The third year of the Fun In The Sun NSBA All Breed horse show concluded with entries approximately even with 2016 numbers. “We had a great year,” said Tammy Schuster, who with Dean Bogart created the show.
“Since it was our third year, I think we worked things out so that it was the smoothest it’s ran yet. We tried to make it a great experience for exhibitors, with brunches and dinners and really nice prizes. Our sponsors, who were amazing, helped us make that happen.”
“The quality of the horses this year was outstanding,” added Dean Bogart. “The weather was perfect and we had support for our show from exhibitors from more distance than years past. We greatly appreciate all of the exhibitors who supported our show, the judges did a great job, and we had great support from the staff at Mark Harrell Horse Shows and the staff at Fox Lea Farm.
Western Pleasure
Lauren Louw showed She Will Be Hot for Gavin Patterson to win the Maturity Limited Open Western Pleasure.
“We’ve had her since last July,” Lauren said of the mare known as Adele. “She’s so strong and she has so much personality – she’s the sass queen. When she’s on, she’s on. She is so steady necked, big, pretty, and slow legged.”

“We’ve played around with Trail for a while, but we concentrated on other classes and just never showed it,” Troy said. “We decided to break out in it here in Florida. He’s been pretty good.”
