Midwest Horse Fair

Madison, Wisconsin - The CHBOA was proudly represented by board member, Mary Semerak-Rennick and her classic champagne colt, Banners Champagne Punch. They participated in the parade of breeds at noon each day on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

We would like to thank Mary for all of her hard work promoting the champagne color and the CHBOA, and recognize Diane Grattifiori of Deerfield Wisconsin for her participation.

Of particular note was the behavior of Banners Champagne Punch. He had only arrived from his breeder in Utah two weeks beforehand, yet he did a GREAT job promoting and was very tolerant for a 6 month old colt. He had to deal with wall-to-wall crowds, carriages, covered wagons, barking dogs, trucks, and horses whizzing by - and he took everything in stride! His kind manner and gentle ways earned him numerous hugs and kisses from little girls attending the fair.

He even caught the attention of Bob Bosold from WAXX104 Country who is writing an article for a magazine about this extraordinary colt.
