Raising Funds To Go To The World Show In November

[equiss]

Hi All,

I haven't posted for a while, but have been busy with work and trying to get my leatherwork in as I can....but I have almost qualified in amateur reining for the AQHA World show in November. This is a real honor for me, and would be a tremendous honor and experience just to be able to attend.

A little about me: I work full time as a software analyst, currently I am also going to school and am finishing my pre-requisits for nursing school and have applied for fall 2010 admission to Oregon Health Sciences University. In my spare time (all I can fit in) I am learning how to build saddles, but also do the gamut of smaller leather goods, and visit here when I can.

I made a"newsletter" to send to local businesses, but as of yet haven't sent it out - but I attached a copy of it here that explains a little about what reining is (my event), what the World show is, and I am trying to raise at least 1/2 of the amount needed to go. (about $2000), the sponsorship form, and some pictures of Rudy and I. So I thought I would share my dream with you, and if you want to help us get to the World, anything is appreciated. If not, and just want to hopefully cheer me on, that is great too! This is a great community, and I appreciate everyone who has spent time replying to my endless "pleas" for help on my projects!

Thanks all!

Hope everyone had a happy Easter!
