XTREME HORSEMANSHIP CHALLENGE WITH GLENN STEWART
A TWO DAY CLINIC AND COMPETITION at the EAGLESHAM AND DISTRICT ANNUAL FAIR JULY 22 AND 23, 2011 AT THE FAIRGROUNDS
The Eaglesham & District Ag. Soc. Fair committee is excited to announce a 2 day clinic and competition with Glenn Stewart, 2010 Calgary Stampede Extreme Cowboy Champion, at our fair this year. Extreme Cowboy is one of the newest and fastest growing equestrian events in which horse and rider test their horsemanship abilities as they manoeuver through a series of obstacles and tasks demonstrating skill and speed.
Join Glenn for this fun and fast-paced two day clinic and competition that gives participants an opportunity to explore this exciting new event and expand horsemanship knowledge. Learn about the horsemanship skills the judges are looking for and how to prepare and develop a great horse on diverse obstacles while at the same time building your fundamentals and skills, from trail riding to elements of jumping, dressage, ranch work, reining and cutting.
All levels of horses and riders are welcome.
Check out Glenn's website at www.thehorseranch.com for footage of Glenn's winning runs at the 2010 Calgary Stampede, as well as his recent winning run in Craig Cameron's Extreme Cowboy Clinic and Competition held in April 2011.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.
