Thanks
to everyone for a successful annual horse show!
To
the Members of the NC Hunter Jumper Association,
It
is my pleasure to congratulate the Association on a job well done at the 36th
Annual NCHJA Annual Benefit Horse Show. The
week was full of summer fun, great hospitality, and fierce competition.
Our benefit show was successful in benefiting the Norah Morris Memorial
Scholarship and NC State College of Veterinary Medicine Scholarship Endowment.
Thank you to all who attended and supported our Association and
scholarships.
Many
volunteers put in countless hours of intense work into the planning and
execution of the success we had throughout the week.
Thank you all for your dedication to our horse show and our Association.
As
we look to grow and improve this Annual event in the years to come, the Board of
Directors and the 2011 Horse Show Committee is seeking your feedback from your
experiences’ at this year’s show. Please
