(If you would like to add a thank-you or congratulations note, please e-mail pcbra_website@hotmail.com)

· To all the Volunteers and Board Members of the PCBRA. Thank You so much for doing such an amazing job at the 2008 Finals. My Family and I had such a great time. Sam Dilworth

· A very heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who voted for Beetle for Open Barrel Horse of the year. It's an extra special award for her to receive as she was injured this summer and I was concerned that she may not compete again, however she is expected to make a full recovery by spring. Thank you again...It really does mean a lot to both of us...
Also, CONGRATULATIONS to Sonny on receiving the Junior Barrel Horse of the year award.
Marti & Beetle

· I would like to thank Lisa Madge for organizing the saddle series. It's really awsome to have the opportunity to compete in an event of that magnitude right here in the North!

· Thank you so much to the PCBRA & the Turn Burn Earn Associations for co-sponsoring the saddle in the 1D. I'd like to acknowledge all the sponsors and volunteers (gate people, rakers, announcers, recorders). Also, all of the contestants! That was a really exciting series in every division! A huge appreciation out to my mom and the rest of my "support" group...which in one way or another pretty much includes all of you. A special thank you to Jenny for helping me with all of my horses (there's no way I could do it without you! There really is no "I" in TEAM & I'm very blessed to have you on mine). Thank you to Bryan & Karren Ellingson at Westwin Farms for the opportunity to own one of the best I've ever rode. Last but certainly not least...THANX to Lance for the extra loud cheering! Congratulations out to Kelly & Jenny on their saddles...it looks good on both of you.
THANKS AGAIN!!! Marti & Beetle

· Thank you from our family
The family of LeaAnne Gagnon would like to express our thanks and appreciation for the prayers, thoughts, food, cards, flowers and visits. It meant so much to us knowing that your thoughts were with us in our loss. It's the thoughtfulness of friends such as you that will give us strength in the days ahead as we think of, and miss, LeaAnne. A special thank you to all the barn Mom's, we love and appreciate all of you.

You can shed tears that she is gone

Or you can smile because she has lived

You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back

Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left

Your heart can be empty because you can't see her

Or you can be full of the love that you shared

You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday

Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday

You can remember her and only that she is gone

Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back

Or you can do what she would want: smile, open your eyes love and go on.
