Equine Canada is pleased to announce that a Breed Sport Judge Clinic with Karen Homer-Brown is set to take place in Edmonton, AB on April 5 and 6, 2014.
Homer-Brown has a wealth of experience training, competing, selling, and breeding a wide range of breeds, from Arabians to Morgans to Hackneys. Her competitive career includes winning World Champion titles in the Morgan Carriage Pleasure Driving and Obstacle Pair divisions.
She has been judging breed sports for over 30 years, and holds 14 licenses with four different equestrian organizations. Her judging experience includes multiple national and world championships. As a breed sport judge clinician, Homer-Brown is sought-after internationally, and has put on clinics not only in North America, but also in England, Brazil, and South Africa.
Clinic participants will have the opportunity to spend two days learning judging techniques and guidelines from Homer-Brown that match the criteria for General Breed Sport Judge accreditation. Covered divisions will include Arabian, Hackney, Morgan, Saddlebred, Welsh Pony and Cob, Saddle Seat Equitation, and Road Horse.
Current and prospective judges are encouraged to attend in order to help ensure judge status maintenance. Certified instructors and coaches may also use the clinic for professional development updating hours. Additionally, all breed sport enthusiasts interested in gaining knowledge of everything from show ring techniques to current rules are welcome to attend.
Specific details, including the venue, will be announced in the near future. For further information please contact Wendy Gayfer, Equine Canada Non-Olympic FEI Disciplines Program Coordinator, by phone at 613-287-1515 x 125 or email, wgayfer@equinecanada.ca.
