Spring is here, show season's upon us and baby colts are starting to hit the ground. This issue features some of our industry's premier stallions, and pre-show advertising. It was brought to my attention that some advertisers felt because it was called the Stallion Issue you had to stand a stallion in order to be included. Please excuse me if I've misled you. Any horse can be advertised in any issue that the owner wishes. 

The first Annual SSHBEA Extravaganza is an idea that certainly can develop into something great for SSHBEA, see coverage in this issue. The Sport Horse Winter Games were not held until after deadline and they will be covered in the Spring Issue. 

SSHBEA's Magazine Committee has been hard at work, hopefully we will be able to provide you with a more timely and better publication in the future. The office is swamped with registrations and general business issues. How wonderful that is, positive proof of just how our industry is on the grow. 

Good luck for the up coming show season.

Sincerely,

Deedy Decker
