The Nevada County Fairgrounds was filled with horse enthusiasts this past weekend as exhibitors competed in the 2008 Mother Lode Horse Show. This annual three-day event gives spectators an opportunity to observe participants work with their horses as they compete in Youth, Driving, English, Halter and Western Shows. At the conclusion of each class, competitors are awarded their placing, a demonstration of achievement in horsemanship. The results of the Mother Lode Horse Show are listed below.
The public is invited to enter their horses in the Fair’s “Halter Show,” scheduled for Thursday, August 7, at 8 am. Interested exhibitors can enter online at http://www.nevadacountyfair.com/ or visit the Fair office on McCourtney Road.
