Thom Brede
Harrodsburg, KY — October 29, 2009 — The 2010 Gulf Coast Winter Series has become the hot topic among the equestrian community from coast to coast. Under the management of Bob Bell and Janet McCarroll, the Gulf Coast Winter Series has just announced the addition of Thom Brede to assist Allen Rheinheimer this season as a Technical Director. “Thom’s been managing large horse shows for years, he’s one of the most sought after hunter judges, and brings a host of talents to our series,” Bell shared.
While it’s expected that Brede’s primary focus will be on the hunter divisions, Bell added that having Brede’s wealth of knowledge on hand would be an even greater asset to ensure exhibitors needs can be anticipated in and out of the rings. “Tom has been part of some of best horse shows in our country and working with Allen Rheinheimer, I am sure our circuit will be better for it,” Bell said.
Held at the Harrison County Equestrian Center in Gulfport, MS, 2010 will mark the 11th year of the winter series. This year’s six-week event runs February 10th through March 21st. Looking for an expression of gratitude to their many loyal exhibitors co-chairs Bob Bell and Janet McCarroll knew the perfect gift. Bell said, “With all the changes our country is going through we decided to make some changes for the good of our exhibitors. One is by maintaining the same pricing we’ve had since 2008.” Also returning will be the “U Pick UP” feed and bedding at reduced prices. There will be specific times of day, both morning and afternoon, where the exhibitors can meet show staff at the feed – bedding trailers to purchase their needs and save money by not having the goods delivered to their stalls. If preferred the show will still offer the normal feed and bedding delivery service. Details, prices and hours will be posted in the show office.
