Students enrolled in the equine industries management degree program at the UMC will sponsor the First Annual Equine Extravaganza on Saturday, April 21, at 6 p.m. in the University Teaching and Outreach Center Arena on the north edge of the UMC campus.  A repeat performance will take place Sunday, April 22, at 2 p.m. 

Admission to each performance is $5 for adults and $3 for children 12 and under.  To reserve tickets, contact members of the UMC Horseman’s Association or Rodeo Association.  Or contact Bobbi Bingeman by phone at 218-281-8913 or via e-mail at bjb201@mail.crk.umn.edu.  Tickets will be available at the door if space permits.

UMC equine industries management students and others will work with UMC-owned horses to showcase their dressage, rodeo, jumping, and trick riding skills.   Special events will include dressage quadrille and a reining demonstration by Crookston resident Joey Jorgenson, a UMC alumnus.  The event is scheduled to last about two hours, and concessions will be available.
