Dear Members,<br />
Presidents Message<br />
This cold weather certainly puts a damper on things, but I keep thinking<br />
Spring is just around the corner...keep plugging away!<br />
Kim <strong>and</strong> Harvey Rose had a great meeting at their house last month. Thank<br />
you both for really putting yourself out, as usual (really great food).<br />
We also had a very successful clinic in February with Tom Noone. Many<br />
thanks to Tracy Schlabach for organizing the whole thing <strong>and</strong> Mary Ann<br />
Burns for hosting it at her lovely farm in Odessa. Speaking for myself <strong>and</strong> my<br />
students, we all came away from the lessons with a new insight or feel with<br />
regards to riding the bend <strong>and</strong> thoroughness of the horse. The timing of<br />
h<strong>and</strong> aids to soften, then how the leg <strong>and</strong> whip support are used to create<br />
first forward movement, then more engagement. Tom was very articulate<br />
<strong>and</strong> detailed in his explanation of how to use the legs. He encouraged long,<br />
supple legs that could easily bounce off the horse, rather than grip. For all<br />
the people ho rode <strong>and</strong> watched, there were lots of little pieces in this gigantic<br />
puzzle that he helped put in place.<br />
Our next meeting is at Mary Ann burns on March 9th. We will show one of<br />
our new movies, recently purchased for our library.<br />
See you there...<br />
Joan<br />
P.S. Don’t forget the third schooling show at soaring Eagles on March 21st...<br />
May you have<br />
the luck of the<br />
Irish this year!<br />

The Treasurer's report was read. The treasurer reported a balance of $12,090.<br />

giving a gift to Bobby for allowing SDCTA to use her property for the show.<br />
The third schooling show will be held on March 21 at Soaring Eagles. Still needing judge.<br />
The clinic with Tom Noone at Mary Anne Burn's farm still has 2 spots left.<br />
New Business:<br />
The <strong>Dressage</strong> Among Friends show will be held the 1st weekend in May at the Fairgrounds.<br />
We are still needing a judge, maybe Axel Steiner, <strong>and</strong> TD. We are getting a covered arena,<br />

soon.<br />
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.<br />
