MUSICAL RIDE POST EVENT ARTICLE

2900 people of all ages were in attendance for the RCMP Musical Ride that on July 23 at Pine Rock Stables!  In the afternoon the crowd enjoyed music from Paul McIntosh and his band, a dog show by Steve Diamond and the Diamond Disk Dogs, Aboriginal dancing by John Hayden, Cristina Caribou, Buffy Handel and her 8-year old daughter Rain, and a horse presentation by the youth riders of Pine Rock Stables.  The Asham Stompers awed the large crowd with a 45 minute pre-show where 10 adult dancers and a few young dancers performed high energy Metis clog dancing. 

 The grand finale was the 30 minute presentation of the RCMP Musical Ride.  A deep feeling of Canadian pride spread through the crowd as the 32 horses with their riders were led to the show site by their leader.  John Usackis was on hand as the Guest of Honor to grant permission for the show to begin.  The crowd enjoyed a wide variety of cavalry drills and formations performed by horses and riders including the popular carousal and the charge.  Kristen McLean ended the show with the singing of O’Canada.  The horses and riders took pictures and met with the crowd before exiting the show site. 

 An event of this magnitude can only be successful with the support and effort of numerous people and organizations.  A most sincere THANKS to all our financial supporters, volunteers, organizers, entertainers and vendors.  CONGRATULATIONS WINNIPEG RIVER REGION ON A MOST SUCCESSFUL EVENT THAT WILL STAY IN OUR HEARTS AND MEMORIES FOR A LONG TIME TO COME!
