I am so behind in posting this, but it has been a long week. We finished up with all of the checks today, both show checks and KISS checks, so everyone check your mailbox later this week! Despite our December date having to be rescheduled due to the EHV-1 outbreak, and a month of brutal cold weather, we had a good turnout and a great time.

Congratulations to Futurity Average Winner ( and both go's winner) Cassie Morton on SS I Am Misty. Reserve Futurity Champion was William Ball on RR Mist My Crown, Owned by Robin Weaver. 3rd in the average was Haley Faust on a Streakinglittlefling. William Ball also won the pole futurity on Doug Brown and Tim Parkers, Designer Tux.
