PS , if anyone is looking for a nice mounted shooting horse, Diane has been working with a wonderful 12-year old Sorrell, who is just about done with training.  Diane rode him today, and got overall fast time on a Stage 1 time only.  The horse is  15.1 hands.  Info on the horse will be posted to our website in the near future, but if you’re interested, please contact Diane.  Asking price is $4,500.  (Charlie – this has your name written all over it!).

Hi Everyone,  

 I recently received an email from CSA stating that effective immediately all competitors in a CSA sanctioned event, including practices, must be an active member of the CSA. This change is due to the insurance policy. I have attached the letter so that everyone can have a copy of the notice.  CSA Insurance Update

If everyone could please reply and let me know if you have joined CSA and your member number I would greatly appreciate it. Remember if you have not joined you can still do so. Membership fees start at $25 for individual and $45 for the family, and is good for one year. The application can either be filled out online or mailed in. If you would like to apply online you can do so here: http://www.cowboymountedshootersstore.com/product40.html . I have also attached the printable application for your convenience.  CSA Membership Application

I know many of you have not joined CSA due to it not being required previously. Unfortunately if we dont get the CSA membership up this will cause us to increase the prices to participate.  

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I can be reached by email, phone, text, and on facebook.  

Don't forget to check our website and facebook page for updates. 

Thanks,

Carmela Martinez-Saenz

Kathy and Klaus Ramsey graciously hosted an amazing end-of-year party.  In keeping with our tradition, food and venue were outstanding.  Thanks a million. 

Just wanted to take this final opportunity to formally thank the 2011 board (Tim, Lance, and Kathy) for all the hard work and great support, this year.  Our events were truly team efforts and could not have been accomplished without each of your valuable contributions.  Thanks again to our scorekeepers and announcers (Shannon and Julie), who ensured our events ran smoothly and accurately, to our generous sponsors for their donations, and to everyone else who helped during events.  And most importantly, thanks to all the Sin City Mounted Shooters and their families who helped make 2011 our most successful year, ever!  

It has been an honor and a pleasure serving as your president for the last four years.  Let me be the first to congratulate Tim Ruiz (President), Mark Hinds (Vice President), Carmela Jo Martinez (Secretary), and Tiffany Bonnell (Treasurer).   I am confident that this newly elected board will continue our tradition of professionalism, exciting matches, fun practice events, and will help take our club to the next level.  Best of luck!

PS  Look forward to shooting as a regular ole’ member, again. Woohoo!

Utah State match results have been posted on our website, below.

Pics are coming soon.  Hope everyone had a blast.  To those who attended, thx for the outstanding support.  To those who couldn’t make it – you missed a good one! Maybe next year?

Congrats to our overall Cowboy and Match Champion, Royce Anderson, to our Overall Cowgirl, Kim Clark, and to our Showcase winner, Nancy Crosby!

Thanks to Bob Bergren, the WestX Coordinator, for his generous sponsorships and for making this a memorable weekend.

Finally, a big thanks to the SCMS board and my entire support staff for pulling this off.

PS  The management at WestX and PBR have insisted that we return, next year.  They were thrilled with our event and the professionalism with which we conducted ourselves.  Thx again!

So my daughter correctly pointed out that I neglected to mention the Utah State Wrangler Open and Wrangler Limited Mounted Shooting Champions for 2011 (Samantha Ostrovsky-WRO and Terran Stoller-WRL).  Congrats! And sorry for the omission.

Attention Mounted Shooters of Nevada:

Time to get ready for our annual Nevada State Championship on Saturday and Sunday September 11-12.
The shoot will begin Saturday night at 6pm, and continue Sunday Morning.  Registration closes Friday night, the 10th, and check-in is Saturday afternoon at Bonnie Springs Ranch.
Expecting great weather, lots of prizes, and of course buckles for the winners.

Now for some news.  Last weekend, six members of Sin City Mounted Shooters represented their club proudly in Flagstaff, Arizona and in Pismo Beach, California. 

Tim and Shannon Ruiz competed in Flagstaff at a 2-day event in which Tim shot clean and claimed his first Men’s Division 1 victory!  Way to go, Tim.

On the west coast, yours truly and his faithful companion, Turbo, took Men’s Division 3, as well as the overall match title, claiming the 2010 California State Mounted Shooting Championship for Nevada.  My son, Mitchell and companion Jazzy, brought back their first ever Wrangler Division title and is the reigning California State Wrangler champion!  Lance Ujifusa and companion Garth ran exceptionally well in the Mens Eliminator event against some fierce competition, taking home over $100 in cash.  And Concha Wade claimed the 3rd place prize in Lady’s Division 3.

Thanks to all for representing your club proudly and professionally.  See you at State!  And don’t forget to register online.
