Saddle club sets show Friday at fairgrounds

Briarwood Saddle Club will hold 13 horse shows on Friday nights this year with the first being Friday, March 30, at 7:30 p.m. at the Marshall County Fairgrounds in Holly Springs.

Membership is not a requirement to ride, but will be required to receive year end awards.

One person of the top five this year in point standings will be awarded a colt donated by Gary and Candy Hundhausen of Hundhausen Farms. The colt will be sired by the Hundhausens American Quarter Horse stallion, Mac N Dash. The Hundhausens have donated a colt for the previous two years to support Briarwood.

Here is a list of all of the shows scheduled this year:
