You all did a great job in the parade and the travel channel sounds like it gave you the best coverage. However, since I did not see the other channels it is difficult to compare. The did mention that the breed was new to the Rose parade.
RFD TV did the worst job covering the breed at Equi-fest. The write-up that was provided to the announcers in the arena was good and you could hear it over the television. The commentor for RFD TV was all over the place describing the breed as draft ponies. I was very disappointed with her performance. The group looked great during their time in the arena, the story was great, the carriages looked wonderful and the horses were well-behaved and well received by the audience. Also congratulations on getting the Haflinger into the opening with the grand entrance of the Rose Queen and her court being pulled in a carriage by a team of Haflingers. Both horses looked great and really carried the group around the arean in style. Both horses were beautiful, I especially loved the one on the outside, but then I am a mane guy and that long flowing snow white mane was gorgeous.
So a final thanks to all who participated and supported the group in the events. you certainly provided the breed with some great and well deserved publicity.
