If you were in Timmonsville, South Carolina this past Saturday at Palmetto Arabians’ Open House, then you were treated to an outstanding day filled with beautiful horses, educational enlightenment, delicious food, and enjoyment one would only come to expect from Frank & Sara Chisholm.
Whatever your Arabian horse passion fancies, all senses were triggered throughout the day as the Palmetto team proudly showcased the “PA” breeding program for all guests to enjoy. The collection of mares and foals (many of whom are now representing 3 & 4 generations of the Chisholm’s thoughtful breeding choices) were presented.
Guests were enlightened with informative educational sessions by horseman extraordinaire Rob Bick, who presented the spectacular PA Kid Khan under saddle. Abe Cotton graciously shared the “ins and outs” of what to look for when selecting your next Arabian horse, and then of course there was not a dry eye in the house when the champagne corks popped as we all tipped our glasses and toasted to one of the greatest sires to ever grace the Arabian horse breed – the late, great Sundance Kid V.
How thankful we are to have a breeding program such as Palmetto Arabians, and dedicated breeders Frank and Sara, to ensure the longevity of our beloved Arabian horse breed. Whether you ride, halter, or simply enjoy your horses on other levels – you can be rest assured that the Palmetto horses encompass all the beauty, athleticism, and tractability needed to enjoy and fulfill every single aspect living and enjoying the Arabian horse lifestyle.
It is no wonder why time and time again the Chisholm’s are rewarded top honors for their breeding excellence along with their stallions Sundance Kid V, Always A Jullyen V, PA Kid Khan, PA Phoenix Kid, and SF Sir Real who continue to reach new heights siring Arabian horses that fulfill the dreams of Arabian horse lovers everywhere.
Sarah O’Brien, thank you for being so welcoming, for orchestrating such a beautiful day that went off without a hitch. It may have been my first visit – but it definitely won’t be my last.
Frank and Sara, the contribution you continue to make leaves an indelible mark on the Arabian horse breed, forever.
