Congratulations to the Tri-State Saddle Club in their efforts to raise over $8,000 for the Dubuque County Fair Association a couple of weeks ago.  Kevin and Janell Kotz deserve special recognition for organizing the fund raising horse show at the Fairgrounds Horse Arena.  Below is a small part of a great email I received from Janell Kotz.......

The Tri-State Saddle Club had a record number of participants and spectators!  Between the riding events, the food stand, 50/50's, and auction items we will be paying it forward to the DCFA in the amount of $8,466.84  !!!. Kevin and I feel so lucky to be part of the Tri-State Saddle Club (a non-profit organization) and able to pay-it-forward to another non-profit such as the DCFA. Because of the wonderful relationship with the DCFA our Club has a beautiful Equine Park.  The DCFA staff and board members were a huge help.  And whenever they are around you know how much fun can be had!  Mary Gansen, Jean, Tammy …….  Wonderful… wonderful… Ladies…… and many many more DCFA.

Also thanks to Dubuque Auto Plaza, Doug Warthan, and Theisen's for their donations.

On behalf of all us here at WJOD, congratulations to everyone involved in this awesome event.  Thanks to everyone who attended, volunteered, or donated. Ken.
