Evaluators for the event were Marylu Watkins of Moscow and Sharon Cousins of Olin. Participating members learned about clothing selection and clothing construction by modeling, interviewing and receiving feedback from the evaluators. They learned about the design elements and art principles, fit, construction processes, textiles and their appropriateness in clothing for various needs. The youth also developed an understanding of how clothing and personal appearance influences perception and communication with others, and contributes to self-esteem. The horse arena on the county fair grounds will be the training site.
Youth can bring their horses to the first clinic unless otherwise notified.
Youth will learn how to properly handle their animals in the ring, grooming techniques and the management and care of their animals. Sue Voss, Devon Moeller and Wayne Neville conduct the clinics. The teachers have been doing the youth horse clinics for several years. They all have experience with horses and are knowledgeable about the youth program. The horse show has been gaining in popularity at the fair.
