2010 AEAS Schooling Horse Show

May 15, 2010

Waskatenau, AB --- The 2010 AEAS Schooling Horse Show took place on May 15th in the Waskatenau Arena. There were 40 participants who came to educate themselves to better present their horses and enjoy a ribbon awarding show. To Judge the Show and offer instruction was Lynn E. Danyluk and Amanda Klause Judged Trail Classes.

The point of this show was to teach those of interest what Judges expect from a Handler, Rider and Horse exactly how they are Judged. What most Judges are looking for in a handler?

Schooling Shows should offer confident building and encouragement. The Judge should be on hand to answer questions and provide education. There are so many positive things about showing a Horse and sometimes that gets lost in the whirlwind of preparing and is forgotten by general public, spectators as well should be encouraged to come and watch and learn. As the Riders had the opportunity to ride with music, which took the edge off both riders and handlers. The Show had 57 classes to choose from and all ages of human were welcome! The show was designed to be relaxed, yet challenging.

Ribbons were outstanding from Hodges Ribbons, beautifully designed with the logo of the AEAS. (Top Six) (Best Show) with Trophies for the Breed Classes, Including Ponies -Measured Up Awards! Sponsored Gifts from Science Pure Nutraceuticals.

There are many issues that surround the health, care and public matters. There is a strong effort that goes into entering a Show Arena and it is important to know WHY. Ms. Danyluk has several discussions on these matters and how they actually affected the way the parties showed. Ms. Danyluk also pointed out being there is so much money and time put into Showing Horses the participants need to know what they have to improve on and what is satisfactory. It seems pointless if the Handler continues to make the same mistakes and is not clear on what to improve on, or what to work on for future shows.

There was also a moment for SHOWCASE of different breed, which was the stunning Peruvian Horses known as the Champagne Horses – Tanya MacKee demonstrated the smooth ride and the cadence on a soundboard. The ability to hold a glass of bubbly and be able to drink it in the end.

The Alberta Equestrian Awareness Society Honoured Two Horses during the show – these awards were to recongise horses that had stories that stood out from tipical horses and usual stories. The horses had to of attended the Show, but not necessary be participating in any classes. There are many special Horses out there, that have done some really unique and remarkable things. So the AEAS is giving these horses a chance to wear the a Ribbon of honour and respect they so deserve.

The 1st Honoury Award went to The Black Adidas – who saved Ms. Lynn E. Danyluk’s life, during a accident. The 2nd went to a Pony named UTAH owner Kaylie of 6 years old, a chestnut gelding with frosted Mane and Tail a Northern Horse Show Icon . Kaylie Mccullough had broke this little wonder herself and rides him just as collected as any adult. They have several stories of being trusted and true friends and the AEAS deemed him as a Little Horse rather than Pony!

In the world of horses each breed offers a special something, it was a delight to witness such a rare moment and learn of this special protected bloodlines. During the AEAS Ride for the Cure of Cancer in New Brook, June 12th, 2010 Tanya MacKee hopes to join us.
