[SIZE=14pt]Wondering what the final tally is on peoplecoming to R nationals and where are you coming from?[/SIZE]

We are going from VA by way of NY , I know sounds weird but my horses are up there....lol. I know that the Goughs from Vanity Grove are going from VA. Who else is going now that entries are all in.

Oknow I dont know how accurate this is so I am stating that up front but someone at Congress talked to Leonard about entries at R Nationals and so far they were up over 1800 and still counting is what I heard. :new_shocked: :new_shocked:

So I imagine with numbers like that it will be an amazing show!

Anyway me and Raven will be there with 2 geldings and I cant wait!

 

[JMS Miniatures]

I heard at Congress that there is actually near 2500 horses at Nationals this year! :new_shocked:

We will have 3 at Nationals this year. Leaving on the first day Nationals start.

 

[Lisa-Ruff N Tuff Minis]

WOW those will be some LOOOONNNNGGG classes but hey that is what a National show is all about right

 

[Jill]

I wish I was going but I am not. At least one of my best horses, Destiny, will be there with Erica

With this "fancy new" trailer I am buying, H and I DO plan to be there in 2007

Actually I just talked to someone who spoke to Leonard and he confirmed that there was over 2100 at last count with a couple of boxes to still go thru so his guestimate is 23-2500 horses so yep you were right on.

HUGE AMOUNT

I am flying down from NH with my mom to show two of Linda Best's horses in youth showmanship A and B 13-17. I am sooo excited!!!!

 

[Enchantress]

I'm going to Nationals with 4. And I'm coming from Maine. Not looking forward to the drive, but looking forward to meeting people! Oh yeah, and showing!

 

[Donna]

Hmmmm, I wonder what the count was for congress? Anyone know? Just wondering......

I do understand that there is going to be an overwhelming number of trainers there that usually are not there, this is going to be quite an interesting show

:

and of course, yes we will be there, we enjoy the show very much , all the new people to meet and seeing all the old faces , well, not so old but, faces we have not seen for a while, there goes, that sounds better, and if we win a ribbon, well, thats the bonus.............

See ya there !!!

 

[Lisa-Ruff N Tuff Minis]

I heard around 550 for congress but again not sure how accurate that was.

 

[lyn_j]

[SIZE=14pt]Lenard said 480 at congress and it is VERY hot both weather and competition.[/SIZE]

Getetia is kicking serious butt as is Belinda with the Wall street horses and Doc Taylor is placing well also even little Quin and he is only 7!

Lyn

[SIZE=14pt]Forgot to add Eddie McCarthys Michigans Heir to the Throne has won or been reserve in every class he went in both halter and driving![/SIZE]

McKieth and Getitia are deffently doing well.

Royals 1/2 brother has also kicked some serious butt this week as well at Congress in Liberty, Color and Foundation halter.

 

[wildoak]

We are coming for the driving, showmanship, and yearling halter geldings & stallions. First time in probably 6 or 7 years that we've been and we are looking forward to it. Amazing to think of so many horses....how big was it last year? I think World was just under 1000.

[Tami]

We are coming but just to watch. :aktion033: :aktion033: This will be the first time we go to Nationals and I am excited. Maybe we will bring horses next year.

 

[Lost Spoke Ranch]

We're going! Two of our boys will be coming from California...Catch & Legend and one boy will be coming from Texas...Color Maker. We will be coming from Benson, Arizona. This will be the first Nationals we've attended and looking forward to it!

Dawn :saludando:

 

[MyBarakah]

:saludando: Hi!

I will be going, coming from Nebraska... I'm leaving on the 9th -13th. I am taking just one, my stallion. Can't wait to meet and see everyone!!

So cool Tami that you are going!!!! :bgrin

 

[Jitterbug]

Has anybody's check cleared their bank account yet ?

I'm not worried that Lenard didn't receive our entries because I sent them Certified mail and I

have the receipt Lenard signed.

Still, what if we drive all the way from NC and don't have stalls ??!!

We haven't heard how many horses are entered - would love to hear how many hunters and jumpers.

[Jean_B]

Definitely will be there...this will be my 12th 'R' Nationals. It sure is a huge difference from when I started. My first Nationals was back in 95 - back when all the entries fit in the barns at the crummy Columbia MO location. What an amazing difference....I think there were around 600 entries back then and we were happy for those facilities. Now... WOW! The facilities in Tulsa are awesome...and don't worry, Justine, there will be stalls. They have added another set of barns/stalls.

I'm bringing a yearling filly and 3 weaners. That's all this old gal can handle these days.
