Monica from Sun Pony Ranch tells us that Boulder County Horseman's Association is interested in having us do a demo at their fun show in October (October 19) in Boulder (of course). Are we interested in doing this? I'm thinking yes, because many of you mentioned wanting to do the "right kind" of demo. This is a low key horse group, and it is called a "fun show" so it might just be the right venue for us. And we still have time to practice! Let me know if you're interested. If so, we'll need to get a proposal (simple is probably fine) to the Hospitaller to approve this as a demo. Although those other than the equestrians are not necessary at this demo, it might be even more impressive to have the right group of others come along with us. Not the standard demo people, but a well turned out Herald for instance, would be helpful. Also, since this would be an official equestrian activity, we would need to request the $50 insurance rider for the demo.
I'm not sure that I'll have a lot of time in September and October due to my school schedule. So if there is someone who is motivated about this activity, and would like to take the reins, so to speak, let us know! This will need someone to coordinate with BCHA and then communicate with the group about what is needed. We can work as a group at our practices to come up with a good schedule for the demo.
Let me know what you all think, and who would be interested in participating!
