“It Didn’t Go Unnoticed…”

We received such a nice note from a competitor who attended her first big AQHA event, the Arizona Sun Circuit, that we couldn’t help but share it with our readers.

“Arizona Sun Circuit was my first big show. Being a newcomer to the all around world and having a new horse, one can only imagine my delight, as well as my fear, entering the show pen.”

“I just want to thank my competitors for their kindness in the show pen and out of the show pen; the staff, who literally had to steer me through the show grounds at times; and the judges who worked tirelessly day in and day out. It didn’t go unnoticed during the late night in the youth Trail pen, while they were bundled in blankets but still smiling for each entry.

Thanks again for a memorable show. You all make AQHA proud.”

We can only hope this is how all newcomers to the horse industry feel. Remember, once upon a time, you went to your first big horse show…
