[RC] Horse safety - Jim Holland - OnefarmgirlI was so pleased to read in the "Convention News" of the great steps taken toward safeguarding the welfare of our horses. It sounds as if our hard-working representatives have done a terrific job channeling the emotion, intellect, and spirit of a few thousand individualists into a new model of ..... watchfulness for our horse partners. This was such an important start to address a painful but truly crucial issue! Not to minimize the role of many who obviously worked hard to obtain this strong beginning, but it would be hard to overstate the positive impact Jim Holland has had on this issue, and in turn on our sport. Jim was *the* key guy in bringing this issue forward, in speaking out clearly, simply & doggedly. He refused to be ignored & endured criticism & complacency to keep this important issue on 'page one'. Congratulations Jim, and thanks. I think you just won and BC'd the Big Ride.
