PICKETT HORSE CLUB
Our meeting for September 16th was held as a open discussion only, due to the absence of a quorum.
A few topics that were discussed include planning a trip to Delavan, WI to The Dancing Horses Theater. This is Wisconsin's #1
must see attraction of the Dancing Waters Spectacular. According to Trip Advisor "this dazzling spectacle features an array of horse
breeds who perform alongside their trainers in this fantastic cavalcade of equestrian artistry. Visually stunning, and performed in a stateof-the-art, yet intimate, 300-individual, padded seat theatre. This live show is truly a must-see for any horse lover." The venue is wheelchair accessible & fully climate controlled for all seasons.
With that being said, the Pickett Horse Club is extending an invitation to the community to join us at your expense, the price is
undetermined at this time (but should be very affordable) as we are in the process of inquiring show dates (trying for a special Christmas
Show Nov - Jan) and pending on the demand for hiring a coach bus to take us. Please contact club President, Les Achterberg at 920-7483230 OR club Treasurer, Sharon Oliver at 920-589-2794 for information as this is a time sensitive matter if you wish to join us. Please
leave a message including your name & daytime phone # and your call will be returned.
October meeting date has been changed to Monday October 6th beginning at 7 pm
There a 2 birthdays for the month of October. We would like to wish our Queen, Quinn Silloway a very happy 18th
birthday on the 8th and a very happy birthday to Kathy Hilscher on the 27th. Enjoy your special day ladies.
Also club Queen, Quinn Silloway participated in the Wisconsin State 4-H Horse Expo that was held September 11th - 14th in
the greater Milwaukee, West Allis area. Quinn accomplished the following placements:
