August Happenings
Aug 3rd, 2011 by Sharon
We had another great ride at Kelly’s Ford Equestrian Center for our mid-summer general membership meeting. We seem to get a break in the weather! It was cool in the shade of the woods and the horses and riders appeared to enjoy getting out for a change in scenery. We went over our activities for the remainder of the year. First coming up is :
CLINIC AUGUST 20th. Equine first aid or “what to do until the Vet arrives” clinic given by Dr. Martha Mellish from Keswick Equine Clinic, www.keswickequineclinic.com. After the morning session, we will have Daniela Garrett, Equine Nutritionist, talk with us on equine nutrition. The clinic will be held at Roxana and Gordan’s farm in Unionville starting at 10 am. The clinic is free to members.
SEPT 10 we will have Paige Poss return to give us a clinic on “Reading the Hoof” so mark you calendars. Paige has given us a clinic for a few years now, she is always an interesting speaker. We’d like to hear your input on what she can cover in her clinic this year for the regular attendees, or what new participants would like to join us.
Oct 22 plans are underway for a fall Judged Trail ride.
Still a lot of things to do and fun to have! Join us on facebook for regular updates on activities and local events. Post your events to our page and we can spread the word for our local equine community. Go to Virginia Appaloosa Horse Club
