Re: National Western Stock Show 2004 Evening of Dancing Horses
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I also will be there as I am taking care of the Starfire horses while Beth and Sandy are at the show. My friend Beth will be going with me, she is the new owner of Starfire Arend and I know she is looking forward to seeing her boy who is still at Starfire being trained. We will be going to the show one evening not yet sure which one. On another note Ginny Cowles of Los Trigos has made a series of bronze figures of fjords, most include a child she calls Alice. They are really delightful and are on display at a Santa Fe gallery. For those of you who don't know Ginny she has about 14 fjords and breeds a couple of mares each year. Her stallion is King Gjestar II. Ginny is closer to 80 than 70 and still rides often on her ranch in the Pecos area of NM. Holiday Greetings to all on the list.

RE: National Western Stock Show 2004 Evening of Dancing Horses
This message is from: Gail Russell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all, Just to let you all know that my husband Jim (Halverson) and I will be there. Maybe we will see you there. So far, I think we will be staying until the 25th...have not got departure arrangements made yet. We arrive on the Amtrak train in downtown Denver about 7:15 PM on the 20th. The beauty of Amtrak is that one arrives downtown. We are taking the California Zephr.with a room booked. We will stay in the Marriot City Center hotel (a block from the station) and take buses and cabs to the stock show. (A friend of mine who lives in Denver tells me the car rental prices at that time of year are sky high because of the demand for them by skiers and the bus schedules look pretty good to me anyway.) We have tickets to the dancing horses for Thursday the 22nd, and for the Draft horse show the next night. We may go to the rodeo on ensuing nightswho knows. If you want to stay at the Marriott City Center the cheapest reservations are available thru a stock show special. Go to the plan your trip section of the national Western Stock Show site.and go into the part where it shows Marriott as hotel sponsor of the show. Attempt to book a reservation online. It probably will not workbut somewhere in there, there is a code that you can use when making the reservation over the phone. I think it was stch. The room was $89. Other places they seem to be double that. It may be that this is a lousy roomthat they reserve for these specials...but it is better than I could find thru all the other sites...hotels.com and the Marriott's own online site. Apparently the Angus folks are staying there too...with whom I would expect Fjord people to fit right in. If you want to stay away from the center of the city the hotels are cheaper. I chose this because the transport to the show seemed easier. Get your evening tickets soonthe best ones were already gone when I reserved a week ago. Hope to see you there. If you want to know which section we are sitting in for the show...e-mail me privately and I will dig out my reservation. Gail http://www.theresgottobeapony.org/pony.htm The dates for the evening performances are January 21st and 22nd, 2004. We will be moving the horses into the National Western Events Center the evening of Jan. 20th..com
National Western Stock Show 2004 Evening of Dancing Horses
This message is from: Starfirefarm [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello Everyone, The Evening of Dancing Horses at the National Western Stock Show is going to be a little different this year. It's going to be a story, called There's Got to be a Pony acted out with a kind of equestrian operatic feel. The Norwegian Fjord Quadrille will be performing one act in the program. Here is a url to explain the program and, if your interested, you can get to the National Western website to purchase tickets online. http://www.theresgottobeapony.org/pony.htm The dates for the evening performances are January 21st and 22nd, 2004. We will be moving the horses into the National Western Events Center the evening of Jan. 20th. We, as usual, will be busy with preparations, but if you come to Denver on those dates, do come by our stalls for a visit. We'd love to see you there!
