"CONNEMARA HAPPENINGS" JANUARY 2013:
Exeter, NH: Sally Oxnard has sent this report regarding Equine
Affaire. Region 1 sponsored the ACPS Connemara booth at
Equine Affaire in West Springfield MA on November 8,9,10, and
11. We had the use of the Pop-up from the WEG booth, and videos
running on our large screen TV, and ACPS pamphlets, magazines,
and Region 1 and 2 fliers to hand out, as well as the Region
1 store of course. The agenda was jam packed with a breed demo
in the Coliseum on Sat at 11 AM (prime time) as well as a clinic
by Sarah McRae and a sport pony demo. The well choreographed
Breed Demo started with 2 stallions driving, Adirondack AHearne
(Rosenaharley Laurens x Hideaways Smitheranne) owned and
driven by Cindy Fletcher, and Baileys Irish Dream (Balius
Turlough x Beacons Siobhan) owned and driven by Pat Shields.
Then we brought on Fidelio III, (Quickly Ravary x Swing River)
a 19 yr old palomino gelding imported from France who is owned
and ridden in FEI dressage by Fern Feldman. Then the jumping
ponies arrived, including Aluinn Durango (Aladdins Denver
x Pattys Meredith) owned and ridden by Sarah McRae, Crib
Glass Bugle ( Aladdins Denver x Millpond Irish Wink) ,
owned and ridden by Shannon Wallman- Hatch, and Hohnhurst Madeleine
( Pattys Benedict x Hauptstutbuch Noerdlunds Madigan) ,
owned by Lori Decato Metz and ridden by Laine Metz.
The petting stall ponies which were much admired included the
stallions Harry and Dreamer, and various irresistible foals from
Drybrook Farm and Trum Searah farm.

Harwinton, CT: Pat Shields
has some happy news from DryBrook Farm. Pat says, I am pleased
and relieved to report that the all the 2012 foals from our farm
have been born and are doing well. It was year of fillies
we
had 3 in all, including one half-bred and two purebreds. Our
newest additions: DryBrooks Erin Lass, born July 7th, is a
beautiful bay with a star by our approved stallion, Baileys
Irish Dream out of Lasrachais Blue Oak Dunlaith, an approved
mare, and DryBrooks Beautiful Dream, a black buckskin with a big
star, born July 11th by Baileys Irish Dream out of Coastal
Tranquility also an approved mare. Pictures of foals were taken
when each of them was only a few days old.
