Millarville Saddle Sores

(Page 6)
 On a cold January 29th the Millarville saddle sores gathered in the Millarville hall to hold our annual public speaking competition. This is held every year for the members of 4H to Achieve. The club congratulates the winners; in the juniors 1st - Aimee Michaelis, 2nd - Callie Biddle, intermediates 1st - Juliannne Uchitil, 2nd - Shaelynn Brogden and in the Seniors 1st - Brittney Macdonald, 2nd - Lindsey Ranks. Thank you to AltaLink for sponsoring this event.
February has been a very busy month in 4H too. We learned lots about our horses when Pat Stock came out on February 5th and did Horsemanship with us. We had many great opportunities with our horses through our awesome clinic.
Our club gathered at the Millarville racetrack to have our winter workshop and our Gymkhana the following day. I can tell you our horses were sure tired after the gymkhana. Let's just hope we have nicer weather so our horses can get more in shape. The winter workshop project of 2011 was a salt block holder made out of tires donated by Millarville Motors and the other supplies were donated by Rowe Water Systems and the Macdonald Family for coordinating it all, thank you so much.
February 18th to 20th was the Junior Winter Bonanza Camp near Water Valley and February 25th to 27th was the Intermediate camp so this has made for a very busy month. We are looking forward to March as we have lots of riding events planned with the onset of spring (we hope).
Millarville Saddle Sores would also like to thank Sears for there generous grant to our club.
