June 13-14, 2009
Thanks to Rayanne Engel (Miss Rodeo California 2004 and Western Horseman magazine representative) and Bob Fox, I had two days of shopping, signing autographs, and meeting many individuals at the California Horse Expo in Sacramento, CA. The event included entertainment in all areas of equestrian disciplines, including Mounted Shooting, the Mustang Challenge, the Driving Darby, and Horse Sale.
At the Expo were many of the Miss Rodeo California Pageant sponsors: Boot Barn, Platinum Performance, and Ariat (available within booths). At the Platinum Performance booth I had a ton of fun with Lindsey and Sarah. Sorry Lindsey for leaving you at the booth alone while my shopping partner-in-crime, Sarah, and I shopped around for the revolutionary, age-defying lotion we found. At least we let you try it, right? At Boot Barn I was able to work with Jon Grudmeye and Ray Mayfield on getting a table up to sign autographs, as well as display my gorgeous Kelly Kaminski saddle labeled "The Shining Star." At Western Horseman I signed more autographs with Rayanne, Ernie, and Bobby close by. And finally, it was off to the California Horse Council with Bob Fox to draw the winning ticket for their raffled Vaquero saddle. Miss Grand National, Shannon Walker, and Miss California Rodeo Salinas, Blair Smittcamp, did a great job selling raffle tickets, and the winning ticket belonged to a man who had only bought one ticket in the entire pot!
