Dear Ohio Valley Friesian Horse Association members,
There have been some inquiries as to attending a Judges Clinic. The FHANA board is trying to organize one this fall, and the FHANA Members Council has agreed to help promote this clinic.
How: Wil Thyssen has generously agreed to provide these clinics again.
When: in coordination with the 5th circuit in November, in the East and the West.
Cost: ~ $275 per person
What: This clinic explains how to judge a Friesian horse. You will study and learn all about desirable and less desirable traits and how the judges make their decisions. This will help to evaluate your own horses. A book will be provided.
To make this clinic feasible, at least 30 participants are needed — 15 per site
**The FHANA Members council has asked for us to pass this information on to our chapter members. And then pass the number of interested members on to the FHANA board. Please message our MFHC in messenger if you would possibly be interested in attending the Judges Clinic this November.
This event is organized by the FHANA board with enough participants ONLY.

I would like to provide an update regarding the progress of the photographs.

Laura Holsinger-Jonsson Nmt has delivered exceptional work. She has informed me that the photo completion is estimated to be approximately two weeks. She has a substantial volume of photographs and is diligently working to edit and post them on her website.

Please remember that all individuals, with the exception of the runners, are volunteering their time to make this event possible. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
