It's Time for the 3Rd Annual New England Novice Extravaganza! It’s time for the 3 rd annual New England Novice Extravaganza! WHERE: Knights of Columbus Hall, 10 Meadow Rd, Spencer MA WHEN: June 11th, 2016 TIME: Show starts at 9 am, hall opens at 8 am COST: $20 for Beginners, $25 for Intermediates, $10 if showing in Performance ONLY. $5 Late Fee for anyone entering after the entry deadline. SHOW HOSTESS: Amanda Reed LIMITS: I will be accepting up to 30 entries total on a first come, first serve basis. Due to the nature of the show, being learning-based and less competitive than the Open divisions, I would like to keep the show to around this size. A typical Open show in this area has 30-50 participants. Please get your entries in ASAP to guarantee a spot!! JUDGES: Shane Langbauer (CM/AR), Robin Roberts (Collectibility & Breed), & Lilla Correia (Performance and Breed) NENE is a novice model horse show designed for showers who are young, new to the hobby, or returning from a hobby hiatus. This is the perfect way to get into the competition without the pressure of facing seasoned showers. It is also a great way to learn more about the hobby, real horses, and how live shows work. Most of all, we strive to provide a fun atmosphere- because that’s the best part! GENERAL INFORMATION: ***The show hostess, judges, and show hall owners/managers are NOT held responsible for any property damage, theft, or injuries. Please try to not leave your table unattended. This is a small show and I do not expect any issues of the sort, but keep it in mind. *** – There will be a raffle! You may bring items to donate, but please keep them real horse or model horse related if possible. All proceeds will benefit the current and future years of this show! If there are door prizes (we got some unexpectedly last year) this means every entrant picks one prize until they have all been chosen. They will be chosen in a random order via slips of paper being drawn by a judge or show helper. *I MAY put aside a couple of items from the raffle for kids 10 & under, but this will depend largely on the amount and type of items donated.* – Show BEGINS at 9 am! This means we start judging the first classes! Please be prepared to have your models on the tables for the first classes of each division at least 5 minutes prior to 9 am. Also, please plan accordingly with regards to travel time. The hall will open around 8 am to allow for ample setup time. Early arrivals are acceptable but please no earlier than 7:45 since I will still need to do some setup beforehand. I will not rush people, but I would like to keep the show moving along at a good pace so we are not at the hall until the evening. – Placings are to 10th place in all divisions. Most of the flats will be custom commercial ribbons, but there are still some recycled BreyerFest flats, so those will be mixed in somewhere. In addition, all Sectional champs and reserves will receive handmade trophies and Divisional champs and reserves will receive handmade trophies and custom rosettes. Additional prizes (such as the Fun Class prizes) TBA. – LUNCH: Subway will come to collect orders around 10 am or so. For those who do not want Subway, feel free to bring your own food, or there are a few fast food places within a short driving distance. Lunch is not included in the show fee. – It is likely that everyone will have a full table (8 foot rectangular banquet table). There will be 22 entrant tables. However, I will be accepting up to 30 entries. If I need to downsize some people to half-tables, the Beginner entrants will be first, since Beginners generally bring a smaller amount of models. Please plan accordingly. Rotating models in and out of tubs all day can get confusing if you aren't a seasoned shower, so if you can, try to make sure all your models will fit in that space. If you would like to be seated next to a friend or relative, let me know and I'll make sure to put you together. – There may be models for sale, from the hostess, judges, Crop & Carrot tack shop, and potentially others. – This is NOT a NAN-Qualifying show. NAN cards earned in Open competition allow a model to compete at the National show. Models shown here will also not earn Regional (TRXC) qualifying cards as there is currently no novice year- end championship. – Results will be posted to www.regionxnation.com. – In the event that you need to cancel your entry, please let me know as soon as possible and you will be refunded in full up until the entry deadline. Cancellations between the entry deadline and the show will be partially refunded ($5 fee for last minute cancellation, just as anyone who enters during this period will be charged a $5 fee). No-shows the day of with no notice and communication will not be refunded. This means if you make absolutely no effort to inform me that you won’t be there. GENERAL RULES: – NO running in the showhall. This is absolute. – Any child under the age of 13 must be accompanied at all times by a responsible adult. I am not responsible for your children and neither are my judges. – Please do not bring young children who will not be showing unless they are quiet and well behaved. There is no “official” area for them to play safely away from the show tables. – No loud music, smoking, pets, or alcohol. – Do not touch anyone else’s models without permission. – Judges’ decisions are final. – Poor sportsmanship will not be tolerated. Multiple instances of this may result in you being asked to leave the show. – Have respect for everyone in the room; judges, the showholder, other showers, and their families/friends. – Most of all: Have fun!!! HOW DO I GET STARTED? NENE is a participant in the Region 10 Tag System. What’s that, you might ask? It is a number system that assigns each shower who participates in Region 10 shows their own unique 3-digit number. Showers use this number to make their show tags. I’ll explain that a bit more soon! WHERE CAN I GET A REGION 10 NUMBER? In order to get a number, you must apply by sending an email to Jackie Arns-Rossi at [email protected]. You only need to give her the name that will be associated with that number (if you’re a parent requesting one for your child, you’d send the child’s name). If you’ve shown already, but you don’t remember your number, email Jackie as well. Once she replies with your number, you need to make an account with the Region 10 Tag Manager. This is fairly simple and only takes a few minutes! After that’s done, fill out the entry form and put it in the mail, or email me a copy. If you do not have a Region 10 number, you will not be allowed to enter. Get your number FIRST. NUMBERS? TAGS? I’M CONFUSED! Once you have an account with the Tag Manager, you’re ready to enter your models into the system. This only needs to be done when you’re entering new models for the first time. Each model needs its own 3-digit number that will follow your own, like this: 123-456. The numbers you’ve assigned to your horses in the tag system and what is written on their tags needs to match. You need to have your models named, breeds assigned, finish (if it has been repainted or not) and gender assigned. Filling in the “Notes” section is not required, but you may find it useful to add a visual description or another identifying factor to help you remember which horse it is- this is particularly useful for anyone who is adding a large amount of models at once that were not previously named. The form in the system will ask for all of these fields to be entered. There will be a link at the top of the page that says “Add a New Horse”. You’ll enter the info into the form and choose “Save”. This will be the same each time. When you’re done adding models, you can select to print your entire horse list, or just some of them. Make sure you have all the ones checked off that you plan to show this time. I do not need your list prior to show day. When you make your leg tags, here is the information you need to have: breed, gender, finish, and Region 10 number on one side, and the model’s name and your name on the other. Please write clearly, or if you dislike your handwriting, the Tag Manager has an option to print tag labels. The most common size of tag is 1 inch. Larger is okay, but try not to go too large, and especially not too small! The judges will need to be able to read the info on the tag quickly. White is the preferred color of tag (it’s easier to read!), though if you only have colored ones, that is okay. WHERE CAN I FIND BREED INFORMATION? Information on horse breeds can be found in books, or online. It is important to have a picture of a horse in the breed you choose for it (and sometimes the color), along with the basic information about the breed’s features, what colors it comes in, and what it is used for (racing, dressage, work in fields, etc.).

  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • Programs That Extend the Useful Lives of Horses
    PROGRAMS THAT EXTEND THE USEFUL LIVES OF HORSES: Supply and demand — they are the ingredients that form the foundation for near- ly all successful business models. Markets are sound and profitable when there is a healthy balance between the two. The theory holds true for the horse market as well. Often, however, owners may not be aware of the demands that exist for horses that may be “unwanted” by some, but desired by others. The purpose of this chapter is to show some of the many programs already in place by horse breed organizations and other groups, in which horses are needed by participants. From trail riding enthusiasts to horse show exhibitors, people are searching every day for horses that fit their lifestyles and interests. By understanding the activities encouraged by breed organizations, owners of some unwanted horses might find a good fit, and a good market, among people seeking horses for organized shows and rec- reational events. Following is a listing of some of the most popular programs and activities underway today and some true-life stories of unwanted horses that developed into champions. Competitive Horse Shows: Nearly all horse breed associations offer opportunities for friendly competition. Although a horse may be retired or reaching advanced years of maturity, horse shows offer outlets to help keep the horse active and involved. The registries offer several different disciplines with classes ranging from leadline to saddle seat pleasure to barrel racing. A horse owner can often find a way to keep horses involved for a long time in the variety of disciplines offered in the showing world.

  • High Horses Horses, Class and Socio-Economic Change in South Africa1
    Chapter 7 ❈ High Horses Horses, Class and Socio-economic Change in South Africa1 ‘Things are in the Saddle and ride mankind.’ 2 n the first half of the twentieth century there was a seismic shift in the Irelationship between horses and humans in commercial South Africa as ‘horsepower’ stopped implying equine military-agricultural potential and came to mean 746 watts of power.3 By the 1940s the South African horse industry faced a crisis. There was an over-production of horses, exacerbated by restrictions imposed by the Second World War, which rendered export to international markets difficult.4 Farm mechanisation was proceeding apace and vehicle numbers were doubling every decade.5 As the previous chapter has shown, there were doomed attempts to slow the relentless mechanisation of state transport. As late as 1949 the Horse and Mule Breeders Association issued a desperate appeal to the minister of railways and transport to stall mechanisation and use animal transport wherever possible.6 Futile efforts were made to reorientate the industry towards slaughtering horses for ‘native consumption’ or sending chilled equine meat to Belgium.7 Remount Services had been transferred to the Department of Agriculture, a significant bureaucratic step reflecting the final acknowledgement of equine superfluity to the modern military. As the previous chapter discussed, the so-called ‘Cinderella of the livestock industry’ had to reinvent itself to survive.8 A new breed of horses thus entered the landscape of the platteland: the American Saddlebred.9 Unlike the horses that had preceded them, these creatures were show horses. The breed was noted for its showy action in all Riding High 07.indd 171 2010/05/31 12:04 PM Riding High paces, its swanlike neck with ‘aristocratic arch’ and its uplifted tail.
