Photo Gallery of the August 11, 2006 "Playing In The Mud" Show at Yorkton, SK.

On the evening of August 10, apparently the Yorkton arena received 4 inches of rain. Well, really, we have heard anywhere from 2 to 4 inches of rain.... The truth was, there was a lake where the arena should be when we arrived on August 11 to start our Ranch Cutting Classes at 9:30 am. Our durable SRCHA Secretary - Angela Moore - promptly hired a truck to suck off the water (several loads), everyone settled in for a good visit, and we got the show started around 2 pm. What else can you do except "cowboy-up" sometimes ? We continued on with the Ranch Cutting, then the Reining & DryWork and finished the Fencework for the Working Cowhorse just at dark.

It was fun !

	Youth competitor, Kaitlyn Skilliter of Hudson Bay riding Taras Leo Hank in the fencework of her Youth 14-18 Working Cowhorse Class. Her horse seems to be thinking "Okay, calf, you aren't getting away just because you're throwing mud in my face !" And he didn't...!
	Ken Anderson of Wynyard and JoAnne Vayro of Sonningdale visiting while they wait for the "waters to receed".
	Our good Judge, Doug McGonigal from Manitoba and his scribe working during the Ranch Cutting Classes, with Angela Moore in the background keeping an eye on them !
