Pamela Britton-Baer chronicles the tale of her first
experience judging a horse show.
Recently, someone asked me to judge a 4-H horse show.
I’ll admit, I was flattered. Being asked to judge is almost
a rite of passage. Someone thought enough of my abilities that they reasoned I
could judge little kids.
It brought tears to my eyes.
I said, “Yes,” of course, after making sure my day as a
volunteer wasn’t against amateur status rules. Now, I’m a big believer in looking the part. When I first
started doing showmanship, I had the blingiest darn clothes you’ve ever seen –
even if I didn’t know what a pull turn was. So, the morning of the show, I
donned what I thought was appropriate judge’s attire.
