Arizona
Plenty of sun, plenty of horses and plenty of cattle added up to plenty of fun at the 6th Annual Sherri Gilkerson Memorial Bridle and Hackamore Spectacular. Held at Casner Ranch in Temecula, California May 18-20, 2012, this show proved that excellent show management together with a spacious and beautiful venue, plus hard running cattle, will draw a crowd every time.
The Southern California Reined Cow Horse Association and the Arizona Reined Cow Horse Association sponsored the show. It was an action-packed weekend for everyone!
The herd work for the spectacular classes and the AQHA cutting classes took place all day Friday. Two cutting pens accommodated the cutters and spectacular participants. The Open Hackamore class began in the afternoon in a new scheduling strategy designed to ensure that classes finished at a reasonable time at the end of the day. The Grand Meadows evening ring-side social gave everyone a chance to kick back and tell tall tales about their cutting pen prowess.
Saturday’s action began bright and early with the reined and fence work for the spectacular competitors as well as the horse show classes. There was no rest for the wicked as each class moved along. As a result of this efficiency, everyone was able to enjoy the free awards barbecue at the end of the day sponsored by the Southern California Reined Cow Horse Association.
The action did not slow down on Sunday with the Big Horse Wine Country Classic horse show. This provided one last chance to run, turn, slide and dominate those cows in the cow horse pen.
“We are so pleased that this show is growing every year. It is a tribute to both the SCRCHA and the AzRCHA that this show provides a venue for the best cow horsers in the country to perform, and to do it all in honor of Sherri Gilkerson,” noted AzRCHA President Debbie Hotaling.
