TEXAS ASSOCIATION
SPONSORS SUCCESSFUL SHOW
In January, 1968, the Texas Walk
ing Horse Breeders’ Association out
lined projects for the year. Our mem
bers were enthusiastic in their sup
port of President Jim Sears’ idea to
promote four new Texas shows this
year. Later we found that four new
shows require more legs than we
have. We did find that our group
could and did work together to spon
sor one good show.
On October 18 and 19, members
of the Texas Association hooked up
the trailers and headed south to
Rosenberg, Texas to have Reid Es-
tess judge our horses. Mind you,
Rosenberg is a little town without a
resident member of the Texas Walk
ing Horse Breeders’ Association -
completely neutral ground. The es
tablished barns were well represent
ed and we also had folks who had
not shown a horse all year. The
classes were filled with good horses.
All we lacked was a crowd; the fel
lowship was great.
Mrs. John Sharp provided beauti
ful music while Jimmy Hooten acted
as announcer.
Two Louisiana barns could not at
tend; however, they did sponsor clas
ses for us. Those who sponsored

classes were Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Barn
well, Glen Loe, Dub Ivins, Mr. and
Mrs. John Sharp, Dr. and Mrs. J.
Byron Landress, Mr. and Mrs. Rex
Frazier, Cypress Acres, Mr. and Mrs.
Lawrence L. Bush, and Dr. and Mrs.
Ed W. Taylor.
Mr. and Mrs. Jim Sears were hosts
for the after-the-show party at which
Jack Handford, Caulkie LaBlanc and
J. E. Haynes entertained.
We are all proud to have been a
part of this successful show that ten
months ago was only an idea.
Results of this show can be found
in the Horse Show Results section
of this magazine.
