SSA for 2010
Dodge County Horseman’s Association
After much discussion, debate, and soul searching at our September meeting, the members present decided to suspend our Benefit Stallion Service Auction & Futurity at this time. We have had ten very good and successful years, a whole decade of horse folks helping people in need, but in light of the present economy and horse population situation, the program “will be put on the back burner”. When the horse industry and economy improve, we can review the situation again. DCHA will have a Weanling Futurity Class at our show in August 2010 for the babies from this year’s auction, and will still run our Open Stakes classes at the show. The Tack Swap will still be held on February 7th 2010 at the Juneau Community Center, with our “Famous Breakfast” and we will still have a Silent Auction Fundraiser and select a Beneficiary for the proceeds. We may even expand the Auction, with the help and generous donations from the Horse Community. Stallion owners may still promote their Stallion by donating a service, mare care, or some other arrangement to their liking. Trainers, or anyone in the “Horse Service” industry, you too could donate services, products, time, etc. to our Auction. Anyone and everyone is encouraged to donate, or come and be a bidder! We will try to promote donors as much as and anywhere we can. DCHA would like to thank all of the Stallion Service donors, some of whom have been with us for all ten years, without your generosity this great Benefit would never have been possible. Mare owners who bought services also get a big round of applause. The Wisconsin State Horse Council was also a major supporter of the Benefit SSA by granting us sponsorships to use for expenses and part of the paybacks. And who could forget Colonel Bob Wedel, who always kept his Auction calendar open for us every first Sunday in February. Bob always kept the Auction fun and interesting! And finally, to all the volunteers who “made it work”, especially Diane Sackett, Kevin & Jenny Juliuson (SSA) and Jan Pieper (Tack swap) who have been involved from the very beginning. Thanks to all! See you next February !
Sincerely,
Lori Helmer

SSA Committee Chairperson Needed!
In order for DCHA to continue to have successful Stallion Service Auctions, we are in need of a current DCHA member to step up and chair the SSA committee.
This person's responsibilities would include selling ads for the catalog, compliling stallion information, and getting catalog info to the newsletter editor for printing and posting online.
There will be additional DCHA members to help out with this project, so don't worry that you would be doing everything yourself, but we do need someone to head this project.
Any current DCHA member that is interested, please contact Kevin Juliuson at (920)928-3714 or email kjclosequartrs@powerweb.net.

Ranch Show – by Diane Sackett
The successful July show was a very nice show despite the rain downpour at 5am. That might have kept some people from coming as the crowd was less than I expected after the numerous calls and emails I fielded prior to the show. We had competitors drive up from Missouri to come and compete for national points!
I want to thank everyone that helped with this show. Crystal Creek Riders showed up in force to work the show, DCHA provided help also. The rules and paperwork for American Ranch Horse Association is a lot to abide by but there was very little grumbling from anyone, and I am still receiving compliments from spectators that they really enjoyed our show and hope it will be held again next year.

Camp Pow Wow - by Diane Sackett
Crystal Creek Riders visited Camp Pow Wow in July. The horses visited too! Camp Pow Wow is a camp for disabled or handicapped youth. Many of the youth never have a chance to be near a horse much less ride one!
The excitement builds all week as the counselors prep them for the horses to visit. Over 30 brave riders usually needed some help to mount up, some needed a counselor to ride with them to keep them in the saddle. There is such excitement as they actually ride a horse! The horses bring out the best of the youth. One girl that never talks or socializes ‘talked’ her whole ride, others found their courage to pet a horse. The highlight of the evening for me was after the group photo one young boy came over to my horse and stood next to him, gently stroking his muzzle, and then laid his cheek alongside of the horse nose and said “thank you” in a quiet voice. Priceless.
We had 6 horses for the honorable duty of carrying the riders on a short trail thru the woods and camp. Stretch, Mister,(courtesy of Diane Sackett) Sonny, Bingo, (courtesy of Barb and Gary Cross) Gold, (courtesy of Karen Meekma and handled by Lori Helmer) and Clint (courtesy of Elaine Gauthier) were very loved and praised by all the riders, including the counselors! Thanks also to the extra handlers for assisting riders to mount up and stay in the saddle - Kathy Gunderson, Tina Conley, Darlene Woulle, Karen Reider, Jan Pieper.
It was for sure an evening of rewards for everyone involved.
................................................................................................................................................................
