Greetings:

May has been an exciting month with the horse shows starting up, the much improved weather, plus many of us have new foals or are breeding our mares. Our Fun Show, which is now run by the Board, went well, thanks to Ann Hertel, her daughter Lily, Pat King, Judy Price , Mike Zbock and myself. And, of course our Judge, Corky Sutton.

     Our May meeting at Ilio's featured the film Path to Glory which was enjoyed by all who attended. However, it is with great anticipation, I am soooo looking forward to the Eastern Classic . Bob McEntee has truly put together a great program. And Ron Kucinski's sponsorship plan is very close to our target goal of $10,000! So I ask all members to please consider contributing a sponsorship so that our show will be the huge success we had hoped for. We have many new trainers inquiring about coming to our show and I hope we can lure all of them to see how great the show will be.....There will be lots of food, including an Ice Cream Social put on by the Youth, many new prizes, and we even will have LIVE entertainment Saturday night!.

  I look forward to seeing you there and hope you all have a great time and a pleasant experienceshowing your horses at the Eastern Classic.

Greetings fellow members.....

It's here!.....Show season... now if only the weather cooperates....I can hardly wait for the Eastern Classic. Bob has really done an amazing job making sure this show will be better than ever including calling many out of town trainers and exhibitors to encourage them to come and participate in our show.

 Also, our next meeting will feature the presentation of the film "Path to Glory" the story of the Polish Arabian horse. If you can attend this meeting you will be impressed with the information gained from it...Please try and come...you will not be disappointed.

 Our new and revised by laws were included in the last newsletter...if you feel any of the changes made are of concern, please contact me or one of the Board members to discuss your views. Otherwise they will be accepted and a copy forwarded to AHA.

That's it for now....hope to see you at the next meeting...

Greetings fellow members.....

Spring is finally here. The horse are shedding like crazy! Time to get ready for the horseshows and seeing everyone again.

The Board of Directors has been working on revising the By-Laws and, of course, preparing for the Eastern Classic.

   We hope the changes being made will make our show better than ever!

Please review the By-laws published in the news letter. If you feel anything should be changed, please contact me or one of the Board     members.

    I am cutting this message short so you can get back to your chores and the warmer weather! Pat Zbock

Greetings fellow members,

Just a short message this month due to no meeting last month.

First, Congratulations to all the Scottsdale participants. I watched the show each day and was impressed with the quality of the horses competing. I don’t envy the weather they had though. It sure was shocking to see snow!

I had planned to have a different program for this months meeting, however due to other issues that need to be addressed, I felt we should deal with them first and postpone the program for another date.

Our sponsorship program for the Eastern Classic show is off to a great start thanks to Ron Kucinski. The Classic is on track to be one amazing show due to Bob McEntee’s hard work.

Our Youth group is growing and our club is looking forward to new faces.

Please attend the membership meetings

so you are aware of the changes being made by the Board.

Pat Zbock

(Sponsorship forms are here for your use too!)

Presidents Message

January has proven to be an interesting month for our weather....those

of us who aren't lucky enough to have indoor arenas have dealt with snow, rain

and bright sunny days....The mud has been never ending!

       Our High Score Dinner was wonderful....so glad we were able to pull it

off with no snow storm happening....The dinner held at Michael's Banquet Facility

was excellent. Becky Haslinger did a great job making the arrangements as

usual. Ann Hertel amazed us all with her selection of prizes given out to the Overall

winners! Next year proves to be even better with more participants inquiring about our

program....And the best surprise was Bob McEntee having the program for Eastern

Classic done and handed out since Region 16 will not be sending any out....It

was a good nite for all who attended!Some of our members will be going to Scottsdale as exhibitors and

some as spectators...Hope they do well and have a great time....Mr. Sutton will be

judging as well....We should have a good representation of WNY at Scottsdale...for

sure...

      No meeting in February, so stay tuned for details on our next meeting in

March....I am working on a interesting program.

Greetings fellow members, Happy New Year to all and I hope you had a great Christmas. Our newsletter details our upcoming High Score Banquet event and I hope many of you attend. We hope the changes made to our program will please the members. Our Christmas party held at the Tonawanda Sportsman Club turned out really  nice. It is a great place and the food was very good. We hope to have some other meetings held there in the future. 

Now that the snow has arrived, I only hope it remains manageable. We don’t need any snow storms. The horses seem to enjoy going out in it and rolling in the snow, probably making snow angels! Show season will be here before we know it and the little time off we have will soon be over. Looking forward to seeing you at the Banquet. A few surprises will be in store!
