We are proud to announce the first annual Piedmont Horse Expo presented in conjunction with the Virginia Tech Cooperative Extension Office. This event is intended to educate the horse community, showcase vendors whose products and services would be of interest to the equestrians, and best of all will allow local 4-H horse and pony clubs to promote themselves while raising money to support their ongoing activities.
Piedmont Horse Expo, March 29, 2007: 9AM-4PM, Culpeper Agricultural Enterprise
There will be a full schedule of talks throughout the day. Speakers include veterinarians, trainers, farriers, hay experts, pasture management experts, and equine nutritionists. In addition to the talks, there will be live horse demonstrations. The intimate, informal, setting will allow ample opportunity to ask questions both during and after the talks and demos. In between talks there will be plenty of time to walk through the vendors showcase and familiarize yourself with a myriad of products and services available to both horse and rider.
There will also be pony rides and a petting zoo. Demonstrations include horsemanship, trailer loading, pre-purchase exam protocol, hay evaluation, barn electrical safety, and a great Draft Horse exhibition. As you can see there will be a full day of education, activity, and fun. We hope you will join us.
