2013 Fallen Horsemen Memorial Show Will Honor 11 New Horsemen and Women
Brookville, Ohio – The third annual Fallen Horsemen Memorial Horse Show will add eleven more names to its wall of honor during the event, which will be held August 30-September 1 at Circle G Arena, Lewisburg
(Brookville area).
The open horse show was the idea of founder Tammy Denlinger-Lickliter, who created the event to honor Ohio and the surrounding area’s most influential horsemen and women. Lickliter teamed with the Miami Valley Horse Show Association to honor fallen horsemen and women who have made an impact on the horse industry.
“We have another great group of honorees this year,” Lickliter said. “The Fallen Horsemen Memorial Horse Show is a great way to recognize these special horsemen and women or anyone who enabled your life with horses. We have a new website this year and in it you will find many photos of these folks and others dating back as far as 1918. Anyone can sponsor their loved one or mentor.” www.fhmhs.com
