The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, July 24, 1996 - A7 _ Learn To FLY? For As Little As BG 10 SS ~*~ No horse show By JENNIFER MCLARTY —The interior News THE MYSTERIOUS sore mouth disease affecting horses in Terrace, Burns Lake and Smithers has claimed its latest victim — the Fall Fair. Late last week Bulkley Valley Exhibition organizers an- _ hounced that the Light Horse, American Quarter Horse and Draft Horse shows have been canceled due to a significant decrease in the number of contestants, “We could run the events with the estimated one-third of people who would still show up,”’ says Bulkley Valley Ex- hibition president Graeme Johnstone, ‘‘But it would be at a very large expense. Instead we decided to cut our losses and cancel the competitions,”’ According to Johnstone, it would essentially cost the same amount of money to host the shows, but with fewer - entrants and less revenue from camping and rental fees to _ offset the expense of ribbons, judges and trophies, the fair would be left with a net loss, Last year there were 220 entries in the light horse com- petitions alone, with close to 70 in the heavy horse pull. With the sore mouth scare, fewer than 100 entrants had booked for this year’s events. Every year the fall fair depends on the heavy horse events to draw large crowds and boost gate revenues. “There’s no two ways about it the heavy horse show was a puller, to use the pun,”’ Johnstone says. To offset the poteatial impact on attendance numbers, a fully sanctioned rodeo using horses from Alberta and Dawson Creek has been scheduled, _“'They’ve been notified about the problem here, but they || Al | m oved in don’t seem concerned. There would be little or no contact with local horses.’?
