To All Friends of the G&M Riding Club
I would like to welcome all of you to the 2015
G&M show season. This past year, we were saddened
with the loss of a very dear member, Kathy Croak. The
club has really rallied together to fill all the positions
Kathy had acquired through the years. Although it will
be hard to fill her shoes, I’m confident the team we have
will get the job done.
This year we will be adding some new flavors
to our horse shows. We will be offering a division for
both English and Western that has a money payback. We
tried this last year with our Open Gymkhana division and
it worked out quite well. We hope this adds some new
excitement like it did last year.
As always, I would like to conclude with we
need your support. We are always looking for new people
to join our board and help in the planning of our events.
Any help you can offer is so important for our continued
success.
Thanks to all members and sponsors for your
continued support and Good Luck to all exhibitors.
Sincerely,
Dave Samuels
G&M President
