| 2010 Events of Interest to Us Read this Calendar from December at the top to January at the bottom. |
| FRIDAY, APRIL 9 through SUNDAY, APRIL 11, 2010 Communicating with your Horse DAVE ELLIOTT, Master Bit-maker, Osteopath, Horseman The Bit is just a small part. Learn what else is involved. Check our clinics page for additional information Understanding the anatomy of the topline of the horse and examining how the mechanics of a bit affect your ability to achieve correct communication with your horse whether it is for enjoyable recreational riding or high-end performance riding. Contact Ken @ 780-449-0749 Rider fees $350 for weekend. Spectators $25 Friday night, $40 per day Saturday and/or Sunday. $80 for weekend. Friday night is compulsory for anyone wanting to attend any other day. |
REGULAR WEEKLY "ROUTINE"
Our day starts about 7 am with morning feeding chores for the horses, then breakfast, coffee and
returning calls follows. Between 8 am and 9 am or after 9 pm is the best time to reach Ken "live" on the
telephone.
Ken usually starts working with horses about 9 am. This is a good time to watch Ken at work and get an
understanding of his philosophy. Ken welcomes spectators and is always willing to explain what he is
doing and seeing. While you are always welcome to drop in, his schedule is variable, so it is best to
call and book a time when you know he can interact with you.
Evenings are generally occupied with lessons. Again, you are welcome to drop in and watch, but
because our lesson program is unique and not routine, you should probably call first to find out what is
happening before you show up.

| SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 2010 - LAVERN SCHMIDT - Halter Showmanship Show season is coming - need a refresher or an introduction? Lavern has been judging and teaching all levels of horsemanship for many years and brings his wealth of experience to share with us. Morning session by invitation only, afternoon will be open to others who wish to attend. We will probably divide into two groups - first group will be introduction to showmanship, second group will be refinement. Recommend those who are planning to attend the refinement come early and watch the intro group and those in the intro group stay to watch the refinement class. Cost $35 for the day. |
