Thank you to everyone who came out to day one of our final two shows and worked with us with schedule changes to make it a shorter day tomorrow. We have changed the start time to 9:00 AM to give everyone a little more time to get ready! We will also be doing the condensed halter pattern to try and keep everyone a little less wet. The pattern is posted below.

Hello everyone!
MD State Fair Welsh Show Update

As of right now 50 ponies are entered for the Welsh show, so we should have enough to make Gold if everyone shows up! If you have room on your trailer it would be a good idea to bring an extra pony or two to have a few more than 50 ponies in case someone doesn’t show up. You can look at class counts on horseshowing.com. If you are entered and don’t plan on coming please let Beverly or Meg Gill Peitsch know! Or if you want to come and aren’t entered let them know!
