  • ABCCMM Inspection August 2015 Photos!

    All photos at the BC event by Shannon Ford, published on FACEBOOK.

    Dr. Kate Barcelos was in Canada presenting her paper at an Equine Conference and stayed on to complete another ABCCMM inspection, the second one in Canada!

    Dana Johnsen, USMMA Board Member at Large, organized an Open House around the event and Marchadors from Alberta and British Columbia joined in! Additional invitations and participation from people who wanted to see, meet and ride a Marchador. It looked like a great event.

    Kate also visited other breeders in Colorado, Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan before heading home to Brazil.

    ABCCMM inspection is a prerequisite for dual ABCCMM (Brazilian) registration. It is not required for USMMA registration.

     

  • Meet new board member Bill Dory

    Two new board members were appointed in July. Congratulations to Alessandra Deerinck, CA and Bill Dory, Alberta Canada! They replace Rox (Rogers) Hicks, who left the Board in 2015 and Laurie Klassen, our Secretary whose term will be expiring December 31, 2015.

    We asked them to introduce themselves to you, the members. This month please welcome and meet Bill Dory with his own written introduction.

    “How does searching for a saddle become costly. My wife Sandy had been considering purchasing one of Dana’s Sensation saddles. Dana suggested we could view one of her saddles in AZ. We scheduled a time, with some lady named Lynn, to look at her saddle. As we met with Lynn, saddle talk quickly became horse talk. Horse talk led to a ride.

    On our way home it became obvious, Sandy was determined to own a MM. Well one led to three, three led to six. Six led to a larger horse trailer, bigger truck to haul larger horse trailer, now more land is required. Obviously I wouldn’t have agreed to all this,if I didn’t believe in the breed.

    Horses that we own

    At this time we don’t have a farm name. We’re considering the following names:
    Merth
    Northern lights
    Sublime
    Your suggestions are welcome.

    I’m pleased to be part of the MM community. Everyone I’ve met in the MM community have been quality people. I’m excited on meeting other owners and introducing new people to the breed.”

  • Clinic Results from Jeff Bosley

    I had a great time meeting everyone and learning a lot at the clinic!  For those of you who attended, please take a photo of your horse with his or her ribbon if he/she earned one.  AND please, write down 1 or 2 things you learned during the clinic!  It would really be great to read!

    Lori Silcher, 4 Seasons Marchadores, MT, last year’s winner on her stallion, Baluarte Piry (Bali) was there at our Awards Banquet, so she was able to present personally the Lucas Guerra Award to the 2014 winner:  Flying Oaks, Rusty Parks and Flying Oaks Zodiac.

    This year we also had a special surprise adding cash awards for the Show Champion ($100), Champion Mare ($50), Champion Gelding ($50), and Champion Stallion ($50).  The cash awards this year were sponsored by Future Foal – Summerwind.  Next year, I plan to add to this concept for more or bigger prizes!

    The grand finale for the clinic classroom was Rusty Parks, a trainer, cracking bull whips atop a 3 year old Marchador mare, Flying Oaks Athena, who has just been started under saddle. about a month ago.  Now that speaks to the temperament of the Mangalarga Marchador!
