chucks ahoy!
i just saw my first chuckwagon races today at the medicine hat stampede grandstands. the 1 o’clock races with the miniature horses were absolutely adorable and at 2, the pro races began and after listening carefully to the explanation of the rules and the roles (okay i was busy asking questions and talking the entire time but eventually caught on) i was quite enthralled with the event and can’t wait until next year. here are just a few of the pictures i took.

Hey Corinne:
I am surprised that you say this is your first wagon race. I guess looks can be deceiving as I would take you as a good old country gal. To see that you have not attended is a bit surprising. None the less I am glad you enjoyed yourself. One question what did you mean by the miniature horse part of your report? Unless you know something I don't they are not miniatures they just run a scaled down track here in Medicine Hat.
Anyway welcome to the cowgirl way of life dear and keep up the great work!!!!
Cheers

seriously - they were actually miniature horses for the 1 o'clock race, at 2 the Pro Chuckwagon racing began. the first and third pictures are the "mini's" (see how tiny the wagons are compared to the parkers countrywide and taste of honey wagons which are the Pro's.
