October 14, 2013:
Clinician and TV Host Julie Goodnight announces her 2014 Clinic Tour Schedule—with opportunities to ride, meet Goodnight and ask horsemanship questions. Learn what will help you progress with your horse during these “up-close and personal” events. Sign up to ride or get tickets to watch now>> http://juliegoodnight.com/clinics

In 2014, Goodnight travels to Tennessee, Kansas, Ohio (two clinics), California, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Colorado (multiple appearances), Georgia and Wisconsin for 2-day clinics.
Goodnight’s clinics offer a time to learn in a positive, fun, intimate environment. This is your time to ask Goodnight about your horse; it’s your time to ride with her so that you know exactly what she’d do next to help you reach your goals. Each of her clinic tour stops provides an opportunity for horse owners to ride with her. Audiences are also invited to watch and learn in a friendly environment.
Clinics are fun and active, with a focus on bridging natural horsemanship techniques with the principles of classical riding. Expect to work together in the arena all day, doing both ground work and mounted work, with a focus on refining riding skills and developing a better relationship with your horse. All ability levels are welcome; each rider works at his/her own pace.
Clinic participants are eager to ride with Julie each year—and riding spots fill quickly! “I attended a clinic with my mare, and it was the highlight of my summer!” says past clinic attendee, Kate Westfall. “I felt so connected with my horse during the clinic and have continued a wonderful relationship. Julie shared a lot of knowledge and taught in a patient but no-nonsense way. The exercises were simple, safe, effective and easy to reproduce once I got home. This was a gem of a clinic and worth every penny!”

Troxel Redesigns Best-Selling Western Helmet

 

San Diego, CA – Aug 12, 2013 – Troxel LLC, the worldwide leader in ASTM/SEI-certified equestrian helmets, announced today the launch of their redesigned low profile Sierra western helmet, the result of years spent on research and development efforts based on customer feedback.

 

The Sierra helmet has been completely redesigned with an entirely new low profile, but will be instantly familiar to the hundreds of thousands of Sierra helmet owners around the world. Engineered for riding extremes, the Sierra’s new riveted Cordura® and leather covering not only looks good, but also withstands the toughest terrain on the trail.

 

“We couldn’t be more pleased with the redesigned low profile Sierra,” said Shay Timms, CEO of Troxel. “To create it, we brought together a team with a broad range of expertise from design to engineering. With what we’ve been able to achieve together, we see the Sierra continuing to thrive as our best-selling western helmet.”

 

The Sierra’s excellent ventilation, self-adjusting CinchFit™ Pro and mesh covered vents have made it the trail rider’s number one helmet choice. 

 

To celebrate the new look, Troxel has teamed up with product ambassador Julie Goodnight, Jeffers Pet and Westgate River Ranch for an enter-to-win “Sierra Sweepstakes,” running August 15 – September 15 on Troxel’s Facebook page: (https://www.facebook.com/TroxelHelmets).

 

“The Sierra style has long been my favorite helmet because of its unique Western style,” said Horse Master Julie Goodnight. “I'm so excited it is now available in a low profile shape--the same great aesthetics in an updated profile. Plus, the new fit system is such a great addition. It's cushioned and comfortable!  I strongly believe in the importance of wearing a helmet while riding and it's great to be stylish too!”

Available in black, tan and an updated modern brown, the redesigned Sierra will be available in September 2013 from select retailers and catalogs at an MSRP of $119.95.

To view the new low profile Sierra, please visit http://www.troxelhelmets.com. High resolution lifestyle and product images are available at http://www.troxelhelmets.com/media.

EQUINE FEED OAT PROJECT ANNOUNCES FREE OATS FOR A YEAR WINNER




FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                                                                 Media Contact: Scottie Ellis
                                                                                                            270.724.3181



Promotion in partnership with Julie Goodnight of Horse Master

LOUISVILLE, Ky. August 1, 2013 – The Equine Feed Oat Project (EFOP) has selected Marlene Bourgeois of Sedalia, Colorado,  the winner of free oats for a year. The contest received more than 900 subscribers with Bourgeois selected at random. The contest was conducted in partnership with Julie Goodnight of Horse Master on RFD-TV, which EFOP sponsors.

“Being selected to receive free oats for a year was a wonderful surprise,” said Bourgeois. “I have been feeding oats to horses for more than 40 years and in my opinion oats are the safest cereal grain. My horses have all led very healthy lives and I personally believe their feed plays a part in that.” 

Bourgeois, who has three horses, will receive a bag of oats once a month for a year from her local feed store, Rampart Feed and Pet in Castle Rock, Colorado provided by the EFOP. Bourgeois owns a 10-year-old Missouri Foxtrotter named Cassey’s Custom Cruiser, a 17-year-old Missouri Foxtrotter Gelding named Midnight Ebony Prince and a 23-year-old Appaloosa Mare named Cricket.

“Our sponsorship of Horse Master with Julie Goodnight has helped us learn how many horse owners love feeding their horses oats because it is a natural, safe and healthy grain,” said Randy Strychar, EFOP Project Director.  “This was our opportunity to help one lucky horse owner continue to feed oats to their horses with the help of Julie Goodnight.”

The EFOP is an initiative of the Prairie Oat Growers Association (POGA), which represents 15,000 Canadian oat growers. EFOP began the sponsorship of Horse Master with Julie Goodnight in November of 2012. Dedicated horse owners like Marlene Bourgeois tune in weekly to RFD-TV for Horse Master, airing on Mondays and Saturdays.
