learn to fairly easily by going to riding school However when it comes to selecting his own horse he faces many choices Parents of horsecrazy kids frequently wish they could learn more about the sport before they invest in saddles and other So it was with real interest I visited the Novice Horse manship Clinic put on recently at Farms 4lh Line Hoping to fill a real need Ron and Joan Lis ter together with their son Steve daughtertn law Marg and daughter Jennifer organized a program suitable for the neophyte horse owner or parent How to buy The three hour clinic consisted of lectures and demon strations using school horses and the stable facilities Steve and Jennifer Lister showed the interested students how to choose a horse what to look for in conformation tempera and breed Joan Lister and Jenny described the different kinds of English tack available how to buy fit and care for saddles and bridles After busy Steven had got his breath back he demonstrated schooling a young horse featuring groundwork leading and longeing Will hold Unlike many formal climes held in an indoor arena with students arranged on bleachers like a lecture hall the casual farm atmosphere of Mounlainview mode the clinic a plea social event as well as a valuable learning experience Spectators visited back and forth while admiring the newest foals and felt free toask many questions It so good to see a riding school doing this sort of thing for the novice When youre starting out its often very hard to find information and answers to the many many questions that arise Books are helpful but not as good as a practical demonstration The Listers will hold more clinics if enough Interest is shown So if you wish to attend give Joan Lister a call at 3598 and tell her DANCING
