Honor Roll—For continuing Excellence
RMS Lippyluver Luc G-11987 HOF

Luc made his third appearance at Montana Mule Days recently, and it was his time to shine. Performing magnificently he earned two handsome embroidered garment bags, a Montana Silver Belt buckle and 14 ribbons. Luc’s crowning glory was to finish the show as Champion Halter Gelding, High Point Performance Donkey, High Point Driving Donkey, and the Grand Champion Overall Driving Donkey.

Showmanship was his first opportunity to appear before Judge Blemore. Making a terrific first impression he placed fifth in a class of 14 mules. In Donkey Obstacle Driving Luc was the only donkey to do all the challenges including docking. Somehow he dug deep into his heart to muster up the courage to chase cattle during the team penning class. We were elated!

We enjoyed a formal early spring trail ride with all horses and Luc was a photo of the day winner at www.equusite.com in March. A feature article written about the Kingma Donkeys was picked up by two magazines, a newspaper and a farm journal covering the western states. Lots of terrific responses were received from this media blitz.

www.classicequinedesign.com launched a website to showcase what our donkeys are capable of doing, it’s filled with stories and wonderful photography. Luc invites you to stop in for a visit at www.teamdonk.org

Here’s to RMS Lippyluver Luc’s third Honor Roll Continuing Excellence award.
