ER Spitfire and John Swales tie for 1st place standings in Open Ranch cutting at the CHATAUGUA horse show on June 14th in Okotoks. Vance Kaglea and Smoken Pep splits 1st with 142 points.

We enjoyed a visit with our New Grandson Kashdon. Sitting in the saddle with Gradma at the Blacklands ARCHA show in May.

We are so proud of Spitfire’s performance at the Canadian Supreme last weekend.  Spitfire was shown by John Swales in the Canadian Supreme Snaffle Bit Futurity plus the Open Snaffle Bit Futurity.  In a field of some of the best three year olds in Western Canada that numbered 32 in the class he came out of the herd in both divisions with a 147 leading score.  In the reined work he finished third in the Canadian Supreme division and sixth in the Open division.  On the fence he was 13^th and 18^th respectively with a tough cow to work.  John guided him to an aggregate placing of fifth in the Canadian Supreme and 6^th in the Open.  His earnings increased by $3800 and now has close to $6000 won in two Futurities.

Marci and her reining mare ER Sugar Nugget have taken up working cow horse.  After working buffalo under the tutelage of John Swales her and Sugar Nugget found out that they both loved working cows.  Marci showed in two weekend shows at ARCHA in the rein and box class and then entered Rocky Sapergia’s Ride and Slide show in Okotoks.  Her and Sugar Nugget won Reserve Champion in the Rein and Box class.  The Rein and Box class is a new addition to ARCHA for members that want to do dry work and box on the short wall without having to go down the long wall.  We sure appreciate the support from John and other members of ARCHA who are so helpful and such great people to show with.
