Good News - July/August 2000

This will be a regular installment of Bloodlines so that members can share exciting things in their lives and get to know each other better. Please send your GOOD NEWS! submissions to Chris Wallbruch by snail mail or e-mail....

-Our own Daralyn Wallace, starting July 1st, will be the new President of NAMHSA! This is a prestigious position and we congratulate Daralyn on her nomination. Chris Wallbruch will also be serving on the NAN Board as the Recording Secretary, a position newly created by the board.

-Maria Mazzacane recently graduated from night school this May, with a M.S. in Software Development and Management from Rochester Institute of Technology (she programs in C++ for a living). She did most of her classes via Distance Learning over the modem, and all of those five-minute breaks for reading model horse mail probably kept her from tossing out the computer on the days her program didn't work! Congratuations!

-Mary Vinyard is pleased to announce that the year 2000 has brought several new babies to the Vinyard Farm! Mary and her family have 2 new real baby Paint horses this spring - one filly, and one colt. Both were born healthy and are growing fast. You can see pictures of these cuties on the web at http://www.geocities.com/sassymiss_3/babypage.html Congratulations!

-Jean Sorensen also has a new horse baby in her life...Rio, aka Bud! He was born on May 28th between 8 pm - 10 pm. He is bay with 4 high socks, blaze, one blue eye (the Budweiser Clydesdale look). His mom is Queenie, a chestnut splash overo, and his dad is Bear/FL Mini Depth, a plain old bay. Congratulations!

-Chris Wallbruch is starting her Masters in Music Education this summer at Vandercook College on the south side of Chicago - right by Comiskey Park, home of the White Sox. She will be taking 12 hours a summer and will have completed her Masters in the summer of 2002.
