Larry and Tammy Lowe, as well as Zoey Dennler, took part in the All American Miniature Horse Club show at Kirkwood Equestrian Center in Cedar Rapids on June 12-13.
It was a good weekend for the three mini horses that they showed. Two of the horses were awarded two Grand Champions and three Reserve Grand Champion in Western Halter. The third horse received first in the Youth Halter.
They showed well in other classes including obstacle, color, liberty and showmanship.

Returning for the second year to "So Dear To My Heart" bed and breakfast are the "Pasadena Poets." Traveling with them is a friend, Caitlin Eady, who will also perform. They will entertain with older country music and also many originals they have written. The concert will begin at 7 p.m.
There will be an admission charged, and people are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and their own food and drinks to eat in the yard.
They were a big hit last year, and Brenda feels lucky to get them back as they tour across the country.
