July Paint Spots

By Jeri Stone When you get this issue of 'Paint Spots' the APHA World Show will be history and I hope in the August issue to have a list of people form our Zone with who did what at the show.

As many of you know Roger and Sally Saur had their tack room at the stable they work out of broken into and everything was taken from saddles, lounge lines to the refrigerator. About $25,000 worth of stuff was taken. If you have any information or know of people sell "cheep" Avila, Crates or Bob's saddles or other equipment contact Sally or Roger.

There are several more Paint Horse Shows that are now history for the year 2000. Inland Northwest Paint Horse Club's Spring Spectacular in Spokane was held at the newly remodeled Spokane Interstate Fairgrounds. They have ALL NEW stalls, warm up arena - new footing and by next year it will be covered. The annual Saturday night dinner was outstanding and lots of fun. This show featured National Snaffle Bit classes for the first time and they were well received along with their All Breed Futurities.

The Central Oregon Paint Horse Club's Hi-Desert Paint-O-Rama in Redmond, OR was a delightful show. They used the indoor dome arena at the Deschutes County Expo Center and it was unbelievably wonderful. What a great indoor facility! The club all worked together to make this show a well run and friendly show. They did a wonderful job in that everything was set up to make people feel like they had walked into a first class show - from the hospitality area to the fresh painted and well set up Trail Classes. This show was a four-judge show but offered one judge free for exhibitors.

Ashley Rogers is the proud mother of Monica Nichol born in April prematurely in Portland, OR. Monica weighed only 4 lbs. 7 oz. and had to stay in the hospital for a while. Jesse and Ashley were staying in Portland until they could return home with Monica.

Jeff and Amber Cabana of Homer Alaska have become proud parents of a little boy, Forrest Tucker.

Our condolences to Cody Schram who recently lost her father.

We want to wish a speedy recovery to Lauren Malberg of Alberta who will have surgery to repair an artificial lens, to Paul Collins who broke some ribs at a recent show, to Linda James of James Gang Stables who was badly hurt in a horse related accident at a recent Pinto Show and to Dr. Jock Geisy who recently had surgery.

Two of our Northwest Paint people are expecting new additions to their family in the next year - Chuck and Angie Bruner of Winlock, WA and Steve and Kristin Stump of Powell Butte, OR are expecting babies.

Andrea Miollis and her gelding, Barlinks Mr. Robin from Longview, WA have earned their APHA Youth Championship.

Chocolate Time owned by Roy Fordham & Lisa Gibert earned his APHA Championship at the Redmond, OR Show.

Other APHA Champions in Zone One are Barlnk My Te Macho owned by Kelly and Wendy Ross of Hines Creek, Alberta and Paticular Paige owned by Diane Strickland of Burney, CA.

Congratulations to all these owners and horses, it takes a lot to make an APHA Champion and you have worked hard to earn this honor.

Congratulations to the Oregon Bred organization on celebrating their 25th. Anniversary this year.

The Idaho Paint Horse Club has a Web Site at http://geocities.com/idahopainthorseclub/ In the June issue of Cascade Horseman there is a very good profile on a Northwest Horsemen that deserves the honor of being recognized by us all. Willi Mendenhall is a wonderful addition to our Paint Horse breed and his story is worth reading.

Just a note to all you Paint Horse breeders, showmen, trainers or enthusiasts out there. You do not know how hard it is to find you if you have not joined a Paint Horse Club in your area. There is no address or phone number where people can find you. I have quite a time finding people myself and I have all the directories etc. Take note JOIN A CLUB IN YOUR AREA.

In the Members Profile in the June issue of The Paint Horse Journal Antoinette Crisp Landvogt from Caldwell, ID was featured. She is the owner of APHA stallion, Simply Exclusive.

We were so sorry to hear that the Paxton Family is moving to Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Jill and Shannon will be missed on the Northwest Paint Horse circuit and by many of their friends.

They said they will miss their many friends here in the Northwest but Jill's husband has been relocated thus the need for the move.
