Farrier
Symposium Topics & Speakers - 13 CE Hours
September 24th - 25th, 2009
Groton,
Connecticut
Welcome to
the Farrier Program portion of the NEAEP’s 2010 An Invitation To Excellence
Annual Symposium. The NEAEP understands the importance of developing and
maintaining a strong working relationship between veterinarians and farriers
as one of the key components to a successful equine practice. In our
continuing efforts to foster and promote this relationship, the NEAEP is
proud to announce the program for the Farrier portion of our Annual
Symposium. Last year’s program was a resounding success and we look forward
to continuing to improve on that experience with this year’s new list of
speakers and topics. The NEAEP Board of Directors includes several farriers
- Dave Birdsall, Bob Pethick, Dew Golden and George Fitzgerald - making us unique among
current equine organizations. We are excited about the unique perspective
we gain from the direct input from our farrier Board Members, such as the
development of this year’s farrier program. We look forward to seeing you
in Connecticut
this year!
