We're pushing up against the end of summer already! Hard to believe all of the events that folks work so hard all year for are either just ahead, happening now, or done for another year. Folks have been running hard down the road to rodeos, cu ngs, reinings, team ropings, horse shows, cow horse, and ranch horse events while penciling in me to take a ride and tap into a li le R & R. All this ac vity means that the Rocky Mountain Breeders Assoc (RMBA) will wrap up their Ranch Horse Compe on circuit with the final show August 17th. Followed the next day by an Open Horse Show that offers classes approved by the SouthWest Montana Mini Circuit (SWMMC). Both shows points will be included in the respec ve associa on's Year End High Point races. The Open show will offer High Point Awards for the individual show, as well. These shows are open to anyone, memberships are not required, nor are horses required to be registered with any breed associa on. While the RMBA will be shaking off the horse show dust from their boots, there are s ll two more events coming up. The Montana Breeder's Group sale, sponsored by the RMBA, is slated September 14, 2019, at the fairgrounds in Great Falls, Montana. There are sure to be some terrific horses to select from, no ma er what you are looking for. The sale catalog will be up soon, check our FaceBook page or our website frequently to keep abreast of sale ac vity. The last event of the calendar year will be the Annual Mee ng and Awards Banquet. This is the large, full membership mee ng where all members and interested persons are encouraged to a end. Members can run for an office as some of the directorship terms are expired; volunteer for one of the commi ees which help shape and create the shows, Stallion Service Auc on, clinics, horse sale support, and banquet among other things; or help gain addi onal sponsorships. The associa on is widely diverse and offers a great selec on of ways to par cipate whether you're a breeder, enjoy laid back shows, or just enjoy a horse associa on where you can be ac vely involved. The RMBA has it all! One thing we all share is our love of a good horse. The Quarter Horse world was saddened to learn of Jeff Capps' stallion, Kit Dual, being laid to rest. Sired by Dual Pep and out of Pre y Li le Ki y by Smart Li le Lena, the fancy sorrel AQHA stallion was foaled on March 25, 1994. As a performer, he earned a total of $251, 791, in the cu ng pen. As a sire, he had 194 money-earners with earnings totaling $3.2 million as of early August. He had recently injured his back and, despite treatment, was not improving. In the best interest of Kit Dual, they laid him to rest on August 3, 2019. Our Condolences to Jeff and all who had the opportunity to work with this stallion throughout his life me.
