We took Beauty, Pebbles, Daisy and Peanut to the Summerfest Breeders Show at Kemptville College on August 1st, 2010.
Daisy and Beauty went in the Broodmare (Pony) Class, and Beauty placed 1st, with Daisy placing 2nd. I showed Daisy, and Mom showed Beauty. Susan B and Serge took care of the foals.
Next was the Pony Foal of 2010 class. Peanut and Pebbles were in that class, along with another foal. Pebbles won the class and Peanut placed 3rd. Serge did a great job with Pebbles and I showed Peanut - both of them were so little it seemed like an awfully long run around the ring, even though the judges had us only use half of the outdoor ring.
Since Pebbles won his class, he had to go in the Champions class. In that class, he was up against a lot of much bigger ponies - yearlings, 2-3 year olds and more.
Pebbles won that class, too, qualifying him for the Sport Pony Challenge at the Royal Winter Fair in November!!!! He won a Champion ribbon, a Sport Pony ribbon, a cooler, and a bag of feed.
Beauty went in the Champion Broodmare class, showing against the winners of the CSH and Open broodmare classes. She was Reserve Champion!! Pretty amazing for a little mare that mom bought at Galetta Auction a few years ago, along with her daughter, Firecracker.
Poor Peanut! He was so tired at the end of the day that he fell asleep with his ribbon back at the trailer. He was only 1 month old - and had to run with his mom in every class.

The end result - a ton of ribbons, a cooler (for Pebbles - and all his friends), feed, treats and other stuff.
Pebbles' ribbons and cooler!
We're not sure that he'll ever grow into it, but it's a pretty cooler and we'll find a pony to wear it eventually.
Thank you very much to Susan B for all her help - we couldn't have run all those circles without you to help with the ponies.
