Dakota Bids ‘Au Revoir’ From Florida

The Winter Circuit has wrapped up here in Florida, but not without a final send off party at Fox Lea Farm. The weather finally cooperated for the exhibitors, even if just for one day!  I feel like I've been in Florida forever! I guess I kinda have, at least since before Thanksgiving. But before I head north, I want to fill you in on all the goings-on from the sunshine state! 

Dakota Takes You Inside Rita Crundwell’s Birthday Bash

Although it was a frigid 35 degrees, Rita Crundwell’s annual birthday party heated up the beachfront patio Sunday night at the famous Sharky’s restaurant in Venice Beach, Florida. Industry leaders traveled to Venice from many parts of the country just to attend the party which was one of the premier events of the year. It was just the shot in the arm needed by weary horse show exhibitors who have been braving unseasonably cold temperatures for several weeks during the Florida Winter Circuits.

Dakota Diamond Griffith Asks The Experts: “What’s Your New Year’s Resolution?”

What is up with New Year’s Resolutions? Where did they originate and does anyone really ever follow through on them? Most of us have a certain commitment phobia to begin with but we find it especially hard when it comes to making a resolution. Carl Yamber actually playfully jumped in his truck to attempt a fast get-away when I pressed for his. I felt like the paparazzi chasing Tiger Woods. Just kidding, but it does put people on the spot if only for a day.  We all know I'm not above putting people on the spot though, so I asked some of the leaders in the industry, "What's your New Year's Resolution?"

Dakota Diamond Griffith Checks in From the Florida “Cold” Coast

Greetings from the “COLD” Coast. This is definitely one of my favorite shows of the year but I think we all enjoy it a little more when the weather is warmer! However, the heat has been on for Trainer Bowl votes! Trainer Bowl mania has hit down here big time. You should have seen people literally scrambling to and from the show pen Sunday night to cast votes for their favorites at the end of Round One. I plan to catch up with a few of the participating trainers while we're here.

Dakota Diamond Griffith’s Last Minute Gift Suggestions

Happy Holidays y’all! I’m happy to be back blogging for my favorite website GoHorseShow.com, but I am feeling super pressure right now. The end of another year is approaching, and some of us (like me!) are still chasing precious horse show points and I haven’t finished my Holiday shopping! Any of you readers need some last minute help like I do? Come on, even Ebenezer Scrooge came through with presents at the end of the story, so there will be no excuse for a Bah Humbug from any of us this year.
