This message is from: "Sanders" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Today wrapped up the Sandpoint International Draft Show and it was a blast. Larry and Lyn Bo came down with their team Rukum and Skukum (sp?) and took second in the weight pull!!!
It was a percentage pull so it leveled the playing field, Bo's boys pulled 168% of their weight! The crowd loved them. Many, many people stopped by the barns to visit the fjords and hear more about them. A few people commented on remembering them from last year when Jennie gave the demonstrations all weekend. All in all, it was another giant leap for fjords at the draft show. We had the tri-fold information board there again to educate them on the breed. Rumors were saying fjords may actually be allowed to compete in the show next year, they are a great crowd pleaser - hope so. They moved the show into Sept so they wouldn't get rained on and it seemed to work. Congratulations to the Bo's - a job well done. Teresa Sanders Sandpoint, ID
