Purpose Statement: The Buchanan Westerners Riding Club Incorporated is a non-profit organization run solely by its
membership. Our non-profit organization is dedicated to the American Family through their love of horses. Our goal is to be able
to continue supporting programs involving Horseback Riding for Handicapped Children, High School Equestrian, and 4-H Youth
Activities.
Buchanan Westerners was founded in 1946 and boasts a membership of about 125 members. Our membership runs on a
calendar year. Buchanan Westerners does not focus on any particular breed, although we are approved through PAC. We hold 2
shows each month from May through September in addition to various clinics and fun show events. Our annual banquet is held
in the late fall and offers several High Point awards, including age divisions as well as pleasure and gaming. We offer one primary
fund raiser per year; a Tack Swap held in the fall and a variety of smaller fundraisers throughout the year.
We have a website; www.buchananwesterners.org where many of your questions may be answered. If you have questions and
wish to speak to someone, the board of directors are listed on the website as well. Please call one of the officers of the board or
the horse show manager for more detailed questions.
Monthly meetings for Buchanan Westerners are the second Thursday of each month at 7:30pm at the Buchanan Westerners
clubhouse.
New for this year Buchanan Westerners is offering a high point award for Novice exhibitors. We encourage those that are just
getting started in the walk/trot/canter classes youth or adult, to join in this division. We also offer a couple of Walk/Trot classes for
adults and children, which are restricted to Walk/Trot only. Exhibitors in both Novice and Walk/Trot are not eligible for other
Walk/Trot/Canter classes. So, bring your babies to the walk trot classes, great experience and a lot of fun!

fewer horses but entered more classes. We have temporarily
tabled some plans for expansions and updates. We feel this is
a time to be judicious about spending, although we do feel
things are starting to turn around.

I understand that horseback riding will expose me to above normal risks. These risks include collisions, obstacles, variation in terrain and surface/subsurface conditions, and unexpected
actions of a horse, such as kicking, biting, rearing, bucking, striking, rolling, bolting, or running away from danger by trotting, cantering or galloping. I also understand that I will be exposed to
inherent risks of equine activity including but not limited to the unpredictability of an equine reaction to cattle, other animals, and sudden movement of people, sounds, and unfamiliar objects. I
further understand that horses have a propensity to behave in ways that may result in injury, harm or death to a person on or around it. I agree that I assume and acknowledge these and other
dangers that are inherent in the activity of horseback riding. I agree that I am responsible for my own safety. I agree that I have my own medical coverage. I agree that the FQHR-MI, their

claimed conduct of myself, I will indemnify and hold them harmless for all damages and costs, including reasonable actual attorney fees. I agree that the consideration for this release to be
binding on me, my heirs and assigns that I am permitted to participate in FQHR-MI activities or ride on property rented or in use for events. I specifically affirm and agree that, this release
constitutes a wavier of liability beyond the provisions of the Michigan Equine Activity Liability Act 1994 P.A. 351. I agree that Michigan law governs the interruption and enforceability of this
release. I acknowledge that I am eighteen years of age or older, and I am signing this release on my own behalf and on the behalf of my minor children, our heirs, representatives and assigns.
Please read carefully before signing.
I apply to ride horses/ride in the arena/ride on trails and participate in or observe equine events provided and
sponsored by Foundation Quarter Horse Registry-Michigan Affiliate FQHR-MI at the facilities indicated above.
