Getting Started with Horses Returns!

August 14, 2008


After a successful run in the fall of 2007, the Horse Industry Association of Alberta is launching its 2008 “Hoofin’ Around” tour with seminars for new or prospective horse owners in six Alberta locations.

The evening seminars cover the topics: Myths, Mysteries and Miseries; Choosing Your Path; What a Horse Needs; What a Rider Needs; Stable Selection; Keeping Horses at Home; and Buying the Right Horse. Presenters for the evening seminars are four well-known horse industry professionals: Ron Anderson, Les Burwash, Muffy Knox and Kippy Maitland-Smith.

Seminars are scheduled for Cochrane, Edson, Millarville, Pincher Creek, Rocky Mountain House and Sherwood Park during October and November. Cost is just $25 for an individual, $20 for a second person on the same registration. The seminars run from 6 – 9:30 in the evening.

Come yourself, bring a friend or send someone you know who has been asking you for information on how to get involved with horses. Visit www.albertahorseindustry.ca for more information or to register, or call (403) 948-8521.
