PRESIDENT'S LETTER

Greetings MCHA!

2023 is here and is speeding by!  Show season has already started for some, and others are anxiously waiting to start theirs.  I’d like to thank our Montana Cutting Horse Association Board for putting together a nice 2023 show schedule that is as responsive as possible to the early 2022 survey that many folks took the time to respond to.  We are striving to make the Montana shows fun, well run, and somewhere everyone wants to show their horse!  Along those lines, I’d like to send a huge shout out to our sponsors.  Their support is INVALUABLE to the organization!

Thanks also to our show producers, show secretaries, cattle suppliers and handlers, and trainers who work tirelessly so we can “go cut”!  The cutting community is alive and well in Montana!

As we transition into 2023, I’d also like to thank Doug Pearce, past president, for his steady leadership in 2022.  If you see Wylie Fraser, Rick Anderson, Kelsey Fraser, and Tanya Dvarshkis, please take a moment to thank them for their service to MCHA as past Directors, as well.  

Please take a look at the show schedule and plan to attend as many of our shows as possible.  As of this writing, we still have a few kinks to work out so there may be a few adjustments over the next month or so, but good things are in the works.  And, fantastic year end awards are already in the making!

I’m anxious to see you at the shows and am looking forward to a great year of cutting for the Montana Cutting Horse Association!

Peri
