TACK SWAP – Deb Carver is heading up the committee
to run our first “Used Tack and Mini-Horse Fair” this spring (if it ever
comes). In addition to and opportunity to dispose of that weird device
that was supposed to make Old Dobbin a model steed and get some good
stuff, Deb would like to run demonstrations and horse and trailer sales.
The event would promote JCHC, local horse related businesses and just be
fun. Of course, she will need help with this, so please sign on.
Ideally, you can come to the organizational dinner at the Penland’s on
February 10 at 6pm, but that is not a volunteer requirement. Call Deb at
303-674-6546 or email carverd10@msn.com to sign on and get more info.
JANUARY MEETING – We actually managed to pull off a
reasonable well-attended meeting at Beau Jo’s on January 25. This was
the first of our fourth Thursday meetings, and we encountered no
problems with weather or parking. Dan and Beth Lincoln presented a
program on exotic horseback trips to Zimbabwe, France and India. As soon
as you are ready to go, call Beth.
FEBRUARY MEETING – Dr. Ashleigh Olds, DVM has just
opened Aspen Creek Large Animal Clinic in Conifer. Dr. Ashleigh, late of
the Golden Animal Hospital, has extensive expertise in treatment of
equine dentistry, lameness, surgery, radiology and emergency care. She
will come to the February 22nd meeting to talk to us about
care of horses in winter and whatever else comes up. This will be a good
opportunity to find out about this new mountain resource. You will
rarely get the chance to quiz a vet over beer and pizza, so please take
advantage of the opportunity.
