QUEEN CREEK, Arizona, January 27, 2009: Popular horse training expert Julie Goodnight (http://www.juliegoodnight.com and http://www.horsemaster.tv)  taped 6 episodes of her horse training television show, Horse Master in Queen Creek January 20-22, 2009. The shows--featuring six horses and riders from Arizona-- will air March-June of 2009 on RFD-TV, DirecTV 345 and Dish 231.
 
Tune in to see your local horse people and get a behind the scenes tour of the new Queen Creek, Horse Shoe Park and Equestrian Centre (http://www.queencreek.org/Index.aspx?page=196) where the shows were taped.
 
Goodnight, based in Salida, Colorado, travels frequently to tape episodes for her weekly show--which won Telly and Aegis production awards in its first year on the air. In the past, Goodnight and her crew (producer Heidi Nyland of The Whole Picture, LLC, and videographer and editor Steve Schott of 12Basket Productions, to name a few) have taped in Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, Los Angeles, California and Ocala, Florida. The crew chose to film in Arizona because of the area's mild winter climate. They were pleased to find the brand new Queen Creek equestrian facility was ready and welcoming for their shoot. Local horsewomen Lea Ann Fergusson and Vickey Wootten, both of Queen Creek, volunteered as “grips” during the shoot.
 
Goodnight says, "I was totally impressed with the facility—seems like every detail was considered and it is well-designed and well-crafted. What a great asset for your community! Not only will numerous people enjoy the events that happen there, but seeing all the local riders in the community arena each evening was really heart-warming. It was obvious that they appreciated having a nice place to ride and also being able to visit with neighbors. The staff at the equestrian center was so good to us and obviously took great pride in the facility. Everyone made us feel welcomed and it left us with a very good feeling about the folks in Queen Creek."
 
Clips of the show will be posted on Goodnight’s Youtube.com channel as they are prepared then will air on television in their entirety. Visit http://www.youtube.com/juliegoodnight to see clips of the show and keep up with Goodnight’s travels on Facebook and Twitter.
