Oh, we will definitely keep showing.  Definitely.  Just not at the county show.  Absolutely won't support that any more.  And I'll recruit as many kids away from it as I can to bring with me to the jackpots that are held the same weekend as the county show. 

Not true.  As I stated, I'm an educator.  I see the results and effects of peer pressure, both negative and positive every day.  EVERY DAY.  When BS like this happens, there are kids, really, really good kids, that have worked their tails off and just happen to not have a popular last name, they...

People on here keep saying "that's life".  Ok.  Yes, I agree and I get that.  I get people get promoted that shouldn't, and sales aren't fair.  I completely get it, AND I completely agree as well.  I'm 45 yrs old and I have seen my share of life and this stuff happen.  BUT, that absolutely...

Wow.  You're still completely missing the point.  P O P U L A R I T Y  C O N T E S T.  I still ask the begging question.  Why beg and market and say "we need more kids to participate", "we need more kids in the program", when the people making these statements know very well that they really...

I understand what you're saying and I understand that no-one "owes" my kid anything.  But just sit back for a minute and think about what you're saying and doing here.  I.E., step outside of the show world and put yourself in the position of 90% of the rest of the families out here who are NOT...

Just finished our county show.  Makes the top 3 of the most frustrating experiences I've ever been involved with.  No separate breed classes so anyone with an American was pretty much eliminated before they got there.  Lo and behold, top 3 were exotic.  We are fortunate to have a premium sale...
