The Area A 4-H Horse Advisory Committee is pleased to welcome Dr. Bess Darrow, DVM and Mr. Billy Blackman, Professional Farrier to our first Area A 4-H Equine Clinic. Our focus will be on overall equine health, as well as dental and hoof concerns. There is no fee for this clinic but you must register on Eventbrite by June 5th. Lunch is provided for current 4-H members.
After the workshop, participants may make appointments and bring their horses to have dental and hoof work done. *Fees will apply. To make appointments you will need to contact Dr. Darrow or Mr. Blackman personally (see flyer for contact information.)
The Area A Horse Advisory Committee is planning a series of both educational and competitive events for youth enrolled in the 4-H Horse and “Horse-less” Horse Projects this coming 4-H year!
