Come Horse Around With Us

The AFA and FIA are gearing up for another exciting convention that brings together equine professionals and service providers from around the world. Basically, if you ride a horse, own a horse, shoe a horse, sell horse supplies or provide health care for horses, this is the event for you.

By participating, you will meet farriers, veterinarians and horse owners from around the world who have gathered to enjoy demonstrations, lectures and seminars and shop the FIA’s MarketPlace, the world’s largest market for farrier supplies and products. Click here if you are an exhibitor.

An exciting addition to this year’s lineup is the guest appearance of John Lyon’s, “America’s Most Trusted Horseman,” one of the world’s most sought-after trainers, clinicians and teachers whose training methods have influenced every breed and every level of the industry.

As a special feature of this year’s convention, attendees can promote their services, organization or club by purchasing a tabletop display. The space is intended for information only; selling is prohibited. Click here for more information. Tabletops cost $100, and organizations are limited to one space. If you’re interested, act now. After January 1, 2009, the price will increase to $150.
