Sharing Knowledge
by Karen Pickering
A crackling fire, a starlit sky and good friends made it difficult to pull myself away from my recent adventure, but the tools I took from Raye Lochert's weekend clinic will last long after the campfire is cold. Raye coached us on proper trail etiquette, how to pack items necessary for the ride, and techniques for working through issues with your horse while in a group setting. He did an excellent job of leaving all of us with tools to improve our experiences out on the trail. We hope to have him back up here again, but in the meantime you can ask Raye questions through our “Ask the Expert” section of www.nwhorsesource.com. He will personally answer your question, plus we'll post it on the site so everyone can learn from your input.
I encourage you to spend some time reviewing the great ideas all of our writers share every month. Also, don't forget to check out the ads as you look through the magazine. We have many great products and services available here in the Northwest, and you may find the exact item you've been looking for. Whether you keep your horse on your own property or board with a stable or a friend, it’s time to start thinking about your horse's winter home...and this issue brings you the tools you need to do just that.
Thank you for choosing NWHS as a resource for your horse care needs. Please let us know if there is anything else we can bring you. I consider it a privilege to publish this magazine every month, and to meet many of you on the trails or at shows and clinics. I had the chance to do that this past weekend, and for that I'm grateful.
Have a great September and remember to ride!
