Fisher says, "It is important for everyone to order and pay or have their blank checks in for stalls and shavings on or before Monday, April 17th, 2017. This gives trainers an opportunity to talk to their customers the week of the Trainers' Show. Due to the enormous amount of expense that the show incurs in ordering the temporary stalls and reserving the shavings supply the show will only be able to order stalls and shavings for those ordering and paying in advance or sending blank checks. Reservations are needed because there is limited stall space avaliable; however, if you pay by the deadline, there should not be any problems having a stall and shavings for everyone.
The Owners, Trainers & Exhibitors Party will be held on Wednesday, April 26th, at the Milligan home on beautiful St. Andrew Bay, Panama City Beach, for owners, trainers and exhibitors and sponsors actually participating in the show.
All headline entertainment TBA for pre and post show performance April 27-29, 2017. The Gulf Coast Charity Celebration is sure everybody will enjoy all the entertainment that they have lined up for this year's event. There will be food vouchers, merchandise vendors and kiddie rides and amusements for the children and fun for the entire family. Back by popular demand for your Thursday, Friday and Saturday morning workouts is Royce Reagan!
