January 12th- 5:30p-7:30p AJ Rodeo (riding)

January 26th - 5:30p-7:30p ( no riding) 

We will have a guest speaker from Arizona mobile vet. After he speaks (about 30-60 minutes) we will then have horse demonstrations. What's that you ask? 

Demonstrations or illustrated talks may be on any horse-related subject.

                               8-10 years of age - 4 minute presentation

                              11-13 years of age - 8 minute presentation

                              14-18 years of age - 12 minute presentation

Notes and visuals may be used. Visuals should be neat, legible, and large enough to read easily. Contestants should note their major references.
