The Spring Fling Dinner and Dance was a fantastic family gathering. The evening started with a roast beef dinner provided by the culinary expertise of Randy and Sandie Hirsekorn. Next up came the carnival games organized by Nicole Hirsekorn. The kids had a blast shooting cans, fishing for a "needle in a haystack", saddle ring toss, and a bean bag toss to mention a few. For each point you received a ticket you could use towards a chance to win an assortment of prizes. The dance portion of the evening followed with a great mix of tunes. Some lovely young ladies made sure we stayed in step on the line dances and of course no dance is complete with out the "Bird Dance". The highlight for all would have had to be young Austin's dance rendition to I'm Sexy and I Know It or maybe perhaps when he left his sister high and dry on the dance floor so he could tie his shoe, repeatedly. Finally when you got to hot from all the dancing there were even Ice Cream Floats to cool you down. They sure thought of everything! For our first social event of 2013 it was a smashing good time!  A huge Thank You to everyone who attended, all the volunteers and the Hirsekorn Family for making this event a success.

Spring is about "NEW", new boots because the mud swallowed your last pair, a new coat because your horse's hair has now become embedded in your old one, and a new website for our club! We still have to wait a bit for new grass and new flowers, but as the snow melts we can foresee it's arrival on the horizon. 

I'm very excited about the "new" in our club too. This year we will be taking on more new shows, more new trail rides, and more new activities! Sitting in at the general meetings and seeing the new faces of club members, eager to get involved and enjoy this wonderful breed with like minded, great people is what will set the tone for this year and the years following. 

This site has been designed to, in conjunction with our Facebook page, create a dynamic interactive link for our club members. 
Events Calendar: a list view of events and interactive monthly calendar 
Member List: E-mail contact for members
Youth: Celebrating the future leaders of our breed
Comprehensive TWH: For competitive and non-competitive TWH related adventures

Our goal is to have everything a member needs right here on this site, to read, download or just view.

This web site needs our members help to retain it's "newness". If you have any of the following at anytime, please e-mail the webmaster Koren LeVoir and she will do her best to get it updated quickly. 
* Horses for sale: picture & write up.
* Pictures of what you do with your horses
* Blog ideas
* A quote about why you got into TWH or an anecdotal story involving a TWH

I look forward to many NEW adventures with the great members of TWHAWC!
