Grand Valley FTC Spring Trial Results

Grand Valley FTC Spring Trial March 27-28, 2010
The rain held out, there was a little wind but another successful trial was put on at the famous Ionia Field Trial grounds by Jim Cipponeri and crew of the Grand Valley FTC.
This year Jim couldn't ride a horse so he learned better deligation and Napoleonic pointing ability and amazingly to everyones eyes it worked.
