From The President

David W. Williams

July 22, 2019

The show season is culminating to a huge crescendo. TWHBEA World Versatility, The Summer
Sizzler, The TWHBEA National Futurity and The Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration
will all take place over the next month.
The excitement fills the air on who could be the next World Grand Champion, many new stars will shine
through. I will sit in my box at the Celebration and, do as I always do, look up pedigrees on TWHBEA
Ipeds as the winners are called out. I will see a new star on the horizon. There will be a newcomer that
always catches our eye that could develop into the next impact stallion of our breed.
Many yearling sales will take place over the next month and there is talk already on who has the best ones.
I am so fortunate that my occupation is such that I’m kind of like a baseball scout. We look at a lot of year-
lings and try to separate the ones that could be Famous from the rest. We look for those with the “Right
Stuff” to be our showring stars of the future.
For 80 years now the Celebration has crowned the Tennessee Walking Horse World Grand Champion.
From Strolling Jim in 1939 to Gen A’ Mighty in 2018 we have cheered for each and every one. The thrill
of the Celebration and the memories that are made there will last a lifetime. I urge you, if you haven’t
already, to make those plans to attend the 2019 edition of the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebra-
tion.
Spring breeding has ended and we are in FULL SHOW HORSE MODE! Come see us during the Cele-
bration, let’s share the stories of our superstars of the past and offer our insights on the stars of the future.

As Always, It has been my pleasure to be your President.

Executive Notes

Rory R. Williams

Here it is August and the summer heat, storms and horse shows are reeling and careening toward each
other, coming ever-closer to the focal point of the biggest event of the year, when all Tennessee Walking
Horses© are revered and celebrated for their qualities of conformation and gait; when, unknowingly for
some, we pay homage to our forefathers working on farms that bred the right qualities into their livestock for the
best light-utility horse in the world, that rode or plowed for hours in comfort or with ease.
Those horses that deserve to be registered at birth, owned and cared for well, and truly deserve the celebration
that’s coming, also have a place in our future. Show horses, trail horses, pasture pets – we must continue to sup-
port the breed itself by registering, transferring, breeding, recording the pedigrees, and exhibiting the breed for all
it’s worth. We owe it to our past and the future to stay involved in the associations of the industry as well. Plan,
engage, review, react – maintain relevancy, responsiveness and responsibility, be right and be ready.
Here on the staff, we continue to work for all of you entering the business needed to keep the horses and the breed
going in the right direction and to keep up the wonderful pedigrees and breeding lines. We keep the show records
tied to the breeding lines for you, so that you all can breed selectively and wisely. TWHBEA™ executives are
constantly working with staff to improve processes and functions for all of you to make your lives, that are so busy,
a little easier when dealing with us. To that point, soon you all will see drastic improvements to the IPEDS™ look
and services. Additionally, the telephone services complaints have not fallen on deaf ears, so to speak, and we’re at-
tempting a remedy to those problems to get you connected with the right department or person faster and without
mishap.
Thank you to all our sponsors, volunteers, exhibitors and trainers for the wonderful outpouring of support for the
World Versatility Championship show and the TWHBEA™ Summer Sizzler©! Without you all, the effort would
have been for naught. But, because of all of you we can continue to host and conduct wonderful events such as
these.
Coming up shortly is the National Futurity – the 81st year of this show. Many changes were implemented this year
and we pray you will be receptive to those changes as the leaders and participant committee designed them to be
sustaining for the future of the breed, not just another jackpot or showcase horse show but returning to a program
more of a true Futurity.
God bless you all, and we hope to see you at the Celebration in our Satellite Office, or on the grounds and in the
stands!
Walk on, Tennessee Walking Horses©, Walk on!!
