President's Message HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLUE EARTH!!! The Blue Earth show will be 20 years old this year. Not only will the show be taking place for the twentieth time, we are expecting the biggest show ever in the United States! Last year, BE had 120 horses. This year with Fjord enthusiasts coming to help celebrate, we are anticipating an even bigger show. None of this happens without active members who volunteer to put all of this on from the show chairperson to the person who opens and closes the gates at the show ring. THANK YOU to each and every member who volunteers to work on the show, organizes the winter meeting and clinics, publishes the newsletter, puts on the auction, establishes the MWFHC website, and serves on the Executive Committee and every other job it takes to keep this club running. We have a FANTASTIC club and I have been proud to serve as the president. I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting all of you. I hope that I have helped move the club toward the future. As Chuck prepares to become president, please welcome him as you did me, help him as he figures things out (remember he didn't have two years as vice-president to get ready for this) and be prepared to follow him as he leads our club into the coming years. He will do a great job! Thanks for all of your support and Happy Fjording!

It's A Boy! Welcome Max! Max was born on May 7, 2005 at 9:15 p.m. to Mark and Lorrie Tolmie from the Rollinghills Stable in Arcadia, Wisconsin. He is the son of Dina and WH Stone. What a handsome boy he is, and he's a frisky fella, keeping his mom on her toes.
Rollinghills is a private stable located in the heart of God's country. We'd like to think of this area as a community of horse enthusiasts who enjoy spending time with each other in equine-related activities. Our stable offers a wide variety of different activities: riding lessons for the young and young at heart, training for both horse and rider, day camps, clinics to improve your handling and riding skills, educational group activities, boarding for lesson clients and, new this year, pony parties! Call Lorrie if you wish to participate in any of these activities. Mark is a certified farrier since 1975 and he attends farrier clinics yearly to update his knowledge. Mark's love for horses has led him to working full-time as a farrier. If you are in the 100 mile radius of Arcadia, Wisconsin, you now have a new farrier in your neighborhood. Please feel free to call Mark for your hoof care needs. Mark and Lorrie now own four Norwegian Fjord Horses, all purchased from Jim and Vicki Hovre of Iduna Acres Fjords. The Tolmie's can be reached at (608)323-2200 or rollinghills.stable@verizon.net
