The NEFHC Classic  Horse Show
was held on July 23-25, 2010 
It was a Huge Success
- Thank You One and All -

Hello NEFHC Members and Friesian Enthusiasts!

Wow, what a fantastic show at Topsfield we had this past weekend !   It was truly wonderful to see such a large number of members, participants and their horses at our NEFHC Classic show!   For the first time ever, All stalls were sold out, overflow of participants were working from their trailers and we just may have had the largest number of horses and class entries ever attended.   It was a huge success.  Thank you to everyone for making this all possible.  Many, many long hours and hard work went in to the setup and production of the show and it was truly apparent that everyone's efforts paid off from everyone who was in the forefront, in the spotlight, and to those working very hard behind the scenes to make it all happen.  An exceptional group effort, thank you one and all !

We already have next year's Friesian Classic dates set.  SAVE THE DATE!  July 22, 23 & 24, 2011.  All June dates are already reserved for other events, and if next year is anything like this year, where this July was cooler than June ! (gotta love New England), then it'll be another great show.  A little on the warmer side, it did not hinder our New Englanders from turning out, however, we were sent some disappointing news just days before the show as Lolke 371 Sport and Tonjes 459 both could not make it due to the extreme heat in the south.  Maybe next year

   We have results on their way from our show manager, Rick Drew, and a compilation of pictures from Eighth Generation Photos coming in and will share them as soon as they become available. 

Again, thank you all for everyone's participation.  A group effort, from each and every one of you, the show was Your Success!!!

Happy Trails,

~ Peter Ierardi, President

The online breeding auctions were a tremendous success for the NEFHC!  Bringing in over $2,500, we are very thankful to the support of our breeding donors who made it all possible.  A great big thank you to the Nanning 374 owners and NEFHC associate member Scott and Shelly Kelnhofer of Fenway Farms and Lolke 371 Sport owners John Howard of Escape Farm and co-owner Gloria Bowman of Belle Chevel Farm.  Since the untimely passing of Nanning 374, Scott and Shelly continue to live their Friesian dreams through their beloved Anton 343 Sport.    

Congratulations!!! go to members Sandra and Peter Ierardi of
Friesians of Tranquility
for their winning bid of the
Lolke 371 Sport Breeding Auction.
  Sandra and Peter say of their current 2009 Lolke 371 Sport filly, “We just absolutely adore our filly, Elsje Onyx.  She is incredibly sweet.  She is quite intelligent and has been enjoying her ponying experiences this summer with her aunts and uncles while her mom is away in training.  We are very happy to support the NEFHC with our winning bid and look forward to another wonderful breeding journey with John.   At the ready to answer any questions we had, John was very eager to please and easy to work with.  He is very fortunate to own such a magnificent stallion”
Thank you Sandra and Peter for your support of NEFHC.

The Friesian community mourns the loss of this magnificent and noble horse. 

Our deepest sympathies go out to Scott and Shelley Kelnhofer of Fenway Farms.
