ClayB Report post Posted February 9, 2007 I got a letter in the mail today from the LCSJ updating some of the workshops for the Wickenburg show. They have extended the deadline to sign up for the John Bianchi holster class and saddle week to Feb 20. Time has been changed on Allan Scheiderer's lacing class to Satuday March 10, 1:00-3:30 PM They have cancelled the rawhide bosal class with Bill and Teresa Black and the leather covered picture frame class with Dale Grabowski. It also says there is still room in all 35 classes for more students. I also got an email from Bruce Johnson correcting me on the dates for Ferdco's show in Elko, Nevada. The correct dates are April 20-21. The dates listed in the LCSJ are not correct. I think I have it right on the calendar on this site now. Thanks Bruce for straightening me out. Bruce also gave me the following info on that show. "Also they are having a saddle class - 3 days/two evenings by Joe Benner and Alan Dewey. I talked to Joe Benner today too. They are going to be building a Wade, and showing some variations of ground seats and laying in a seat. Some of the techniques from the old Hamley and Severe shop that are a bit different than most. That is tentatively scheduled to start on Wed the 18th and go through Friday. Talking of starting the class a bit later on Fri to allow the class participants to hit the trade show first, and not miss out on the "deals". Cost for the class is $300. Deposit due by April 3rd or something like that. The Elko ranch rodeo is that weekend too. Capriola's will be hosting a social Friday evening too, kind of like Kings do in Sheridan.

bruce johnson Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Clay, I talked to Ron at Ferdco about the Elko show today again. They have the saddle class dates as April 18-20. They have also added a Sherdian style carving class on April 19-20. It is limited to 10 students, and the cost is $200. It is being taught by Andy Stevens. Check out his work at www.andystevenssaddlery.com . Shades of Chester!! His work will knock your socks off. I want to take them both now. Ron said both classes will probably be repeated at the fall show in Pendleton OR. Another town steeped in leather tradition. More info on the Ferdco website - www.ferdco.com.

His styly is definately Sheridan done right but with it's own flair. It's clean and neat and I like it. Wish I could go to that class with you. Thanks for passing that along.
