Ridecamp: Re: [RC] FW: How to advertise a race

Thank you for the update - Your right I read, and read and read till I was
almost sick with what's going on - on a Wednesday afternoon I decided to
start reading again - and I see this - My stomach rolled.
So my apologizes for my quick reaction - I never post - Go figure.
Thank you Maryanne for taking a strong stance - and I will in the future
stay on top of all your posts - but remember- there may be others like me
who didn't get the sarcasm and only have a true feeling for those poor
horses that have no say!
I'm always thankful for any organization or person who will not allow this
to happen.
Once again - so sorry it was a reaction to so many weeks of hearing awful
stories.
