Applications Due NOW for Horse Master with Julie Goodnight RFD-TV Shoot at the White Stallion Ranch in March 2014

 

Heidi Melocco, Horse Master with Julie Goodnight Producer

Tucson, Arizona: In every Horse Master episode, Julie Goodnight works with a horse and rider—helping them reach their horsemanship goals together while she offers up her practical and kind advice. In its seventh year on RFD-TV, the award winning Horse Master with Julie Goodnight show’s cast and crew is heading to Tucson, Arizona and the White Stallion Ranch (www.WhiteStallion.com). This is your chance to be a cast member on the show and to work with Goodnight at this premiere guest ranch. Applications are due now! Deadline: February 1, 2014; shoot week is March 9-14, 2014.

 

Apply online now for the March shoot and find more details about what it takes to be in the cast at www.HorseMaster.tv. Goodnight will choose a variety of cast members—those working on advanced riding maneuvers, those with challenges during ground work lessons, and those who would like to overcome obstacles on the trail or in the show ring. English and Western riders are welcome to apply. The set is closed to all but those selected to be on camera.

 

Goodnight travels with her production crew to new locations throughout the year. She’s thrilled with the thought of shooting at a ranch where she and her cast and crew can relax and enjoy the scenery after long working days. The crew (led by producer/director Heidi Nyland Melocco and her Whole Picture, LLC as well as Stephen Schott of 12Basket Productions) coordinates and records eight episodes during one “shoot week.”

 

Goodnight says she’s always ready to head to the warm, sunny Southwest for at least one shoot each season and the White Stallion Ranch is just the place.  This is the crew’s third shoot at the ranch and all are eager to work together once more.

 

As with all episodes, the eight shows shot at White Stallion Ranch will air on RFD-TV (DirecTV channel 345, Dish 231, and on cable outlets through FamilyNet) then be available to watch online on Goodnight’s online video library: http://tv.juliegoodnight.com. A new show airs each Monday night at 10:30 pm ET and that show repeats each Saturday night for West Coast viewers.

 

The True family’s White Stallion Ranch has over 3,000 acres of wide-open land and is based at the foot of the Tucson Mountains, adjacent to the Saguaro National Park. The Horse Master cast and crew will shoot at the main ranch and plans trail riding episodes to make the best use of the scenery. If you’re selected for the cast on this closed set, you’ll be treated to reduced rates to stay at the ranch.

 

Those wishing to stay and play after shoot week may participate in the ranch’s activities including guided trail rides and even time working cattle (it is a working Longhorn cattle ranch). You can also see where Western Movies such as Arizona with William Holden and How the West Was Won with James Arness were filmed.

 

If you and your horse are near Tucson and would love some down-to-earth help from Goodnight, this is your chance! Apply today. The next Horse Master shoot is scheduled for summertime in Colorado. If the crew is headed your way, make sure to alert your horse-loving friends. Being a member of the cast can be a life-changing experience—with time spent with Goodnight and her well-organized staff who will guide you throughout the casting and shoot-week experience. Stay tuned to Horse Master for more shoot locations or search for “Horse Master with Julie Goodnight” on Facebook. Check out Goodnight’s full line of horse training DVDs as well as books, training tools and gifts at www.JulieGoodnight.com.

Certified Horsemanship Association Wants to Help State Horse Councils

 

(November 2013) The Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) wants to help state horse councils raise some money while creating a great go-to list of accredited equine facilities and certified horseback riding instructors in their states.

 

This program includes the state horse councils reaching out to their equine facilities that might want to pursue CHA Site Accreditation for possible insurance discounts, marketing opportunities such as listings on websites like the American Horse Council Time to Ride site and others. The councils can also reach out to these same facilities to possibly host a CHA Certification clinic in 2014 for riding instructors who want to become certified.

 

“I really enjoyed being at the State Horse Council Coalition meeting in Raleigh, North Carolina last month,” says Christy Landwehr Chief Executive Officer for CHA. “Sue Gray, the Executive director of the North Carolina State Horse Council, did a great job putting on the event. CHA is excited to be able to help state horse councils in this way as they are the path to legislation in their states that benefit horse owners and enthusiasts.”

 

Please contact CHA at office@CHA-ahse.org or at 859-259-3399 to find out how your state horse council can become involved in this program.

 

The purpose of the Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) is to promote excellence in safety and education for the benefit of the horse industry. CHA certifies riding instructors, vaulting coaches, barn managers, drivers and trail guides; accredits equestrian facilities; publishes educational equine manuals, produces educational horsemanship DVDs, and hosts regional and international educational conferences that are open to the public. For more information please visit www.CHA-ahse.org or call 859-259-3399.  To find a certified horseback riding instructor or accredited equine facility near you visit www.CHAinstructors.com.
