10th Annual Charles Sumner Memorial National Racking Show A SUCCESS!!

Thank you to all the participants that came out and enabled the 10th Annual Charles Sumner Memorial National Racking Show to be such a success!

On June 11th the dark clouds rolled in and everyone gathered at the Gilmer County Saddle Club  prayed the rain would hold off just a little longer. Luck was on our side as the clouds blew past making way for a beautiful summer night.

So many beautiful horses were present making it hard, I’m sure, for the judge to make a decision.

Bingham Freelance Photography was also on site to capture the beauty of the horse’s and riders as they Racked On. Please visit their website to see some of the highlights of the night —- http://www.binghamfreelance.com/
