this is the clinic for you! The clinic will begin with a short lecture about different types of bits. We will then allow for students to get their horses out to be evaluated for bridle and bit fit, correct use of the bit you have and to change the bit if necessary. Spectators are free and riders are only $20.00 each. Be sure to sign up early as space for horse/rider combos is limited. After the clinic, double your fun by adding the Trail class to your day. Contact Cheryl directly or get more info on the web site- www.crktrainingstable.com. See you at the barn!

Final 2011 Horse Show?~
Our final show of the 2011 season was a great success. Two riders took the plunge into the horse show pond and came up winners! Sherry rode Holly and Caroline rode Chewie in the Open Walk/Trot division at the Mira Loma show on Sunday 10/23/11. This was the first show for Caroline and the first time Sherry showed Holly. Both riders demonstrate great promise as show riders. I look forward to seeing their continued progress next year.
Sherry & Holly-

W/T Pleasure- 1st.

Quotable Quotes~
A stubborn horse walks behind you, an impatient horse walks in front of you, but a noble companion walks beside you.
Since this seems to be the month for riders with confidence issues, this one is for you.
Your horse can only be as brave as you are.
That’s all folks!
