This is going to be a huge hands on clinic! The precertification will be on the 27th. But that doesn't mean that you have to focus on that. If you want to draw clips, cool. If you want to build roadsters that's cool too! Bring some shoes, steel, or even aluminum we don't care, it's all about what you want to do!

2nd Annual “Shoeing for the Kids Day" is coming up soon and we are planning to
expand it this year - offering food, music, and a trail ride the following day to test out
those new shoes. Last year we raised over $2,000 for the Children’s Miracle Network.
This year all of the proceeds will go to the St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and we are
hoping to surpass last year. Shoes and nails will be provided by our sponsors. Hope to
see you there! Location and date to be announced.

Contest Update:
We are moving our contest back to the 2nd weekend in June. We encourage everyone
to come out regardless of experience. We plan on adding our 4 man light horse
concave with specimen shoe contest. Dates and location to be announced.
