Equine event:

Bethany, MO: The Horsemanship Clinic, held over the weekend in the Bethany area, was moved to another venue just outside of town at the Shields’ family residence for fear of possible rain. The event taught riders what to expect during competition and what the judges would look for during the showing. The organization’s ultimate goal is focusing on helping children discover the sport. Pictured here are Oakley Hannah (far left) and her sister Hurley Hannah (right) who rode their horses around the barn at a steady pace.--Republican-Clipper photo
