Spring is coming!   

Spring is coming!  The calendar says so.  Region 4's first show of the year, Rally in the Valley saw a significant increase in entries over last year's show in spite of snow in the valley on move-in day.  At Scottsdale this year and even last year at Canadian Nationals, many new folks were indicating they were planning to come to Nampa in June for the Region 4 Championship Show.  Word is getting around.  Thanks exhibitors.

Our local Region 4 clubs provide many ways for you to enjoy your horses and to socialize with others with similar interests.  As we get longer days and, hopefully, better weather you may want to participate in trail rides, clinics or other fun activities.  If your club doesn't offer what you want, maybe you can help organize an event.  My horses never know what to expect.  Last weekend it was a show, but today Gracie and I are going on a trail ride with my neighbor.

Speaking of clubs, our Region has a brand new club, the Cascade Arabian Sport Horse Club.  This club will be having a two day Sport Horse show at Devonwood at the end of July.  You can use it to qualify for the Sport Horse Nationals, which is returning to Nampa, Idaho for this year.

Any of the officers and/or committee chairs would be eager to help you connect with your area of interest.  Feel free to contact us.
