It chronicles the lives of the Dutton family, led by John Dutton (Costner), who controls the largest contiguous cattle ranch in the United States.

The series has also seen significant lift in delayed viewing, with the premiere alone rising from 2.8 million viewers to 5.3 million in Live+7. “Yellowstone” is the third original series to launch on Paramount Network since the network was rebranded from Spike TV back in January.

By Wyatt Bechtel An amendment added to the Senate’s “minibus” spending bill would grant livestock haulers another year-long extension to implement Electronic Logging Devices (ELD).

The amendment was proposed by Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) to delay implementation of the ELD mandate until Sept. 30, 2019. Fischer says the legislation is important because livestock haulers face different challenges from other transporters who are currently using an ELD under regulations from the Department of Transportation. “With this extension, we will have more time to bring commonsense to these rules and provide additional flexibility,” Fischer says. There is currently an extension in place for ELD implementation that expires at the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30, 2018, that was authorized through an omnibus spending bill signed by President Trump in March. Placing a further extension

Senate Passes One-Year ELD Extension for Livestock Haulers

Livestock haulers could get another year-long extension to implement Electronic Logging Devices (ELD) through an amendment to the Senate's spending bill. ( Wyatt Bechtel ) will give regulators from Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) time to work with livestock transporters and producers to find a resolution to the hours of service (HOS) mandate that is reinforced through the ELD.

Livestock groups like the U.S. Cattlemen’s Association (USCA)

were thankful to Senator Fischer for moving the legislation forward. USCA Transportation Committee Chairman Steve Hilker says the HOS rules as currently written do not offer enough flexibility for hauling live animals. “This one-year delay is needed because we still have not received the flexibility we have asked for from the Department of Transportation's FMCSA. We have the solution already

SEPTEMBER 2018

drafted and introduced in Congress,” Hilker says. The solution he refers to is the Transporting Livestock Across America Safely Act (TLAASA) proposed by Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), a bill that would extend HOS for livestock haulers. “We need the one-year delay to secure the final passage of this bill,” says Hilker, owner of Steve Hilker Trucking Inc., in Cimarron, Kan. The minibus appropriations bill that the amendment was within passed with a vote of 92-6 on August 1. At the House level a similar extension amendment made its way through committee to be considered on the House floor when the appropriations bill goes to vote. There is a chance that the minibus appropriations bill fails even if approved by the Senate and House. President Trump has said there needs to be funding for a wall along the southern border with Mexico for him to sign. Similar threats of a shutdown over border security spending were made by President Trump when the omnibus spending bill was passed in March. As of right now livestock haulers can continue to use paper logs until Sept. 30, 2018, when the omnibus spending bill amendment expires.

By Ana Nita With a total budget of $4.5 million, the Lakeside Equestrian Park received the green light for the groundbreaking ceremony and the bidding for construction. The County partnered up with the East County Equestrian Foundation, a local non-profit group tasked with raising $150,000 to cover the cost of management and maintenance for the equestrian facility after construction. Last month, the County directed an additional $10,000 grant toward the foundation “to support the hosting of events to raise funds to operate a

future equestrian park in Lakeside,” as stated in the Second District allocations for the Community Enhancement Funds submitted by County Supervisor Dianne Jacob. The equestrian park will be built on a 14-acre spit of land on Moreno Avenue in Lakeside and will be designed to host rodeo events for juniors and seniors, barrel racing, cattle events, gymkhanas, horse shows, clinics and trail events. The layout includes a covered arena and renting spaces for public

events to serve the equine community in the entire Southern California. The East County Equestrian Foundation raised $59,842 so far from private and public donations, sponsors, memberships, and fundraising events. The foundation has a GoFundMe page and is also part of the Amazon Smile project that redirects a percentage of the sale toward non-profit organizations.

to treasurer Cheryl Erpelding, the new board will “continue to work toward raising funds and awareness.” Erpelding was brought on board by Barnard to help with marketing and fundraising. Julie Murphy stepped down as the Vice President to have more time to “work with Parks and Recreation on the design of the equestrian park, as the county has never built an equestrian facility before.” Both Erpelding and Murphy agreed that the foundation needs more volunteers, more people to sign up for the membership or to donate and also more board members. “Our short-term goal is to see the park built,” said Murphy. “Donations will buy items needed, a tractor, a water truck and implements to keep the ground safe and clean.” She pointed out that “our long term is to manage the park on a day to day basis with all types of possibilities for rental. Murphy joined the foundation at its inception six years ago. “My motivation is our youth,” she said. “We need to make sure they have an equestrian facility that will remain in perpetuity.” The foundation is busy organizing monthly fundraising events either on its own or by partnering up with other local businesses. The volunteers with the board raised $1,242 at the recent Bulls Only rodeo show in Lakeside. Erpelding is encouraging people to stop for dinner on July 20 at Boll Weevil in Lakeside where 20 percent of the restaurant bill will go to the foundation. A similar event is planned for Aug. 14 at Raising Cane’s restaurant in Santee, while on Aug. 25, everybody is invited to the Wilbur Moore Trail Challenge at the Lakeside Polo Grounds. Before that, though, there is the Pine Valley Days event the foundation is planning to attend. Coming this fall, everybody is looking forward to the members BBQ at Lone Oak Ranch in Lakeside. The equestrian park is a dream come true for Lakeside, a well-known equestrian and farming community. “I am excited for Lakeside businesses and the money this park will bring to our town,” said Murphy.

Kicking Up Kind Deeds - Gilbert Days Rodeo Royalty

By Lindsey Brewer - Gilbert Days Rodeo Princess

Gilbert Days Rodeo Royalty has a platform called Kicking Up Kindness. This platform inspires us to be on the look out for kind deeds big and small. For over 20 years Gilbert Rodeo Royalty has been inspired being on the look out for good deeds.

Although not everbody notices it, acts of kindness happen everyday, all around us! Kindness does not always come in the form of huge planned service projects, yet it can make all the difference to someone in need. In fact, kindness can be just noticing a need of someone around you, and responding to it without selfish intent or desires. My Mom recently told me a story about a small act of kindness that she witnessed at the shop where she works. Everyday, she and her manager watched as a homeless man wandered around town, and then up to the front porch of the shop in search of food. He dug through the trash cans looking for old take-out bags, or even chip bags with crumbs left over in them. Though he was in need of food aned nourishment, the man never asked for food or for anyone to help him. That is where the selfless act of kindness came in. One day, the manager was eating lunch by the window, and saw the man walking in the direction of the shop in his usual route. The manager immediately knew what she was 40

going to do. She quickly wrapped up the food she had been eating, (even though there was a considerable amount of the meal left) and ran outside to the trash can that he usually scavenged for food in. She carefully placed the bundle of food on top of the can, then ran inside, hoping not to be noticed. My Mom watched from the window as the man came up to the trash can and saw the very carefully bundled meal that had been left for him to discover. He looked around to see if anybody was nearby, and noticed my Mom in the window. With grattitude in his eyes and a smile on his face, he waved a simple, yet unmistakeable thank you. He took the food and walked on, his empty stomach filled for the day. Seeing how easy it was to lighten the burden of this man who was less fortunate than herself, the kindhearted manager regularly began to save a portion of her lunches for him to discover. This gesture was little and seemingly insignificant to the manager, but anybody in a similar situation to that of the hungry homeless man knows it can have the ability to impact their lives. Everyday, all around us, there are opportunities to serve others. It is up to us to kick up some kindness by seeing the problems and meeting the needs of the people around us.2018 Gilbert Days Rodeo will be held November 16th17th - 18th at Welcome Home Ranch in Gilbert, AZ. Come out and join us!

Dear Friends: I am running for re-election to the Scottsdale City Council because Scottsdale citizens need a strong representative voice on the Council focused on their behalf, and I believe my record during my first term proves I am that voice. I am a Scottsdale native and have been a resident activist in Scottsdale for many years. My goals for Council are: • Protect your neighborhoods from harmful development

• Defend Scottsdale’s special character, including our rural and equestrian character

• Approve conservative fiscal policies • Support tourism and small business, and above all, • Support public safety to protect your neighborhoods and keep you safe.

I will continue to vote to protect your neighborhoods from harmful development. Because I stand with the residents, I have been endorsed for re-election by the Coalition of Greater Scottsdale. I have voted to protect and preserve equestrian zoning. There is no better example of my commitment to protect Scottsdale's quality of life and the taxpayers' pocketbook than my steadfast opposition to the Desert Discovery Center/Desert EDGE, especially without a vote of the citizens who will foot the bill. For one thing, it is a commercial enterprise which breaks the promises made when voters in all parts of our city were asked to tax themselves almost a billion dollars to purchase the land for the Preserve. It is also a financial disaster - building it would drain a whopping 62 million taxpayer dollars from our Preserve and Bed Tax funds, diverting those dollars from more worthy projects. And the annual operating deficit would have to be covered from the city's General Fund, which means either a tax increase to cover it, or less money for public safety, streets, parks and other important municipal needs. Because of this I stand with the citizens for a Charter Amendment (Proposition 420) requiring a public vote before any commercial development can be built inside our Preserve. In fact, I am the only Councilmember who has voted 100% not to proceed with the DDC/Desert EDGE project without the approval of the voters. Because I am a fiscal conservative I have fought to keep our taxes – especially property taxes - low, which is why I opposed the $350M all-ornothing bond proposal this spring. I support tourism and I will continue to work to attract new businesses and events to Scottsdale. I support WestWorld and the Tony Nelssen Equestrian Center. I also support the galleries, restaurants and shops in our Downtown that contribute to our economy and to Scottsdale’s unique reputation for arts and culture. I support public safety. Residents deserve a safe and secure environment in which to live, work and raise their families. Keeping you safe will continue to be my #1 priority, which is why Police and Firefighters have endorsed me for re-election. If you have any questions or would like more information, feel free to contact me. I would be honored to receive your vote on November 6th to continue to be Your Voice on City Council.

Thank you, Kathy Littlefield

National Roper’s Supply

Open New Store Locations in Wickenburg

By Meg Drake

National Roper’s Supply [NRS], headquartered in Decatur, Texas, is excited to announce the opening of its newest location in Wickenburg, Arizona. As a major hub for team roping and horse

enthusiasts, Wickenburg is a logical fit for the family-owned and-operated tack, apparel and feed store.

“I am very excited about NRS going to Wickenburg,” said David Isham, NRS Owner/CEO. “From a local perspective, it's a fantastic

town with a long heritage of loving all things western.” With roots deep in the roping and western industries, all NRS locations carry the best in western tack and apparel. The team at NRS has big plans for the new location and are excited to supply locals and visitors with everything they need to properly outfit their lifestyle. “We [NRS] have always prided ourselves on being the cowboy or cowgirl’s hub for all things western,” said Jason Brooks, Director of Purchasing. “There is no place more core or relevant to our team roping customers than Wickenburg, Arizona. It’s where many ropers spend six to seven months out of every year. We are excited for an opportunity to be where ‘our people’ are.” Of course, all of this would not have been possible had it not been for the company’s acquisition of Double D Western World. Since opening its doors 30 years ago, Double D Western World has diligently served the Wickenburg area. “We’ve spent the last three decades pouring our hearts into our business, establishing relationships and enjoying the strong sense of community that comes with it,” said Berva Botts, Double D Western World Owner. NRS hopes to carry on this same tradition of community involvement and exceptional customer service.

“Creed and Berva Botts have been incredible to work with. They have spent years building a great business and serving the residents of Wickenburg and all the ropers who show up in the winter,” said Isham. “NRS is honored that they chose us to take over their business for the next few decades.” NRS plans to operate a retail store, feed store and pro shops in Wickenburg. Many of the same great brands the company carries in stores and online will also be available to Wickenburg. “Visitors to NRS Wickenburg will now have access to all the great products they have been seeing in the NRS catalog from the top manufacturers in the country,” said Isham. “The Wickenburg location will be working initially to have a broader selection of western footwear and clothing for the whole family as well as everything for the active horseman and his horse.” Since founding National Roper’s Supply in 1989, Isham has kept quality and customer service at the core of the company’s values. Today, the NRS brand has grown to feature a trailer dealership, feed store, arena and event venue, vacation-styled guest ranch and retail stores in Weatherford, Texas, Granbury, Texas, Decatur, Texas and now Wickenburg, Arizona. NRS is also a proud supporter of the roping community. On top of being the roper's one-stopshop for all tack and competition needs, NRS also sponsors roping events throughout the year and serves as the official catalog of the USTRC and WSTR. Just as the store’s slogan suggests, “if it’s right for roping, it’s right here.”

Mustang MM Cody

Wins 2018 Haggin Cup at Tevis

By Marsha Hayes

MM Cody, a 10-year-old chestnut Mustang gelding, and his rider Mykayla Corgnell received the 2018 Haggin Cup at the Tevis Cup awards banquet, held July 29 in Auburn, California. He is the first Mustang to earn the coveted title. The annual award is presented to the horse deemed in superior condition after completing the 100-mile journey over the Western State Trail from near Lake Tahoe to Auburn. The award also takes horsemanship into consideration. “Cody was in incredible shape,” said Tevis head veterinarian Mike Peralez, DVM. “He was head and shoulders above the competition.”

Only the first 10 horses to cross the finish line are eligible to be considered for the award. Cody and Corgnell finished eighth, two hours and 22 minutes behind the winners, Heather Reynolds and endurance-racing-bred Arabian Cayucos. Cody’s owner, Mark Montgomery, also completed the ride on his 11-year-old Mustang MM Woodrow in ninth place. Montgomery has been adopting, training, and finding homes for Mustangs for 20 years. “I choose Mustangs because they are the toughest, most durable horses out there,” Montgomery said. Since Corgnell was attempting her first Tevis Cup, Montgomery felt Cody was the right mount for the 21-year-old. “Cody is so easy to ride and takes care of his rider, while Woody is a more challenging ride,” he said.

Montgomery and Corgnell condition the Mustangs from his home in Penn Valley, California. Of the 149 horses that started, only 64 finished within 24 hours and passed the final veterinary examination. The 43% completion rate was one of the lowest in ride history. Peralez believes heat, humidity, and smoke from the Carr Fire, burning in the Redding, California, area were factors for both horses and riders. Of the horses that did not complete, 27 were pulled for lameness; 22 for metabolic issues such as dehydration, elevated heart rates, or diminished gut sounds; and 19 due to “rider option,” which could indicate a rider not feeling fit to continue or that they felt their horse wasn’t fit to continue.”

More NRS Prior to making the decision to retire, the husband - wife duo of Creed and Berva Botts owned and operated Double D Western World for 30-years. They supplied the Wickenburg area with all tack, apparel and western furniture-related needs.

“We hope all the folks of Wickenburg will remember how much we’ve appreciated their business,” said Botts. “We know that the town of Wickenburg will appreciate another family-owned and-operated company moving in.” As another 30-year company, NRS is proud to be able to continue their legacy of quality and care.

When Claire Godwin, DVM, of Laytonsville, Maryland, responded to an ad in a local horse magazine offering an Arabian for sale some years ago, she thought she was buying a 4-H pony for her kids. She had no idea that the 14-hand gray gelding would eventually carry her and more than a dozen other riders down some of the toughest endurance trails in the U.S. On Saturday, Godwin and that gelding PL Mercury, now 27.5-yearold, crossed the finish line at the 100-mile Tevis Cup, held annually in California. With this completion, “Merc” broke his own record as the oldest equine Tevis Cup finisher. What’s more, the pair finished just outside the Top 10 in 13th place from a field of 149 starters, of which only 64 completed. Their ride time of 17 hours, 18 minutes was just two hours, 33 minutes behind the winners, Heather Reynolds and the 10-year-old Arabian gelding Cayucos. This year Godwin and Merc lopped four hours and 19 minutes off their 2017 ride time. Even factoring in the considerable crewing skill of twotime Tevis winner John Crandall, it’s hard to argue that age is slowing Merc down. So how does Godwin keep Merc performing at such an elite level with so many years under his belt? She gives a lot of the credit to Merc himself.

SEPTEMBER 2018

“He doesn’t have perfect conformation; no horse does,” she says. “But he does have a short back, really good bone, and size 1 feet. “He is relaxed and not a real dependent horse, although he does really like his pasturemate, Ahmose,” she adds. It’s the dependability, athleticism, and attitude that’s led Merc to partner with 14 different riders throughout his American Endurance Conference career, many of them beginning junior riders. Godwin also believes that plenty of old-fashioned rest has helped Merc progress so successfully throughout his long career. “I like Merc to have two to three months off in the winter,” she says. “Merc’s emotional wellbeing is just as important as physical care. My horses run out in the pasture 24/7.” Godwin prepares Merc for competitions carefully, often ponying him to covering miles and improve his condition while keeping weight off his strong, but aging, back. She also believes Merc shouldn’t necessarily race on every endurance ride: “Pick and choose the rides you want to go fast,” she cautions. Day to day, Godwin feeds Merc a joint supplement with his lowcarb commercial feed. She says use uses Adequan about 48 hours before competing in 50- or 100-mile events and as needed between competitions.

Arizona Horseman’s Challenge Expo

By Darcy Cochrane

928-300-3360

azhcexpo@gmail.com

The 2018 Arizona Horseman’s Challenge & Expo will return to Horseshoe Park & Equestrian Centre in

Queen Creek April 19 th , 20 th and 21 st 2019. This will be the 7 th year for this event, and each year it grows bigger and better. There are over 30 clinics, exhibitions, and Ride with the Expert opportunities hosted at this event. The cornerstone is the Arizona Horseman’s

Challenge, Arizona’s premier colt starting competition. It puts five experienced horse trainers vying against each other to see who can train their colt to the best of their and their colts ability in the time given. Jody Swink of No Sweat Natural Horsemanship is the

creator of this format for the colt starting competition. The concept is not new, the execution of it is. In most colt starting competitions, the one who gets their horse the farthest is the winner, period. In the AZHC there are four judges watching five trainers work with untrained mustangs in eight hours over three days. They watch how they interact, how they bring the horse along, and what different training tools they use to overcome challenges that the horses present. In this unique setting, the trainers are judged on how they bring the horses along, not only the end result. This format also makes a fun spectator event. The horses are picked by the trainer’s using a white elephant style, picking numbers out of a hat and they are allowed to steal each other’s horse. The seating puts the spectators up close and personal, watching all five trainers working with their colts simultaneously.

And, like Godwin recommends for any horse over 17, Merc has at least twice-annual veterinary appointments for appropriate vaccinations, deworming and routine care. Looking back, Godwin recalls that she thought Merc might be done with competitions a few years ago. An ultrasound during a veterinary appointment revealed what veterinarians suspected was an intestinal tumor. So Merc joined his friends in the pasture for some R&R. It wasn’t long, however, before he returned to his old self. Godwin decided to bring him back to work and see what happened. He came back with a bang. “I really think he is in better condition now than he was two years ago,” Godwin says.

First western entertainment experience of its kind to open in Arizona

Frontier Town expands its footprint by adding town, western entertainment, music, saloon and more to new oneof-a-kind western venue Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, Frontier Town, one of Arizona’s only remaining western town destinations, has undergone a massive property expansion to become the first western entertainment destination to be opened in Arizona in more than a

decade. Arizona’s past crowd-pleasing western and entertainment venues have virtually disappeared. According to Marc Peagler, general manager of Frontier Town, the Wild West will come alive with the creation of a one-of-a-kind western town and the scheduling of action-packed western entertainment provided by Six Gun Entertainment, LLC. Awardwinning Six Gun Entertainment

performs stunt and acting shows that thrill western aficionados, residents, tourists and corporate businesses. “Frontier Town, which turns 50 years old in 2019, is preparing for the next century by bringing the excitement of the missing Wild West experience to residents, business groups and tourists alike,” says Peagler. “Over the years, Arizona has lost so many wonderful western locations due to growth, construction and a lack of focus on our roots as Americans – the real Wild West.” Chaz Lee, director of affairs and stunt coordinator for Six Gun Entertainment, says the authentic town, Greasewood, which also is a stunt theater, will be home to numerous Wild West acting and stunt performances in the days and months ahead. The new entertainment core fully opens to the public on Saturday, October 13, 2018, with a surprise shootout show at noon. The expansion also includes a major venue for western weddings, known as AZ Rustic Weddings, a new saloon slated to open in early spring, a restaurant establishment named Greasewood, a new stage for western and headliner musical acts, and other novel accouterments to give guests a full flavor of the West from beginning to end. “Frontier Town will become a top destination for people seeking Wild West entertainment,” says Peagler. The initial dates are in 2018 are October 13 - 12 PM, Nov.10 & 24 12 PM, Dec. 8 - 12 PM. In 2019 they are Jan. 5 - 12 PM, Feb. 2 & 16 - 12 PM, March 2 & 16 - 12 PM Peager says that in addition to the exciting entertainment complex, more enhancements are planned for 2019.

Frontier Town, which is owned by Frontier Enterprises, is located at 6245 E. Cave Creek Road in Cave Creek, Ariz.; www.frontiertownaz.com, is one of the oldest, most established western towns and shopping retail locations in Arizona. 56

Zoetis Introduces Complete Core Equine Disease Vaccine

Today, Zoetis introduced Core EQ Innovator™, the first and only equine vaccine to contain all five core equine disease antigens – West Nile, Eastern and Western Equine encephalomyelitis, tetanus and rabies – in one smooth vaccine. As defined by the American Association of Equine

SEPTEMBER 2018

Practitioners and the American Veterinary Medical Association, these diseases are designated as core because all horses are at risk for exposure, all have a high fatality rate, and some may present a potential human health risk. “Viral respiratory and neurologic diseases are the leading preventable causes of death in horses,” said Jacquelin Boggs, DVM, MS, ACVIM, senior veterinarian, Equine Technical Services at Zoetis. “While annual vaccination against the core equine diseases has long been an established standard of care, Core EQ Innovator will simplify compliance and help provide protection to all horses against these deadly diseases. We trust this vaccine will better equip veterinarians with the tools they need to help protect the health and well-being of horses.”

Annual vaccination is the only way to help protect horses from the deadly core equine diseases. Core EQ Innovator is available only through veterinarians to provide additional assurance horses are vaccinated properly. Core EQ Innovator provides a safe and effective immune response against the five core equine disease antigens as demonstrated in safety and efficacy trials. The vaccine has been field tested in more than 1,000 horses with 99.7% of horses being reaction-free.2,3 With a convenient 1-mL dose size, the vaccine is safe for use in healthy horses 3 months of age or older. All of the disease antigens in Core EQ Innovator are backed by the Zoetis Equine Immunization Support Guarantee. The guarantee provides horse owners and veterinarians peace of mind through unparalleled vaccination support, including diagnostic testing and treatment. The addition of Core EQ Innovator enriches the best-in-class portfolio of equine vaccines from Zoetis. Core EQ Innovator will be available to veterinarians through their Zoetis representative and distribution partners. Horse owners are encouraged to contact their veterinarian for more information or visit CoreEQInnovator.com.

Dr. Elaine Carpenter Service Oct 13th

A graduate from Colorado State University in Equine Surgery, Elaine was known around the state as the Equine Lameness Specialist. Working as a Surgeon with Chaparral Veterinary clinic, Cave Creek Equine Surgical Center and Southwest Equine, Elaine never refused to help a horse in need. With her pilot’s license, Elaine flew across the state to treat horses in all four corners of Arizona. When she was not working as a surgeon, she would spend her evenings teaching Equine Anatomy and mentoring students. Always the teacher, Elaine would never turn down an opportunity to share her knowledge. Whether in the operating room, in a lab or at a barn, Elaine often had students by her side, a smile on her face and a thumbs up for a job well done. When she wasn’t helping horses or students, she was living life to the fullest. Rock climbing, flying, and

motorcycle racing were just some of the adventures that awaited her on the weekends. Colleagues, friends and students from across the country would follow her adventures online, living vicariously through her. One of her proudest moments came in 2016 when she made the television show American Ninja Warrior. Despite not making it up the warped wall, she was thrilled to be part of the show. After shoulder surgery, she trained even harder and was looking forward to competing on the 2018 show. Her loss has echoed across the hearts of all her knew her and left a hole in the SCC and Equine communities. Her infectious smile and love of life will be missed by all who were lucky enough to have known her. Elaine’s family would like to invite her friends and students to a public service on Saturday, October 13, at 10:30 a.m. at CCV Scottsdale, 19030 N Pima Road, Scottsdale, AZ. There will be a reception immediately following the service.

Ziegler Closes $5.9 Million Revenue Bond Financing for SilverLakes Equestrian & Sports Park in NORCO

Ziegler, a specialty investment bank, is pleased to announce the successful closing of a $5,900,000 fixed-rate financing for the SilverLakes Equestrian and Sports Park (SilverLakes), issued through the California Public Finance Authority. SilverLakes, located in Norco, California, is a state-of-the-art facility designed to cater to the youth sports market, with a primary emphasis on youth soccer. “I am pleased Ziegler was able to help facilitate the raising of funds for this very important and highly visible Southern California project, which

would never have come to fruition without the dedication and long-term commitment of Mr. Brandes and Ms. Ross, along with the ingenuity and foresight of RPM as the investor," said John Solarczyk, Managing Director at Ziegler. "As a parent myself, I expect to be at SilverLakes often in the future to watch my own children play in tournaments at this first-rate facility, which is only a relatively short drive, by Southern California standards, from anywhere in Riverside, Los Angeles or Orange Counties." Ziegler underwrote and sold the Bonds to RPM Capital Management, LLC (RPM) of Greenwich, Connecticut. The Bonds were issued to allow the development on the property of a permanent restaurant building, concert facilities and a large, high definition freeway sign along the I-15. The property was developed in 2015 from proceeds of a $20 million bond, also purchased by ! r RPM. “This dynamic project is a elive We Can D welcome addition to our portfolio and compliments our overall investment strategy,” says Michele Newland, RPM’s Founder and Chief Investment Officer.

VF Corp says it is spinning off its denim brands including Wrangler

By Elizabeth Segran

For years, we’ve seen how Americans are ditching their jeans for stretchy, comfy leggings. Athleisure, the trend of wearing activewear out of the gym and into everyday life, isn’t just a trend anymore. It’s the new way we dress. This has come to the attention of VF Corp, the holding company for dozens of footwear and apparel brands, including Lee, Wrangler, North Face, Vans, Timberland, and Reef. Today, the company says it is spinning off its denim brands–which also include Rock & Republic and Rustler–into a separate publicly traded company, so that it can focus on its activewear brands. VF’s denim business has been on the decline. Last year, it generated $2.66 billion in sales, down 3% from the previous year, and $422 million in profit, down 14%. According to a statement by VF Corp, this separation will simplify operations and allow each company to focus on the two different areas of expertise. According to the Wall Street Journal, however, VF Corp may be looking to exit the denim business altogether by finding a buyer or another strategic option. Instead, VF Corp will concentrate on its activewear and outdoor brands, which generate an estimated $11 billion in revenue. Startups have been quicker to pick up on the move to athleisure. Over the last few years, the market has been flooded with activewear brands and retailers, like Outdoor Voices, Bandier, and Varley. It’s taken the big, established corporations a bit longer to catch up. But it’s clear that jeans are quickly diminishing on the American fashion landscape and are being replaced with yoga pants.

Arizona Gunslingers’ Cowboy Fast Draw

Event to feature state’s top fast draw experts November 3, 2018

The Association of Arizona Gunslingers, members of the Cowboy Fast Draw Association, will demonstrate shooting skills and assist event visitors interested in learning to shoot on Saturday, November 3, 2018 at The Horny Toad. The fast draw experts will host a Town Alley event known as Come Try Cowboy Fast Draw, beginning at 10:00 AM. Town Alley is a safe, organized event for the public to try their hand at Cowboy Fast Draw. Visitors can test their skills for only $5 for 10 shots. Cowboy Fast Draw is one of the fastest growing shooting sports and the closest thing to a real gunfight. The Arizona Gunslingers use real single action .45 caliber six shooters with a minimum barrel length of 4.5 inches but will use wax bullets propelled by a 209 shotgun primer. The holsters are pre-1900's style, no metal liners. The shooting pros wait for a light, draw, aim, fire and hit a 24inch round target 21 feet away before the opponent does. In addition to the fast draw fun, local artist Randy Hume will create caricatures for guests and visitors and The Horny Toad will feature flat iron steak with cowboy beans, baked potato and garlic bread for only $14.95. The Horny Toad, Cave Creek’s oldest and most popular restaurant, is located at 6738 E. Cave Creek Road in Cave Creek, Ariz., www.thehornytoad.com. CONTACT: Fran Booth, ABC/602.400.3330

Your Diesel engine is more capable than you think!

Hopefully soon we will start to see some cooler temperatures heading our way. It’s been a long hot summer. A lot of trucks have been coming into the shop with the concern of overheating and/or running hot. Some of these have come down to coolant leaks, air flow issues, and, if you can believe, driving habits. Overdrive transmissions and turbo chargers have been part of our diesel engines since the early 90’s (Yes there are exceptions, but let’s keep it simple for arguments sake). With these advancements in technology, our diesel engines have gotten quieter, improved on fuel economy, and power has been improved as well. Would you believe that a lot of us don’t use our transmissions or turbos as they should be used? When climbing a mountain a lot of us still have the mentality that our engine can power through the pull. For a turbocharged engine this can be the death of it. Your engine requires you to be a little hard on it. Believe it or not, the more you push your engine and transmission, the happier it will be. Letting your turbocharged engine struggle, and/or lug up the mountain, puts more stress on it. Heat is created in the transmission due to that final overdrive gear not being able to handle the load you are carrying - slipping occurs and heat is generated, which taxes your cooling system. At the same time, the low boost levels in your engine allow for exhaust gas temperatures to rise to very high to unsafe levels. If you have a pyrometer (exhaust gas temperature gauge) 1250 degrees in pretty much the magic number to stay under. Exhaust gas temps that go over this, can cause you to burn a hole in a piston, damage cylinder walls or valves, and hurt your injectors and so on. Your engine is more capable than you think! Push your truck a little harder, let the transmission down shift, allow your engine to use the turbo giving you a higher boost figure. Higher boost numbers actually keep your exhaust temperatures lower. Downshifting your transmission makes it easier on the motor to do it’s job, and puts your transmission in gear which makes it easier to climb the mountain and easier for your truck to pull the load you are carrying. I have helped many people with their driving over the years. It’s fun to see the light bulb turn on when they see how there truck behaves by driving it just a bit differently. Strictly Diesel is here to help. We can give you pointers on how to drive your truck empty or loaded. Let us help you make your truck last longer and be that much more fun while towing.

All About Equine Animal Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit that was founded in 2009 by a group of people that were sick of seeing countless horses being neglected, abandoned, or sent to auction/ slaughter. Working hard they turned a family-owned ranchette into a working sanctuary and rehab center for horses, and since its start, they have had over two hundred horses come through their doors to live healthy, happy, and productive lives. Being a non-profit specialty, therapy items are not always easy to get, but thanks to a $4,000 grant from the EQUUS Foundation and a separate corporate donation of $2,250 they where able to secure the funds and provide their equine residents the undeniable benefits of a TheraPlate.

in the states, by sharing the horses ability to empower, teach/ heal and by providing financial support, recognition, resources, guidance, and services, to equine organizations in the states. The horses and staff at All About Equine Animal Rescue, Inc. are thrilled with the results they have seen in three horses so far thanks to regular use of the TheraPlate. “TheraPlate has a great application available for download and use with cell phones, making it easy to follow during a session. We are also learning more about the many conditions that can benefit from the TheraPlate, and we are expanding its use as horses with these conditions come in”, said Elaine a representative from All About Equine. Cahill is a twenty-year-old quarter horse that was suffering from an abscess and after getting used to the therapy plate he seemed to thoroughly enjoy his time on it; and since then he has been adopted to a loving home! Kasey is another senior resident at the center. At twenty

two years young, this gentle giant Clydesdale has had chronic hoof and abscess problems since he came to them two years ago; but since he has been getting on the TheraPlate he can move with ease around his paddock and perks up after his sessions on the plate. From the biggest residents to the smallest, TheraPlate can help out any horse; just like Robbie the resident pinto miniature horse that has Cushing’s disease. After being introduced to the TheraPlate recently he now helps himself to the platform! “All in all, our horses appear to enjoy their time on the equipment, and it seems to have a beneficial effect to those horses that have been treated.” Said Elaine. TheraPlate is the Official Therapy Plate of the US Equestrian, providing equine athletes increased circulation and pain reduction, enhanced muscle tone and overall improvement in the quality of their warm-ups and cool-downs during training.

G N I T O O F A AREN Good footing is important during competition and practice, we have high performance expensive horses, and hurting one while practicing would be devastating. Over a year ago my good barrel horse hyperextended his front leg because of bad footing. I never to have in realized how important good footing was s were worth your own arena, our Custom Mix Footing e on having the investment because you can’t put a pric your horse’s “peace of mind” when it comes to you and safety.” --- Nicole Banning

We now have Kiser Arena Specialist approved blends

Working with Trio Aggregate Haulers and Brennen has been absolutely fantastic! They were very professional, extremely knowledgable and incredibly efﬁcient. I could not be more happy with my Custom Mix Footing. It is a perfect consistency for my horses, has done great in all weather conditions and is very easy to work with. I love working in the footing every day! --- Shann on Beethe

What’s the Custom Mix Advantage?

• Excellent drainage • Stability and cushion for your horse and livestock • Minimal dust • A longer lasting material when compared to a traditional sand arena.

Tomlyn® Completes its

Launch of Chrysanphyton

Tomlyn®, a world-class developer of scientifically developed, veterinarianapproved animal health products, has launched a third Equistro® horse supplement, Chrysanphyton, completing its line of equine supplements first released in 2017. “Launching and growing our line of health supplements for horses has been a major focus for Tomlyn over the past 12 months,” said Tabitha Cromer, marketing manager at Tomlyn. “We’re proud to announce that horse owners can now find our complete line of Equistro equine products, Artphyton, Secreta Pro Max and Chrysanphyton, in most major feed stores across the country.” The most recently launched Equistro product, Chrysanphyton, is a daily equine supplement used to help promote and support normal circulation and vascular function. The supplement is made from the plant, Chrysanthellum americanum, which is dried and shredded. Like the plant, the Chrysanphyton supplement is rich in potent antioxidants. The supplement is formulated to give support to blood vessels, by keeping them healthy, and to promote the natural process of blood vessel dilation in horses. “Our Equistro Chrysanphyton supplement can be used to support horses that are prone to lower leg and hoof problems, such as quarter horses, warmbloods or thoroughbreds,” said Dr. Jennifer Kasten, technical services veterinarian at Tomlyn. “Proper blood circulation is essential for the normal function of hooves in middle aged and older horses.” Adult horses greater than 1,100 lbs. should be given one 20-gram scoop twice daily, which conveniently comes in pellet form. One bag of Chrysanphyton contains a 50-day supply at $129.00. Horse owners can find the supplement at most major feed stores in the United States. Chrysanphyton recently launched at SuperZoo 2018 and received second place for new equine products in the New Product Showcase. Nearly 630 new products were submitted to this year’s showcase. Retailers and other industry professionals voted for their favorites during the Las Vegas trade show in June. To learn more about Tomlyn’s line of Equistro products and where they can be purchased, please visit www.tomlyn.com.

New Location for Western States Horse Expo

New DATES, new LOCATION and new EXHIBITOR PROGRAMS!

We are really energized about the new programs, activities and events being incorporated into the Western States Horse Expo experience. We know you will be too, especially if you want to get your Brand in front of tens of thousands of highly motivated customers.

The new dates for the event are May 9-12, 2019. Yes, that means the event is four days in length. The new location is the Murieta Equestrian Center in Rancho Murieta, CA, which is about 30 minutes southeast from Sacramento, CA in the heart of horse country and the Sierra Foothills. The facility is the largest equine center in California and offers exceptional opportunities for Exhibitors, Clinicians, Competitors and Attendees to experience the Western States Horse Expo in amazing new ways. Being a privately owned horse focused facility provides us with a more open, “user friendly” environment in which to create new and exhilarating experiences that will benefit and attract everyone. After our most recent on-site planning meeting, we can say with confidence that the facility and the event itself will be unlike anything the industry as ever seen! Some of the events being held during Western States Horse Expo that are sure to enhance the “draw” of the event are: · The Magnificent 7 All-Around Stock Horse Championship is where the best reined cow-horses and riders in the sport gather together for two days of intense competition. The top seven teams will compete in the final round for cash, prizes and the honor of being the 2019 Magnificent 7 AllAround Stock Horse Champion. · Equus Masters – Legacy brings together four internationally known Clinicians work with four untouched horses over three days of competition. Celebrity judges will help to select the 2019 Equus Masters Champion who will receive cash and prizes. · Craig Cameron’s Extreme Cowboy Race brings together the very best teams to compete in three days of faced paced action as they face thirteen unique challenges, at speed, testing their partnership and horsemanship! With cash and points on the line, it is easy to see why this is the fasted growing equine sport around. The longer duration of the Western States Horse Expo will allow for a greater potential to generate sales and profits. The new, cost-effective Exhibitor Options (which include a healthy Marketing/Social Media 104

Awareness benefit) will help to reduce your up-front investment –booth packages start at just $700.00 - which is also really good for the bottom line. We also have ample outdoor space, should you require it, in our Rigs & Digs and The Ranch sections. We have also crafted the ability for our valued Exhibitors to secure their booth rate and size for the next two years! By being an Exhibitor at the 2019 Western States Horse Expo in May, your booth rate and size are secured until 2021. We even have an opportunity for you to get five (5) FREE days of exhibition as part of the Quinate Immersion Clinic Series. As you can tell already, this event is going to be something very special. Response to these new programs has been amazing and we are already filling up the Mane Market Pavilion, the Mane Market Festival and the Mane Market Premium Plaza (FYI - only 20 x20 spaces in the Premium Plaza with Sheldon Feed as the anchor) much quicker than we anticipated, which is awesome. It also means that corners and “prime locations” will be scooped much faster than in years past. To be a part of the action, please contact me at 530-672-7490 Monday – Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM PST or email me at michael@horsexpo.com and we can get you all the information you need to secure the best available spot for your business. Looking forward to partnering up together in 2019. FYI: We have secured the dates for our Pomona event, which will happen on November 15-17, 2019 at the Fairplex in Pomona, CA. Do not forget about utilizing our customizable Sponsorship Programs to really make a huge impact on your “Horse Expo Experience.” We can forward you Sponsorship information upon request. Have a fantastic week! Respectfully, Michael Canfield

Veterans Experience life-changing encounter with wild mustangs

2018 Mustang Heritage Foundation Veterans Program to kickoff October 8. With the help of the Mustang Heritage Foundation’s (MHF) Veterans & Mustangs program, military veterans choose a BLM mustang, untouched by humans, and transform the horse into a gentled, adoptable equine companion. The program is hands-on for the veteran and often challenging. Working with the mustang is an experience

SEPTEMBER 2018

that connects the veterans with an animal need, but has also proven life changing for the veteran. The 2018 fall session of the program starts on October 8. During the 6-week session, veterans will experience the transformation from “wild to mild” by working directly with their chosen wild mustang, in addition to learning marketable equine vocational skills and general equine knowledge. At the end of the session, the previously wild horses that participate in the program are available for adoption by the veteran participant or placed into private care. “You cannot force a mustang to do anything. You have to open yourself up to new ideas and new behaviors that are not comfortable for you,” said Darrell Urey, a Spring 2018 program participant. “I've learned as much working with a mustang as I’ve learned about myself going through every Veterans Affairs anger management, PTSD course over a 10year period. I learned more in those weeks about myself, my reactions, my reasoning, and it’s all because of the mustang.” The Veterans & Mustangs Program is completely reliant on donations. You can be a part of a mustang or veteran’s life and give them the chance for change by donating. Each $1,600 donation will sponsor one veteran and mustang pair through the 6-week program. To make your gift of any amount, call (512) 869-3225 or visit https:// mustangheritagefoundation.causevox. com Important dates: September 1, 2018 Fall 2018 Session Application Deadline: Applications can be found online at https:// mustangheritagefoundation.org/ veterans/ October 10, 2018 Mustang Pick Up: Pauls Valley Off-Range Corral – Located approximately 45 miles south of Oklahoma City.
