(Calgary Show Jumping International Extravaganza) RMSJ is pleased was very pleased with the overwhelming response to the 2008 Mid Summer Classic. Over 300 horses have joined us for the tournament as well as 85 others who are attending the July Classic II. On our Team Cup day, we had 26 teams enter the Jumper Ring II event, while 16 teams joined us in the Grand Prix ring.On All in One Grand Prix day, 55 competitors entered the $10,000 Horse Sport Grand Prix, and 58 joined us for the $25,000 Subway Full Meal Deal Grand Prix. The most common thing exhibitors told us was that it was great to see a venue offer these types of competitions with that kind of prize money to the younger exhibitors of the sport who typically don't get to compete for those kinds of purses. It was great to see that junior and amateur riders were victorious in all four events! We look forward to hosting the same type of event in 2009!

With the attendance growth of the tournaments held at Anderson Ranch, RMSJ management needed to erect some stalls in the indoor arena. This had been done numerous times in the past, however with the installation of state of the art footing, the stalls had to be placed on some kind of floor to protect the footing. With a little bit of research, we found a company that provides oilfield mats to the oil and gas industry. Strive’s (patent pending) oilfield mats combine the strength of rig mats with the easy transport and handling of access mats.The floor was put in the indoor, and the stalls placed directly on top of the extermely durable mats. Everyone who was stabled indoors loved them, so we approached the company and asked if we could be the distributor of their Mats as well as their wood chip by-product to the equestrian and agriculture industry. Our industry is only a tiny fraction of the oilfield industry so they agreed.The uses of these Mats and Chip by-products are numerous to equine facilities, show venues, and private farms.Please feel free to contact us....more information will follow!
