2009 Fair is Complete. What a great year!! So awesome. The web host we use is shutting down and I am working on transferring the website to a new host. There may be times over the next few weeks that the site is not available. Please be patient. Horse Project Members-please do not start new record books or horsemaster books as there will be changes made to both this year. |
