24 - February - 2023 www . wsca . org From the Committees
Happy Valentines Day !
How is it February already — this winter is flying by ! Here is a little bit of what I have been up to !
At the end of January I was invited by Jordan — Ms . Horsemanship , to at-tend the Trail Dusters Saddle Club Banquet in Alberta , MN . While I was there it was so fun to explain to the club the process of running for WSCA Queen and sharing my personal story . Thank you for the invite Trail Dusters !
I have been extremely busy with the Minnesota Valley Riders Saddle Club banquet committee , preparing our year-end point totals and planning our banquet that is going to be held the second weekend of February . I am real-ly looking forward to seeing all of my MVR club members , it seems like we don ’ t see much of each other during the winter months . I am also a co-chair of the MVR royalty committee , and I got to spend an afternoon interviewing our 2023-2024 MVR Royalty can-didates . Being a role model for young riders has always been a passion of mine , and listening to the young ladies that I have watched grow-up interview and carry themselves with such poise and grace made my heart happy .
The court and I had a blast at the St . Paul Winter Carnival Parade . All of us were able to attend , and even though it was a bit chilly , we all had a great time sharing with spectators the love we have for WSCA . Stay tuned next month for pictures of this event !
As for this month , it will be filled with fun and excitement . I received a message from a young 4-H ambassador who requested I come speak to the Minnesota 4H Winter Round-Up in Lanesboro , MN . I will be making the trip to the event on February 5th to share my story on my journey to the WSCA Queen title . I hope that my story will inspire the youth in our horse community to work hard , and follow their dreams until they become a reality . Towards the end of the month the court and I will be representing WSCA at Canterbury during the winter skijoring event . This will be my first time attending this event and I am thrilled to get to watch some amazing athletes compete . The court and I have also been invited to attend the North Metro Association Banquet . I am looking forward to attending and getting to meet more wonderful people from our association .
Until next month ! God Bless , Kalli Koepp 2022-2023 WSCA Queen
