May 2003 The NM Horse Fair was a huge success. Chris's clinics were busy despite being on the same time as Josh Lyons! The favorite seemed to be the behavior (problem solving) session where people asked about issues with their own horses. Neon lived up to her reputation as queen of all things and kept the crowds entertained with her arrogance and attitude!

July 5,6,7 2002: New Mexico Horse Fair at the State Fair Grounds in Albuquerque. Chris did a problem solving clinic at the Horse Fair and used Ahmed, a Peruvian Paso stallion as a demo horse. This was only Ahmed's second time off the ranch where he was born and it was his first time in an indoor arena! As you can see by the photos, Ahmed did great! Chris also spend time with Dan Grunewald and Curt Pate, who did clinics at the Horse Fair.
