Pin Oak Ponies Show Their True Colors…and it was all PINK!
March 19, 2010 – Pink was the color of the Night. Opening weekend at the Pin Oak Charity Horse Show was very special.  Great applause could be heard throughout the arena as the 2010 breast cancer survivors Beverly Cantrell, Laura McCleary, Marg Curtis, Dorothy Ashby, San Nuckols, Sharon Pallatt, Harriet Glassman, Sally Orenstein, Ida Ginsburg, Joan Cantrell rode through the arena and announced, or shall we say were “tickled pink,” that they rasied over $10,000.00 for “Ride for the Cure in 2010”.
All of the proceeds will be divided equally between the UPHA Susan G. Komen Foundation and the Nellie B. Connally Breast Cancer Center at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. These two phenomenal programs lead the world in the development of innovative treatments, education about the disease and the continuous search for a cure.Â
The winners of the Ladies’ Five-Gaited Class taking first place was Joan Cantrell and horse BlueBonnet’s Challenger and taking second place was May Chadick and horse Oscar DeLa Hoya.  Â
