2012 Fair Leaders Packet

Exhibitor Guide – Schedule found on this website is to be considered most current!

All members will haul in on Wednesday evening between 4 and 7 and haul out Sunday evening starting at 6pm.

Haul-in and Vet Check reminders: This will be a busy haul in time and patients and grace will need to be at its height! We will be prepared to bring everyone in as quickly as possible.
Vet check will take place from 4 to 7. Do your part and be ready to have your member unload and line up while the driver takes the trailer for parking. Don’t get in line for vet check until your horse is uncovered (blankets, wraps, etc). Our copy of your horse certificate will be handed back during vet check.

Mandatory meeting will be Wednesday evening starting at 7:30. Sign in for the meeting will begin at 7. All members must be in attendance in order to participate in the fair. If you can't make it, you must have a representative in attendance for you. If you can't make it Wednesday evening, due to scheduling conflict, email Jessica Carr (jessica@northwesthorsepark.com) to make other arrangements.
