Re: RC: Liberty Run Reports?

To clarify about the LONG vet-lines (I was there)...the ride had over 150
entries...a LOT for all those vets who were doing their best to make sure
everyone was okay...Dwight Hooton DVM even vetted TWO horses at one time (with
two recorders) to get the job done.  Next year Vickie Parker (ride mgr)
promises to hire 3-4 more vets at least for the first two vet checks.  Everyone
chipped in to get the job done they best way they could...just one of those
things........
