You guys are the greatest! When I walked around the skills course to talk with each volunteer judge and see some horses through the
skills, I could hear laughter from across the field. I so enjoy doing this fun, recreational, social drive. The drivers relax
and have fun driving their horses while I test them and their driving abilities.
The rain actually stopped FINALLY!!! We had Marsoe LaRose doing CAA Driver Proficiency Evaluations Friday (everybody passed) and then lessons Saturday and
Sunday and we had Barb Creager here with her Babette's Hat Works trailer, so the place was busy.
A big thank you to Carol and Frances Bowersock for jointly handling the duties of Safety Check judge(s)....they were a big hit with the
drivers, and with the aid of their highly specialized and technical equipment they found innumerable drivers trying to sneak watches onto
the Cross Country Course. I was SHOCKED! that Happ's drivers would try to cheat!!!! Unthinkable!!!!

- "Perfect 10 Bribes" ~ Anne Buckler, Diane Zmolek and Teresa Bron
