Well, week one concluded yesterday under overcast skies and drizzling rain, however for the most part, Mother Nature finally cooperated this Spring to deliver us some decent weather for the record 399 horses that attended the first week of the Bow Valley Classic. The management team here at RMSJ wishes to thank everyone for their excitement and words of support for our efforts over the past year to significantly improve our facility to the standards that you have come to expect from us over the years. We will continue to work extra hard this year to deliver you some of the items that we have started to promise you, with the ultimate goal of becoming a show venue that exhibitors from around the province can enjoy all year round. As you know, our team's love of the sport comes before anything, and we are glad that we are making you, our customers, happy. Again, please note that none of the things that we are doing at the ranch would be possible without all of your support. It was great to see the level of competition this week for all of the divisions at the tournament, and would like to congratulate all of the champions in every division, and the following list of competitors who took home top spot in some of the feature events:
