Partnership in Endurance Xcellence©
Seaway
Valley Arabian Horse Association (SVAHA) is
pleased and excited to present an APEX team clinic (www.apex-us.org)
for the first time in Canada. Have
you thought about distance riding and asked yourself, Can
my horse and I do the distance? Are you already
competing in distance riding and wondered, Am
I doing the right things in my training program? Did I make the right choices
during a competition? How can my horse and I ‘peak’ at just the right
time? Are
you a pit
crew and want to learn more about how to help your team?
Are
you a veterinarian
or
lay judge and want to learn more about what to watch for during
endurance competition or training? Then
this clinic is FOR YOU! Join us as John
Crandell III
(2007 Horseman of the Year and 2006
Endurance “triple crown” winner), Stagg Newman (former
AERC President and top competitor with over 20 100 mile wins), and Dr.
