KNOXVILLE — A brand new event, The Tennessee Horse Expo, is taking place at the Williamson County Ag Expo Park
in Franklin, Tennessee October 16, 17 and 18, 2015.
The Expo will feature presentations by leading industry experts and clinicians from across the United States. Among the many equine experts giving daily workshops, demos and clinics will include: Craig Cameron, host of the RFD-TV show Ride Smart, featuring General Training & Problem Solving with Horses and Horsemanship clinics; Steve Edwards, renowned for his work in training Mules, Donkeys and their owners; Susan Harris and Peggy Brown offering a variety of presentations including Anatomy in Motion TM - The Visible Horse, Anatomy In Motion TM - The Visible Rider and Centered Riding®.
One low ticket price provides attendees with entrance and access to all events, including clinics, entertainment, presentations, workshops, trade show shopping, and a chance to see horses up close and personal.
The Tennessee Horse Expo came to fruition when the Williamson County 4-H
began looking for ways to ensure sustainability and quality for future
generations of Williamson County 4-H’ers. Matt Horseman, UT Extension Agent
Williamson County, said, “The program has long taken pride in its ability to
provide innovative learning opportunities to help kids strive to find the
best in themselves. Prior to the establishment of the Tennessee Horse Expo,
the group had the strenuous task of trying to coordinate year around
fundraising opportunities to make these experiences possible.” He added “Additionally, partners and clientele wanted to establish a scholarship to help 4-H’ers get off on the right foot upon graduation. Year around fundraising was stressful and took away from vital programming. As such, the Williamson County 4-H was looking for the opportunity to take on
one large fundraiser to ensure sustainability and quality for future generations. Thanks to the dedication and consultation of a very loyal 4-H family, the Williamson County 4-H is able to successfully tackle their largest endeavor ever.”
Applications are now being accepted for various types of participants at the
Tennessee Horse Expo 2015. Openings are available for: Extreme Cowboy Race
