ribbon presenters, gate personnel,
runners, set-up and tear down help,
flag presenters for the Saturday

and a scribe. Although we are a small
show, it still takes as many volunteers
to run as a large show.
We ask that if you have a break
in showing, a free session to give us,
or family and friends who can help, it
would mean a great deal. PLEASE BE New club member Alex Crippen and her half-Andalusian

NWAHA Newsletter March 2006
By Cyndy Stephens Winchell
In this monthly column, professional
horse trainer Cyndy Stephens-Winchell
will be answering questions about
training, showing, clothing, and grooming
techniques.
You open the mail and there it is, the
show premium! Your first thought? Show
season is upon me, where did the time go?
What needs to be done? Well, here is a
good place to start.
I find that preparation more easily
accomplished if you break it done into
several pieces. I’ll list them briefly here
and would be happy to provide more
detailed explanations in future
newsletters if you would like to hear
more about a particular topic.
1) Your tack - Do you have show
tack? Although clean working tack is
probably sufficient for schooling
shows, if you plan to compete in
regional breed shows, open shows, or
head to Nationals, the extra investment
in show tack will likely be worth your
while.
Does your current tack need to be
cleaned, repaired, or replaced? Having
clean, shiny tack or attractive and colorcoordinated tack and outfits makes for a
polished, finished and proud look in the
show ring. Remember, this is your chance
to strut your stuff; make every moment
count!

2) Your clothes - Make sure your apparel is
appropriate for your chosen disciplines. If
you show in more than one discipline (ie.,
halter, western, English, driving), you will
likely need different styles of shirts, pants,
chaps, boots, breeches, blouses, and hats
for each. Don’t forget the small touches
such as gloves and brooches if they are
called for in your event.
If you’re not sure what’s in style, check
high-caliber shows, IALHA magazines and
even other breed magazines for current
trends. This past year I was complimented
many times on my outfits, which were
made by a friend of mine in Washington for
a fraction of the cost I would have spent
retail. If you’d like her name and contact
information, just call me or send me an
email, and I’ll pass it along.
3) Your horse - Is it clipped and bathed,
with clean blankets, hoods, etc.? Be sure to
be steady and solid while preparing for your
division of showing. A good hair coat can
take several months of daily grooming and
careful attention, but it can certainly pay
off. Presentation of a clean, shiny, well
groomed horse will catch the judge’s eye
(as will an unkempt one!). Show with pride
and confidence - trust me, it shows clear
across an arena.
4) Your trailer - Is everything
packed? Make yourself a checklist. On
this list, break everything down into
sections, a) general working tack, b)
halter, c) western, d) English, e) driving,
etc. After preparing your checklist,
mark your items off as you pack or load
them. Right down to the tables, chairs,
safety
pins,
and
hoof
picks.
EVERYTHING!
Remember two very important things:
1) Leave your training in the training
pen. If you and your horse have not
prepared in advance for something,
don’t start training for it at the show.
Stay steady in what you’ve already
prepared for together, and 2) Winners
do what losers won’t. Always go the extra
mile to work harder, be cleaner, and show
solid - Oh, and one more thing, never
forget to have fun and BREATHE.
Good luck to all this show season, and see
you in the show pen!
Message from the President
With all of the signs in the
garden of spring announcing its
arrival it brings to mind our breeds
shows here in the Northwest. The
dressage shows as well as our two
breed shows are on track for June
and August. Start working out with
your horse and plan to be in the
running.
The Pacific Rim High Point
series will again recognize points
earned at our two shows as well as
the PAALH show in July. We will be
tracking horses by one horse and
rider combo per entry. The points
earned by these partnerships will go
towards the series. The hardest part
right now is selecting another
beautiful set of prints as the award.
Check the club web site over the next
few weeks to view this year’s
selection. Attention breeders,
owners, or business: We are looking
for sponsors of the Pacific Rim High
Point awards. If you are interested,
please call me or drop an email to

NWAHA welcomes another new member: Connie Sowa!
My name is Connie Sowa. My husband Ed and I live
here in Chehalis, Washington most of the year because my
immediate family lives out here in Yelm. We also have a
vacation home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. My husband's business
interests are in Texas. So - we're kind of
spread out!
Born and raised in the South, I was
your typical kid with a Shetland pony back
in Georgia. My sister and I could get that
pony to do just about anything we wanted.
But when I out grew Smoky, my life took
another direction and I didn't get back into
horses until my 40's.
When I married Ed four years ago I was
able to "retire" from corporate life and
needed an active hobby! So I bought a bay
Morgan gelding and started taking riding
lessons. I soon discovered that what I really
wanted to pursue was dressage.
Unfortunately my adorable Morgan
wouldn't fit the bill, so I bought an elderly
Trakhner schoolmaster to continue my education.
As I progressed in my riding I began to entertain the thoughts
of competing - just for the fun and experience. My trainer
introduced the idea of looking at the Andalusian and so my
research began. In the meantime, I sold both of my horses to
really nice homes and began the search for my "dream" horse.
The love affair really took hold when I attended the IALHA
nationals in Fort Worth this past October! I was mesmerized by
the versatility of the Spanish horse. A whole world or possibility
opened up for me and I focused my search
solely on the Andalusian,
After three months of previewing
videos, reading internet and paper ads, I
stumbled upon Carla Shown's website
Moonstruck Meadows and found an 8 YO grey
PRE Andalusian gelding named Diluvio Mor I.
He was owned by Barbara Berquist of Mirasol
Andalusians in Minnesota.
We were in Santa Fe at the time that
Barbara and I started an email correspondence.
She sent me videos which I shared with my
trainer and told me Diluvio was spending the
fall and winter with her good friend Warren
Mather down in Hemet, California. Perfect!
My husband and I decided to drive back to
Washington via California so I could meet
Diluvio and find out if he was the one, which he is! He was
delivered to me two days before Christmas!
So, Diluvio and I are getting to know each other! Our goal
this year is to develop our partnership and shoot for the Go For
Baroque Show
A sincere thank you to the Andalusian owners who have entrusted their horses to my care over the past
year. You have brought tremendous joy to my life, and I hope to return the pleasure many times over.
