Shake it Nita!
Voted Best Cheerleader at Interstate
Hot stuff

And I'm not just referring to Lesa Bland! Temperatures were more than 100 degrees at State
Finals 08 in Wenatchee -- quite a contrast to the spring show's snow. Riders and horses were
dripping sweat -- except for those locals who knew to be prepared. They were able to keep
their cool by wearing Cooling Vests. Was that an unfair advantage? Nah...west siders were
still No.1 in many events.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Hi fellow PSHA members,

It looked like spring had sprung a week ago and we had a wonderful week of sunshine here on the west side of the
mountains. I had my arena all worked and ready to ride in and then it started raining again and hasn’t stopped. We may all be
traveling to the east side for a while unless Mother Nature decides to help us out.

There are a few things I want to remind us all about as the season gets rolling here, first of all make sure you have
paid your
current year membership dues
(your times will not count until dues are paid).  If you are a team captain make sure that all
of the members of your team have paid their dues or your team times will not count.  Also remember we all have membership
numbers now and they can be found on the PSHA website and the show chairmen should have a copy at shows as well.
Make sure you fill that in when you sign up at the shows. This is a good way to track if you have paid your current dues
because if you are not on the list with a number then the PSHA treasurer has not received your dues yet.

The second thing I would like to
remind us all to do is help out at shows, we are all volunteers putting on the shows
and many hands (and feet) make the load lighter for everyone. Also if you see someone new at the shows make sure we help
them out and explain how things work and make them feel welcome.

If you are a
senior in high school there is still time to get your application in for one of the scholarships that PSHA gives out
each year and you should contact Lesa Bland if interested (you can find her contact information on the PSHA webpage
patterenedspeedhorse.com/officers) . You need to get it in asap though because the deadline is coming up in mid may.

We have purchased some
car window decals with the PSHA logo on them and are selling them for $5.00. You can contact
Laura Plagerman  (
llplagerman@hotmail.com) if you would like to have one.  These decals are classy and would be a good
way to proudly display that you are a member of this wonderful organization. It would be really cool to get these decals out
and advertise PSHA. If you are putting on a show and would like to have some decals available at your shows for sale contact
Laura and she can send you some to keep at the sign up table that you can sell.

If you have any questions or comments please feel to contact me anytime and if I don’t have the answer I will do my best to
get you answers to any PSHA related questions you have.
Take care, be safe, and have fun,
Larry Plagerman 360-815-1499 or llplagerman@hotmail.com

STATE FINALS REPORT

Hi all, quick update on state finals.  We have received the rest of the age group
high point sponsorships.  They are Kirk
Weinz, Modern Sewer Rats, Larry Plagerman, Gamers, NVR, and Cozy Cove Orchards (Vince and Lesa Bland).
 
Thank You to all of you!!

I do have to make a correction to what I said last month.  I misunderstood my information about the saddle high point
sponsorship.  
Sue J. and Gabe Scharmac (not Holly as stated earlier) are working on getting the saddles sponsored by
BMW Northwest again,
but do not have a commitment as I said in the last letter.  Maybe someone could help them secure
that by going and buying a new BMW at that wonderful dealership and mentioning PSHA??  Also
Barb S. has brought in
some event sponsorships.  Thanks Barb!

Other than that I really have no news to contribute to this month, and I think you are probably tired of hearing me beg for
sponsorships.  So let me end with this—if you would like to help with the rest of the committee to put on this great show,
please let me know by email
(llplagerman@hotmail.com) or my cell number is 360-815-1561.  If I don’t happen to answer,
please leave a message and I will get back to you.  Sometimes tractors are loud and I don’t hear it ring.

Till next month---Laura

ANNUAL MEETING:


Hi there everyone! I am hoping you are getting out and enjoying the weather for being with the horses is the best place to be. I
have received some information about
Convention that will be held in Port Angeles the 25th - 27th of Oct. Here is the
info to get your room booked for all the fun.

Regarding the guestrooms and reservations, etc.........
Your attendees are welcome to make their reservations in 1 of 3 ways:

1. Call the Hotel directly @ 360-452-9215 (*Please refer to Patterned Speed Horse)
2. Call our Central Reservations, toll-free @ 1-800-RED-LION   (*Please refer to Patterned Speed Horse)

3.
Online @ www.redlion.com

   ~ From the Home page, fill out the information in the red "Welcome" box on the left. In the section asking for a special

PATT1025. Hit "submit" and this will bring you to the special block for Patterned Speed Horse and enable a
reservation to be made within the Group block.

Saturday we will have the General meeting, Saturday night will be the dinner and year end awards with a dance to follow. I
am not sure if we will do the Halloween theme this year or not. Please think about a basket for the silent auction. This money
raised goes to a wonderful fund that has helped out members in need or also to the scholarship fund.  They are always so
much fun to see what imaginations our members have. Then on Sunday we have the General rules committee that does the
Judges and Timers clinic for the year. I hope you all are planning on attending this wonderful event!

Well that is all for now, please starting getting your rooms order since this pays for your big meeting rooms for the meetings

JUNIOR NEWS

Way to go Juniors at the Cascade Region Prize ride!  They held a bake sale and raised $140.  In addition to baked goodies,
there were also handmade duct tape tote bags and horsey décor hand towels that were for sale.

The junior raffle notebook is up to 4 items!  I haven't heard from any juniors in the other regions-please contact me if you
want to sell raffle tickets and how best to get a notebook to you.  WE NEED SEVERAL MORE ITEMS.  So far we have a
fleece tied blanket, personalized frame, horseshow wine rack, and a horseshoe candle holder.  All juniors please practice your
requesting skills to get more items for the raffle notebook. We need at least 6 items total, more will be welcomed.

Once you have procured an item it, I need information to complete the donation sheet.
Please send me (via email):

•picture of item

•name of person who donated item

•contact person of the junior that got item donated, contact number and/or email region


This will be a great way for Juniors in all areas of the state to fundraise toward their shirt item this year, as well as help for
sponsoring an event at state and to support our wonderful Princess Kortney.

Send in ideas for Junior t-shirts.  I can make things happen, but I don't consider myself the creative type.  

Thanks so much,

Karina Heiting-Sogge, Jr advisor

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT

Howdy all,

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude and congratulations to
Trina Bland on an amazing job putting together the Prize
Ride on May 4th. The weather must have appreciated all her hard work too, as it was a gorgeous, warm and sunny day.
There was a huge turnout, and lots of smiling riders.
Trina and Dawn Renee’ worked their butts off, and Cascade Region
owes them a huge collective thank you for all their hard fundraising efforts. The taco feed was amazing.

It is the members that volunteer to take on these events time and time again, the people that go out and obtain or provide
donations, the ones that help set up, clean up, bring potluck food, and work these events that provide us with the awards that
our members win every year. Please think about that when you collect a check or win nice awards at the end of the year. And
please take the time to appreciate the few members that continue to show up at the monthly meetings. It takes a ton of work
and hours to plan these fundraisers, shows, times-keeping, reporting, and physical work to keep this region going. Please
consider the many ways that you can help contribute in any way that you can.

And again, I am so proud of our
junior’s and Karina Sogge for their awesome job at the bake sale during the Prize Ride. So
many of them provided awesome treats and worked the booth all day. They continue to do the Cascade Region proud.

Important dates coming up for the month of May:

  • PSHA show this weekend, May 18th-19th at the Green River Saddle Club in Auburn.
  • PSHA show May 25th-26th at South Seattle Saddle Club in Maple Valley.
  • Cascade Region meeting at Gloria Restaurant in Maple Valley this Tuesday, May 21st at 7:00.

Sincerely yours,
Terela Jarvis
