Halloween in Marietta Ohio : Jim,
   Thank you so much for attending the horse show in Marietta and taking all those great pictures. You did a fantastic job. I owned a photography studio a few years back and took portraits. I was never able to do action shots, and as well as I know horses, I could never capture them like you did. I hope you will come again next year and shoot one of our open point shows with evryone all decked out in their show clothes. We have a big turnout for those shows with many people and horses from about 10 or more counties.
  Pioneer City Riding Club will hold elections in December for new officers and a new show committee will be formed. The new committee will issue dates for next year after getting approval from the fair board. The club usually has about 6 point shows, and one or two fun shows.
                    Hope to see you next year, Ray Sams (current president, PCRC
