dont forget the roll of paper towels, been known to wipe ones butt right before going into the show ring (gross i know) and then wipes to clean off your hands after that! (thumbsup)
black electircal tape, zip ties, safety pins, cards, calendar, powdered jello, extra bolts & nuts, socket set, extension cords, chain, locks, black sharpie marker, fence stiples. first aid kit, pad of paper, syringe, bolus gun. I am sure I have more little items like this.
Also leather wipes to clean halters, clean up wipes for misc stuff, pliers, wire, socket set, small air compressor for tires ( not air in calf!), glucose tablets for me, puppy food & cookies!!!!!
An assortment of most of the above ... plus a few more things - ziploc bags, a new package of socks, and usually someone's dirty clothes they threw in there from the last trip.
good idea on the ziplocs. i usually have some dirty clothes in mine also and a couple ball caps. the showbox seems to be the catch all at the shows.
COOKIES wouldn't last 2 seconds with my boys around. We are headed to a show tomorrow and the things I bought to take are almost gone.
I will have to get some leather wipes also. I usually end up final blooming our halters.
I forgot another thing I like to bring and that is BABY WIPES. they come in handy. We carry a cheap microwave in our trailer that we use when we go to shows it is great.
