Every time we go to a show, there's a plethora of "stuff" we take along. For the next 2 weeks we're showing in our own backyard at the National Capital Show Jumping Tournament, which is approximately 20 minutes from Westar Farms. Distance from home didn't seem to matter as we managed to bring just about everything except for the kitchen sink. Here's an abbreviated list, no wonder we needed a truck!
