A Message from Tom Kirsch
ETI National President
Hello, to all.
We tried to have an in-person ETI National board meeting, but unfortunately
didn’t have a quorum. We opted for a phone conference meeting. We discussed
our July Convention and the problems the city is placing on us to have the Convention. Hopefully, next month
we will have a plan. The corrals for doing a good job of getting in their insurance payments. We still need some
corral officers list, so please get your information into the office.
The corrals are starting to put on shows and other activities, so please check the magazine for the upcoming
activities, and try to support these programs. This is very important to our organization. It is so good to see
people out riding. We need to make sure our trails are being used before developers decide to build condos on
the land.
ETI will be donating to the permanent mounting blocks fund in Griffith Park in honor of Lynn Brown. I think Lynn
would have been honored.
Hopefully by next month, we will have more information on events for the summer. I want to thank Danielle
Skaar for all her hard work putting together a new ETI High Point Program, and thanks to Cheri Ovayan for the
outstanding job she is doing with our Jr. Ambassador’s program. This is what makes ETI a great organization...
our volunteers.
Stay safe, and look out for each other.
Tom

ETI National will be donating toward this effort. Lynn was such a great asset to ETI
and all equestrians. What a great way to honor her memory!
Lynn Brown - Giving a Leg Up to Equestrians
For Lynn Brown’s memory to live on and inspire others
To honor this amazing woman, we are raising
money to put large concrete mounting blocks in
Griffith Park with a plaque dedicated to Lynn’s
memory. To a non-horse person, a mounting
block might sound like a funny memorial. As a
rider who gets on and off her horses at Martinez
every week, I can't think of a better way to honor
a woman who gave so much to us all than to let
her memory give us a "leg up" when we ride.
If we can raise enough money, we can put
several blocks in the smaller parts of Griffith
Park serving Glendale and Burbank riders such
as Easter Field and Pollywog Park and support
other horse initiatives around the park. We have
received a unanimous approval vote from the
Griffi
G iffith
hPParkk Ad
Advisory
i Board
B d to iinstallll these
h first three mounting blocks.
Please give generously to support the memory of a woman who gave so much to all of
us, Lynn Brown.

Corral 14 Western Wagons Spring Play Day
Written by Linda Elder, Corral 14 Secretary
Nora Moran hosted a wonderful Play Day at her ranch The members who came to participate on the course
in Barstow, California. The weather was pleasant were Sue and Kevin Martzolf with their team of
(sunny with a slight breeze), and Nora had snacks and
breakfast items available when we arrived, as well as
a cooler with water. There were shaded bleachers for
the spectators and participants to sit on, and Corral 66
had set up a raffle as a fund raiser for their Corral. We
had a good turnout of Corral 14 members to participate
as well as some who just came to watch and cheer
us on. The Friday before, Nora, Jeanette Hayhurst,
and Sue Martzolf set up a challenging obstacle course
and used Sue’s team and wagon to help adjust the
distance between the cones and size of the keyhole.
The course included a keyhole, turn box, bridge,
backing dock, cones/poles and a figure 8. They also
included a separate log skidding area. The course was
designed so we could drive our teams or singles on
the ground or hooked up to a wagon or cart. Before
lunch, everyone was encouraged to practice on any
of the obstacles and even the complete course if they
wanted. Sue Martzolf assisted some of the members in Haflingers, Judy Zimmerman with

practicing the log skidding.
Following lunch we had a “friendly competition”. Jamie
Rees, Margaret Graessle, Jeanette Kelley and Jean
Bredelis, members of Corral 66, volunteered to be our
judges. There was a cheering section of the members
waiting their turn to compete as well as the members
who just came to watch. Some of the members who
came to cheer us on were Katie and Chuck Christman,
new members Linette, Wes and Rachel Taylor along
with her brothers Michael and JJ, Beth Uzonyi, Jeannie
Gordon, and Rick and Janet Maness.

Despite the unpredictable mood swings in the weather this
Spring, I am still celebrating the arrival of Daylight Savings
Time. Evening rides are wonderful. I understand that, like
a woman, the weather does have the choice to change its
mind on a whim, but the variation in a day from hot and
sunny to cold and blustery is downright cruel. My son always
tells me before we set out on an adventure, “Dress for the
hike back, Mom”. Good advice this spring. Dress in layers,
and have several latigos on your saddle to tie your discarded

When I started writing this article, the sun was shining and
the snow covered Mt. Baldy shimmered in the warmth of
the rays. At this moment, the sky is grey and Mt. Baldy has
disappeared in a heavy shroud of dark rain clouds. There
will be no Alpine Glow on the mountains this evening. The
warm breeze has turned to an icy blast. Once again the ever
changing mood of this year’s Spring has made time in the
saddle a game of chance. As an optimistic soul, I am happy
that, at least, it is still light when I throw that flake into the
manger.

A letter from the President
With the devasting wildfires we have seen in recent months,
it is impossible to live in the area without knowing someone
who has been impacted. Two fires in as many months have
not only seen hills burned and evacuations of horses as well
as people but personal property of our members and many
others destroyed.
One such case is that of Sandi Dunn, a longtime resident

of Williams Canyon and member of ETI 357 (Saddleback house that burnt, the rest of us cleared the ground near the
Canyon Riders). The fire came raging through the canyon coop, brought in sand and began laying the stones to finish
burning property and homes and leaving the residents with rebuilding.
the devastation to clean up and rebuild. In Sandi’s case,
the fire miraculously skipped her home but did unimaginable
damage to her property and surrounding area. Her barn,
chicken coop and much of the outer structures on her
property were destroyed. During the fire, Sandi was forced
to open the doors of the chicken coop as the fire raged near
to save the lives her beloved chickens and guinea fowl.
In just about two hours, the paving stones were in place
and the chicken coop completed. This is what neighbors
and friends do for each other. I can’t help but think in this
current environment of discord we see in our country, there
are still plenty of kind people who give of themselves to
help each other. I am sure Sandi had no words to say how
appreciative she was. And the reality is the feelings one gets

ETI, a very large task of rebuilding Sandi’s chicken coop and
cleaning just some up the burnt rubble around her home Kristen Holden
became possible. On February 6th, a whole host of club
members gathered their rakes, shovels and tools to come to
Sandi’s aid. And as our former president and now Activities
Coordinator Jimmy I. has been known to say, “Many hands
make for light work.”
