Sponsorship
Committee: Sara
Petermann
Hi
everyone, it's that time again! I am
working on a letter to go out to all of last year’s sponsors asking them to
re-up. If any of you prefer to contact the sponsors you signed up in previous
years please let me know as soon as possible. Don’t forget to get your High Point sponsorship for this
year.
Your help is needed in re-signing sponsors. Signing up new sponsors is welcome and
appreciated by our club. - Sara
Trail Ride Committee: Leanna Rhodelander
Check
out the PTSC
Trail Riding page for the rides we have planned so far. If anyone can think of any places to go on
our rides send an email to Leanna.
June 21st is going to be here before
we all know it. It is going to be the
official first trail ride. I am
hoping to be out there around 1:00 (I have to work that day). Everyone is more than welcome to get out
there earlier and start riding if you would like. The trail ride will be from 1:00 to 6:00. Around 5:00 I would like to have a PTSC
dinner. So everyone bring 2 dishes to
the outing. If you have anything that
needs a refrigerator let me know and I might have room in mine. I am going to bring hamburgers and hot
dogs so let me know if you are coming and how many is in your family. Remember that it is a PTSC member’s only
trail ride. Anyone can come and join
that day if they would like. We will
have member sign up forms available. Please
call and let her know if you will be attending. Cell 816-258-1873 or e-mail
lroadlandr@aol.com. Hope to see you all there. Happy trails to all, Leanna

Trail Classes:
Joe Smith
I've been doing my homework and will have a
couple of trail patterns ready for the shows. Since we stated in our show bill that we would be following
AQHA Ranch Trail rules I thought I would send this group information on what
that exactly means. This class was
almost made for the area we have done trail in the last couple of years, now
known as the PTSC swamp.
A Ranch Trail class is designed to
show your horse’s willingness to perform several tasks that might be asked
during the course of a normal workday on the ranch. This class consists of 10
obstacles. Three are mandatory; 1) opening, passing through and closing a
gate, 2) dragging a log a short distance and 3) dismount, drop your bridle
and re-bridle, pick up all four feet and remount. The horse will be judged on
three gaits; the walk, trot and lope being performed between the
obstacles. Some of the other optional
obstacles may include crossing a water hazard, or a bridge, ground tying,
side passing, carrying a slicker from one spot to another, and roping a
stationary steer. Whenever possible, natural or realistic obstacles are
encouraged. Check out AQHA Rule
477(g) on Trail Classes at www.aqha.com .
Grounds Committee: Glen Ferguson
A big
thank you goes out to Helen and Bo Gilbert for keeping the grounds at the
arena mowed and trimmed. Chris and Leanna Rhodelander spent some time working
in the arena pulling back the sides and leveling the ground. Travis Hill went
up to the arena, or Lake Peculiar Tenderfoot, as we like to call it, and
begin cutting a trench to help with the drainage of the excess water. He was only able to cut part of it out. We
will let the water drain off, and then come back and continue with the
trench. Hopefully our trail area will
be drained off and dry for the July show.... When you see these people please
tell them Thank you, they spent their time doing this for YOUR club. – Glen
PTSC Youth: Misty & Cheyenne
Ferguson
The PTSC
Youth group is active in youth activities, raffles, local community
activities, workdays and just having fun at the horse shows. President Cheyenne Ferguson reported at their
last meeting the youth talked about community service projects. They will be having a bake sale at Pleasant
Hill Feed. No date has been set as of
yet. They are also volunteering to help out at the horse shows. They will be having another meeting July 10th
at the Family Center at 6:00 pm before the next PTSC membership meeting. If you have any ideas for the PTSC Youth,
the webpage, or would like to help please contact Misty.
You can contribute to your
saddle club by being a board member or by participating in a PTSC committee
or by voicing your opinions and ideas at our meetings. Attend the monthly
meetings the second Thursday of the month at the Family Center in Harrisonville.
Be involved—it’s your club!
