A big "Thanks" goes out to those who participated in our Princess Anne Hunt Stirrup Cup, Saturday, February 19th, 2011. Thanks to Nancy Morris, Carolyn Davis, Beth Wise, Aimee Swenson, Judy Haley, and Jenny Bozwell for all of the food, stirrup cup refreshments, fancy silver trays and glasses, and Debbie Downs for her floral arrangement. I believe we certainly impressed Princess Anne members. All those who assisted in preparing the tables for the stirrup cup were invited by Princess Anne members to stay for their hunt breakfast after the hunt. Everyone had a grand time!!!!!!
